nf-core/fetchngs
Pipeline to fetch metadata and raw FastQ files from public databases
1.11.0
). The latest
stable release is
1.12.0
.
Define where the pipeline should find input data and save output data.
File containing SRA/ENA/GEO/DDBJ identifiers one per line to download their associated metadata and FastQ files.
string
^\S+\.(csv|tsv|txt)$
Specifies the type of identifier provided via --input
- available options are 'sra' and 'synapse'.
string
Comma-separated list of ENA metadata fields to fetch before downloading data.
string
The default list of fields used by the pipeline can be found at the top of the bin/sra_ids_to_runinfo.py
script within the pipeline repo. This pipeline requires a minimal set of fields to download FastQ files i.e. 'run_accession,experiment_accession,library_layout,fastq_ftp,fastq_md5'
. Full list of accepted metadata fields can be obtained from the ENA API.
Comma-separated list of ENA metadata fields used to create a separate 'id_mappings.csv' and 'multiqc_config.yml' with selected fields that can be used to rename samples in general and in MultiQC.
string
experiment_accession,run_accession,sample_accession,experiment_alias,run_alias,sample_alias,experiment_title,sample_title,sample_description
Name of supported nf-core pipeline e.g. 'rnaseq'. A samplesheet for direct use with the pipeline will be created with the appropriate columns.
string
Value for 'strandedness' entry added to samplesheet created when using '--nf_core_pipeline rnaseq'.
string
auto
The default is 'auto' which can be used with nf-core/rnaseq v3.10 onwards to auto-detect strandedness during the pipeline execution.
Force download FASTQ files via sra-tools instead of via the ENA FTP.
boolean
If FTP connections are blocked on your network use this flag to force the pipeline to download data using sra-tools instead of the ENA FTP.
Only download metadata for public data database ids and don't download the FastQ files.
boolean
dbGaP repository key.
string
Path to a JWT cart file used to access protected dbGAP data on SRA using the sra-toolkit. Users with granted access to controlled data can download the JWT cart file for the study from the SRA Run Selector upon logging in. The JWT file can only be used on cloud platforms and is valid for 1 hour upon creation.
The output directory where the results will be saved. You have to use absolute paths to storage on Cloud infrastructure.
string
Email address for completion summary.
string
^([a-zA-Z0-9_\-\.]+)@([a-zA-Z0-9_\-\.]+)\.([a-zA-Z]{2,5})$
Set this parameter to your e-mail address to get a summary e-mail with details of the run sent to you when the workflow exits. If set in your user config file (~/.nextflow/config
) then you don't need to specify this on the command line for every run.
Path to Synapse configuration file
string
Parameters used to describe centralised config profiles. These should not be edited.
Git commit id for Institutional configs.
string
master
Base directory for Institutional configs.
string
https://raw.githubusercontent.com/nf-core/configs/master
If you're running offline, Nextflow will not be able to fetch the institutional config files from the internet. If you don't need them, then this is not a problem. If you do need them, you should download the files from the repo and tell Nextflow where to find them with this parameter.
Institutional config name.
string
Institutional config description.
string
Institutional config contact information.
string
Institutional config URL link.
string
Set the top limit for requested resources for any single job.
Maximum number of CPUs that can be requested for any single job.
integer
16
Use to set an upper-limit for the CPU requirement for each process. Should be an integer e.g. --max_cpus 1
Maximum amount of memory that can be requested for any single job.
string
128.GB
^\d+(\.\d+)?\.?\s*(K|M|G|T)?B$
Use to set an upper-limit for the memory requirement for each process. Should be a string in the format integer-unit e.g. --max_memory '8.GB'
Maximum amount of time that can be requested for any single job.
string
240.h
^(\d+\.?\s*(s|m|h|d|day)\s*)+$
Use to set an upper-limit for the time requirement for each process. Should be a string in the format integer-unit e.g. --max_time '2.h'
Less common options for the pipeline, typically set in a config file.
Display help text.
boolean
Display version and exit.
boolean
Method used to save pipeline results to output directory.
string
The Nextflow publishDir
option specifies which intermediate files should be saved to the output directory. This option tells the pipeline what method should be used to move these files. See Nextflow docs for details.
Email address for completion summary, only when pipeline fails.
string
^([a-zA-Z0-9_\-\.]+)@([a-zA-Z0-9_\-\.]+)\.([a-zA-Z]{2,5})$
An email address to send a summary email to when the pipeline is completed - ONLY sent if the pipeline does not exit successfully.

boolean
Incoming hook URL for messaging service

Incoming hook URL for messaging service. Currently, MS Teams and Slack are supported.
Boolean whether to validate parameters against the schema at runtime
boolean
true
Show all params when using --help
boolean
By default, parameters set as hidden in the schema are not shown on the command line when a user runs with --help
. Specifying this option will tell the pipeline to show all parameters.
Validation of parameters fails when an unrecognised parameter is found.
boolean
By default, when an unrecognised parameter is found, it returns a warinig.
Validation of parameters in lenient more.
boolean
Allows string values that are parseable as numbers or booleans. For further information see JSONSchema docs.
