ReadsToDistmap: do not require maxReadLength #508

Open robmaz opened 5 years ago

robmaz commented 5 years ago

-maxReadLength appears to be a required option, but why?

magicDGS commented 5 years ago

Can you provide more information? I need the command line that you use and which error was produced after running it. Thanks!

By the way, it isn't an argument in the ReadsToDistmap, but an argument of the ReadLengthReadFilter.

As an optional filter for the trim/filter pipeline on uploading, if you specify --readFilter ReadLengthReadFilter you should also provide --maxReadLength to select the maximum-length to keep on uploading.
