can we specify toml for a sequencing run via the API? #30

Is there a way to specify toml for a sequencing run via the API? We could specify a particular toml for a playback / simulation run. Looking forward to your reply. Best wishes Claus

The output of the find_protocol function in the start_protocol example is a toml filename without the ".toml" extension, so:

Here: https://github.com/nanoporetech/minknow_api/blob/master/python/examples/start_protocol.py#L432

You could specify your own toml reference rather than searching for the right protocol to start. It might help to dump this identifier in the existing protocol in order to get an idea for how the identifier is presented.

I hope that helps.
