Project 3: HTML e-mail summaries #3

HTML e-mail summaries

We've recently implemented summary reports / e-mails in our pipelines (see NGI-RNAseq). They're basically the same as the example in the docs, but HTML and prettier (eg. a big red box if the pipeline fails).

The idea is basically to write this into core Nextflow somehow so that it's easier for others to get this functionality into their pipelines. We'd write a default template / theme which could be customised if desired. There's an issue discussing this here: https://github.com/nextflow-io/nextflow/issues/375

Data:

Any example pipeline + data can be used for this project. Just a dummy pipeline with some hardcoded channel variables would be fine.

Computing resources:

None required. Can be run locally (though could be nice to test on AWS?).

Project Lead:

Phil Ewels (@ewels).
