NAME
NanoFilt - filtering and trimming of long read sequencing data
DESCRIPTION
usage: NanoFilt [-h] [-v] [--logfile LOGFILE] [-l LENGTH]
-
[--maxlength MAXLENGTH] [-q QUALITY] [--minGC MINGC] [--maxGC MAXGC] [--headcrop HEADCROP] [--tailcrop TAILCROP] [-s SUMMARY] [--readtype {1D,2D,1D2}] [input]
Perform quality and/or length and/or GC filtering of (long read) fastq data. Reads on stdin.
General options:
- -h, --help
-
show the help and exit
- -v, --version
-
Print version and exit.
- --logfile LOGFILE
-
Specify the path and filename for the log file.
- input
-
input, uncompressed fastq file
Options for filtering reads on.:
- -l LENGTH, --length LENGTH
-
Filter on a minimum read length
- --maxlength MAXLENGTH
-
Filter on a maximum read length
- -q QUALITY, --quality QUALITY
-
Filter on a minimum average read quality score
- --minGC MINGC
-
Sequences must have GC content >= to this. Float between 0.0 and 1.0. Ignored if using summary file.
- --maxGC MAXGC
-
Sequences must have GC content <= to this. Float between 0.0 and 1.0. Ignored if using summary file.
Options for trimming reads.:
- --headcrop HEADCROP
-
Trim n nucleotides from start of read
- --tailcrop TAILCROP
-
Trim n nucleotides from end of read
Input options.:
- -s SUMMARY, --summary SUMMARY
-
Use albacore or guppy summary file for quality scores
- --readtype {1D,2D,1D2}
-
Which read type to extract information about from summary. Options are 1D, 2D or 1D2
