Seq Package

Modules from the biolockj.module.seq package prepare sequence data or metadata prior to classification.
If included, seq modules must be ordered to run before modules from any of the other packages.


AwkFastaConverter

#BioModule biolockj.module.seq.AwkFastaConverter

Description: Convert fastq files into fasta format (required by QIIME).

Options:

  • exe.awk
  • exe.gzip

Gunzipper

#BioModule biolockj.module.seq.Gunzipper

Description: Decompress gzipped files.

Options:

  • exe.gzip

KneadData

#BioModule biolockj.module.seq.KneadData

Description: Runs the Biobakery KneadData program to remove contaminated DNA.

Options:

  • kneaddata.dbs
  • exe.kneaddata
  • exe.kneaddataParams

Multiplexer

#BioModule biolockj.module.seq.Multiplexer

Description: Multiplex samples into a single file, or two files (one with forward reads, one with reverse reads) if multiplexing paired reads.
BioLockJ modules require demultiplexed data, so if included, this must be the last module in the pipeline other than module.report modules.

Options:

  • metadata.barcodeColumn
  • metadata.filePath

PearMergeReads

#BioModule biolockj.module.seq.PearMergeReads

Description: Merge paired reads (required for RDP & QIIME). For more informations, see the online PEAR manual.

Options:

  • exe.pear
  • exe.pearParams

RarefySeqs

#BioModule biolockj.module.seq.RarefySeqs

Description: Randomly select samples to reduce all samples to the configured maximum.
Samples with less than the minimum number of reads are discarded.

Options:

  • rarefySeqs.max
  • rarefySeqs.min

SeqFileValidator

#BioModule biolockj.module.seq.SeqFileValidator

Description: This BioModule validates fasta/fastq file formats are valid and enforces min/max read lengths.

Options:

  • input.seqMaxLen
  • input.seqMinLen

TrimPrimers

#BioModule biolockj.module.seq.TrimPrimers

Description: Remove primers from reads, option to discard reads unless primers are attached to both forward and reverse reads.

Options:

  • trimPrimers.filePath
  • trimPrimers.requirePrimer
