Using as a library #21

Open anuradhawick opened 3 years ago

Thanks for this piece of work. I am very interested in using the hashing method in TGS reads analysis and wonder how I would use this as a CMake module, etc. Are you planning to give this support. Some direction on this concern is highly appreciated.

Example use case; hash a million sequences (using LSH) and compare with another seq of sequences. Finally estimate similarity, etc.

At the moment, there are no plans for a pure library version of MetaCache.

One could of course take the core elements of the current implementation and make them into a library, but it would certainly require some time/work.
