Hi, Do you have a workflow that takes MAGs produced in Tara Oceans plankton microbiome survey, that uses DESMAN to come up with the final results?
I have tried DESMAN today and the main problem I noticed is DESMAN uses Python 2
so It seems we can not have a seamless workflow since it is not possible to install both of them in same virtualenv. We still can generate output files DESMAN requires as an input.
I would be willing to rewrite into python 3 if it will make integration easier?
@chrisquince, That would be very good, also I would like to help with that. Initially we switched to Python 3 because snakemake does not supports Python 2 but In DESMAN you have snakemake, how does it work at the moment? Do you guys use virtualenv or just install everything system-wide?
Yes it is rather clunky we create two conda environments for Python 2 and 3 and we switch between them within the snakemake. OK lets do it! I actually do not think it will be that hard and I can rationalise some of the code as I go.
Hi all,
I was wondering if there was any update on this? I am starting to work with DESMAN and would love to know if there is an easier way to export anvio binning results to DESMAN.
Thanks! Varun
Going from anvi'o to DESMAN (https://github.com/chrisquince/DESMAN) to deconvolute MAGs with enough variation should be seamless. This may require changes in the DESMAN codebase as well for maximum elegance.
@ozcan, please consider getting some familiarity with DESMAN, so we can sit together and design this the right way :)
