Blast step should create empty output S3 folders #122

Open laughedelic opened 7 years ago

laughedelic commented 7 years ago

If it doesn't and there are some samples without any hits, then the merge step won't be able to launch because the input data is "missing".

laughedelic commented 7 years ago

@eparejatobes @rtobes does it make sense at all to continue running the pipeline if some sample don't have BLAST hits at all?

rtobes commented 7 years ago

I think that yes, because in some cases some of the samples could be empty.

laughedelic commented 7 years ago

I'm removing this from the RC1 milestone, because I don't see a good way to solve it generally. A workaround for each particular case is to turn off input objects check for the merge step.

This is actually a bug, and it should be fixed one way or another.
