running mag with locally installed Kraken2 database #148

Open ramakrishnas opened 3 years ago

ramakrishnas commented 3 years ago

I was trying to run mag with the local instance of Kraken2 database as opposed to compressed minikraken. But from slack discussion learned that mag is configured only to process minikraken. I believe this feature will be very helpful for other users as well.

Thanks Rama

Hi @ramakrishnas, thanks for opening this issue. mag expects a compressed database file, not necessarily minikraken. But you are right, this should be added in the future.
