Define where the pipeline should find input data and save output data.
Path to comma-separated file containing information about the samples in the experiment.
stringYou will need to create a design file with information about the samples in your experiment before running the pipeline. Use this parameter to specify its location. It has to be a comma-separated file with 3 columns, and a header row. See usage docs.
The output directory where the results will be saved. You have to use absolute paths to storage on Cloud infrastructure.
stringEmail address for completion summary.
stringSet 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.
MultiQC report title. Printed as page header, used for filename if not otherwise specified.
stringIndicates if input files are BAMs: if not, FASTQ files are assumed and alignment is run
booleanDefines if pipeline is running a test or using full scale inputs
booleanTaxID of samples used as input
numberChoose if aligner should be bwa-mem or bwa-mem2
stringChoose if multiqc has data to add kraken to report
booleantrueReference genome related files and options required for the workflow.
Name of iGenomes reference.
stringIf using a reference genome configured in the pipeline using iGenomes, use this parameter to give the ID for the reference. This is then used to build the full paths for all required reference genome files e.g. --genome GRCh38.
See the nf-core website docs for more details.
Path to FASTA genome file.
stringThis parameter is *mandatory* if --genome is not specified. If you don't have a BWA index available this will be generated for you automatically. Combine with --save_reference to save BWA index for future runs.
Directory / URL base for iGenomes references.
strings3://ngi-igenomes/igenomesDo not load the iGenomes reference config.
booleanDo not load igenomes.config when running the pipeline. You may choose this option if you observe clashes between custom parameters and those supplied in igenomes.config.
A local path to kraken database folder or compressed database file, or a URL to a compressed database file, in tar.gz format
stringNoneA local path or a URL to a .tab krona taxonomy file; it can also receive a compressed .tab file in tar.gz format
stringNonePath to GFF/GTF annotation file.
stringThis parameter is *mandatory* if --genome is not specified.
Path bwa-mem indexes
stringNonePath bwa-mem2 indexes
stringNoneParameters used to describe centralised config profiles. These should not be edited.
Git commit id for Institutional configs.
stringmasterBase directory for Institutional configs.
stringhttps://raw.githubusercontent.com/nf-core/configs/masterIf 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.
stringInstitutional config description.
stringInstitutional config contact information.
stringInstitutional config URL link.
stringSet the top limit for requested resources for any single job.
Maximum number of CPUs that can be requested for any single job.
integer16Use 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.
string128.GBUse 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.
string240.hUse 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.
booleanDisplay version and exit.
booleanMethod used to save pipeline results to output directory.
stringThe 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.
stringAn email address to send a summary email to when the pipeline is completed - ONLY sent if the pipeline does not exit successfully.
Send plain-text email instead of HTML.
booleanFile size limit when attaching MultiQC reports to summary emails.
string25.MBDo not use coloured log outputs.
booleanIncoming hook URL for messaging service
stringIncoming hook URL for messaging service. Currently, MS Teams and Slack are supported.
Custom config file to supply to MultiQC.
stringCustom logo file to supply to MultiQC. File name must also be set in the MultiQC config file
stringCustom MultiQC yaml file containing HTML including a methods description.
stringDirectory to keep pipeline Nextflow logs and reports.
string${params.outdir}/pipeline_infoBoolean whether to validate parameters against the schema at runtime
booleantrueShow all params when using --help
