string
^\S+\.tsv$
Use this to specify a sample sheet table including your input raw or mzml files as well as their meta information such as SampleID and Condition. For example:
| ID | Sample | Condition | ReplicateFileName |
| -----|:------------:| ----------:|------------------------------------------:|
| 1 | MM15_Melanom | A | data/MM15_Melanom_W_1_A_standard.raw |
| 2 | MM15_Melanom | B | data/MM15_Melanom_W_1_B_standard.raw |
| 3 | MM17_Melanom | B | data/MM17_Melanom_W_1_B_standard.raw |
--input 'path/samples.tsv'

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.
MultiQC report title. Printed as page header, used for filename if not otherwise specified.
string
Input FASTA protein database
string
.fasta$
If you have no genome reference available, the pipeline can build one using a FASTA file. This requires additional time and resources, so it's better to use a pre-build index if possible.
Set depending on whether variants should be translated to proteins and included into your fasta for database search.
boolean
Add this parameter when you want to skip the generation of the decoy database, the consequence is that it prevents the generation of variants and FDR refinement
boolean
If you want to use your own decoys, you can specify a dataset that includes decoy sequences. However, each database entry should keep the prefix 'DECOY_'.
One should consider though that this option will then prevent appending variants to the database and if not using reversed decoys the subset refinement FDR option will not work.

).
