HDF5 dependency in kallisto #83

Closed kfuku52 closed 3 years ago

kfuku52 commented 3 years ago

Also, unrelated: Newer versions of kallisto don't produce .h5 output files anymore. Should I update sanity to be kallisto version specific, or just stop looking for .h5 files alltogether?

amalgkit should check whether HDF5 is enabled in kallisto, as long as it needs .h5 as an intermediate file.

Hego-CCTB commented 3 years ago

We don't use .h5 for anything as far as I know. Kallisto usually produces 3 files: abundance.tsv, abundance.json and abundance.h5

I believe we need the .json for updating the metadata with mapping rate and the .tsv for the quantification, of course. But .h5 is unused by amalgkit.

kfuku52 commented 3 years ago

Does it mean that sanity only checks the presence of h5 and doesn't do anything about its content?

Hego-CCTB commented 3 years ago

That is correct.

kfuku52 commented 3 years ago

Alright, we don't have to check h5 then.

Hego-CCTB commented 3 years ago

sanity will not check h5 files anymore. d6464e04d31d27e52b5a1ce11d4c6f527b050d68
