Feature request: Output to stdout for Bifrost query/suppression of non-matching query sequences #83

Open cschu opened 4 months ago

Hi, I'm planning to run bifrost within automated pipelines on large metagenomic sample sets. In order to facilitate output filtering on the fly and reduce the size of the output files, I'd like to pipe the Bifrost query output through a filter script. For that, output to stdout instead of to a file would make sense.

Alternatively, suppression of query sequences without any matches via a command line parameter could be useful.

Is there something in the current parameter settings that would allow me to do so (and I have just not understood it correctly?)

Thanks!
