Description

Perform quality control of Fasta files.

Dependencies

  1. This pipeline is based on nextflow. As we have several nextflow pipelines, we have centralized the common information in the IARC-nf repository. Please read it carefully as it contains essential information for the installation, basic usage and configuration of nextflow and our pipelines.
  2. FastQC: see official installation here. You can avoid installing all the external software by only installing Docker (not available yet). See the IARC-nf repository for more information.)
  3. Multiqc: see official installation here. You can avoid installing all the external software by only installing Docker (not available yet). See the IARC-nf repository for more information.)
