[1.9] - 2022-12-21

Enhancements & fixes

• Bumped minimum Nextflow version from 21.10.3 -> 22.10.1
• Updated pipeline template to nf-core/tools 2.7.2
• Added support for generating nf-core/atacseq compatible samplesheets
• Added --nf_core_rnaseq_strandedness parameter to specify value for strandedness entry added to samplesheet created when using --nf_core_pipeline rnaseq. The default is auto which can be used with nf-core/rnaseq v3.10 onwards to auto-detect strandedness during the pipeline execution.

[1.8] - 2022-11-08

Enhancements & fixes

• #111 - Change input mimetype to csv
• #114 - Final samplesheet is not created when --skip_fastq_download is provided
• #118 - Allow input pattern validation for csv/tsv/txt
• #119 - --force_sratools_download results in different fastq names compared to FTP download
• #121 - Add tower.yml to render samplesheet as Report in Tower
• Fetch SRR and DRR metadata from ENA API instead of NCBI API to bypass frequent breaking changes
• Updated pipeline template to nf-core/tools 2.6

[1.7] - 2022-07-01

⚠️ Major enhancements

Support for GEO ids has been dropped in this release due to breaking changes introduced in the NCBI API. For more detailed information please see this PR.

As a workaround, if you have a GEO accession you can directly download a text file containing the appropriate SRA ids to pass to the pipeline:

• Search for your GEO accession on GEO
• Click SRA Run Selector at the bottom of the GEO accession page
• Select the desired samples in the SRA Run Selector and then download the Accession List

This downloads a text file called SRR_Acc_List.txt that can be directly provided to the pipeline e.g. --input SRR_Acc_List.txt.

Enhancements & fixes

• #97 - Add support for generating nf-core/taxprofiler compatible samplesheets.
• #99 - SRA_IDS_TO_RUNINFO fails due to bad request
• Add enum field for --nf_core_pipeline to parameter schema so only accept supported pipelines are accepted

[1.6] - 2022-05-17

• #57 - fetchngs fails if FTP is blocked
• #89 - Improve detection and usage of the NCBI user settings by using the standardized sra-tools modules from nf-core.
• #93 - Adjust modules configuration to respect the publish_dir_mode parameter.
• [nf-core/rnaseq#764] - Test fails when using GCP due to missing tools in the basic biocontainer
• Updated pipeline template to nf-core/tools 2.4.1

Software dependencies

[1.5] - 2021-12-01

• Finish porting the pipeline to the updated Nextflow DSL2 syntax adopted on nf-core/modules
  • Bump minimum Nextflow version from 21.04.0 -> 21.10.3
  • Removed --publish_dir_mode as it is no longer required for the new syntax

[1.4] - 2021-11-09

Enhancements & fixes

• Convert pipeline to updated Nextflow DSL2 syntax for future adoption across nf-core
• Added a workflow to download FastQ files and to create samplesheets for ids from the Synapse platform hosted by Sage Bionetworks.
• SRA identifiers not available for direct download via the ENA FTP will now be downloaded via sra-tools.
• Added --force_sratools_download parameter to preferentially download all FastQ files via sra-tools instead of ENA FTP.
• Correctly handle errors from SRA identifiers that do not return metadata, for example, due to being private.
• Retry an error in prefetch via bash script in order to allow it to resume interrupted downloads.
• Name output FastQ files by {EXP_ACC}_{RUN_ACC}*fastq.gz instead of {EXP_ACC}_{T*}*fastq.gz for run id provenance
• [#46] - Bug in sra_ids_to_runinfo.py
• Added support for DDBJ ids. See examples below:

[1.3] - 2021-09-15

[1.0] - 2021-06-08

Pipeline summary

Via a single file of ids, provided one-per-line the pipeline performs the following steps:

1. Resolve database ids back to appropriate experiment-level ids and to be compatible with the ENA API
2. Fetch extensive id metadata including direct download links to FastQ files via ENA API
3. Download FastQ files in parallel via curl and perform md5sum check
4. Collate id metadata and paths to FastQ files in a single samplesheet

Supported database ids

Currently, the following types of example identifiers are supported:
