cellsnake

Project description

Docker Pulls Documentation Status
PyPI version
Anaconda-Server Badge
Anaconda-Server Badge

A command line tool for easy and scalable single cell RNA sequencing analysis

Installation

Please use Bioconda repo for installation and first installation of Mamba is recommended. Then install to a clean environment.

conda install mamba -c conda-forge

mamba create -n cellsnake -c bioconda -c conda-forge

Apple Silicon computers have to force Osx64, you can install like this.

conda install mamba -c conda-forge

CONDA_SUBDIR=osx-64 mamba create -n cellsnake -c bioconda -c conda-forge

Check if the installation works by calling the main script.

conda activate cellsnake
cellsnake --help

Then install and check if all the R packages are installed by typing.

cellsnake --install-packages

You should see this message if all the packages are available:

cellsnake --install-packages
[1] "All packages were installed...OK"

Cellsnake auto install most of the packages when necessary or during the environment creation but it is good to check if they are installable. Only do this once. You can then move the environment to an offline location as well if required. We recommend our Docker image and it is a better solution for installation problems.

Quick start examples

Run cellsnake in a clean directory and cellsnake will create the required directories while running. You may download publicly available fetal brain dataset to test your cellsnake installation. The link is here.

https://www.dropbox.com/sh/1qn2odtnci0vvtr/AADPxHH-GR4h-OuQG0TLQyxWa?dl=0

After downloading the dataset, just point the data folder which contains the two dataset folders, this will trigger a standard cellsnake workflow:

cellsnake standard data

After the pipeline finishes, go through the output files etc. You then can also integrate these two samples which makes sense.

cellsnake integrate data

Lets work on the integrated object from now on, we already processed the samples separately.

Lets do a minimal run, this will also generate a clustree plot as well which can be used to investigate the optimal resolution.

cellsnake integrated minimal analyses_integrated/seurat/integrated.rds

Let's say you want a resolution of 0.1 after checking clustree plot, then you can trigger a run with this resolution.

cellsnake integrated standard analyses_integrated/seurat/integrated.rds --resolution 0.1

It is also possible to use automatic resolution selection, however this might be very slow in large datasets.

cellsnake integrated standard analyses_integrated/seurat/integrated.rds --resolution auto

Output

The cellsnake main executable will generate two main folders: analyses and results. If an integrated dataset available, analyses_integrated and results_integrated will be created.

The main directory structure will look like this, resolution and percent_mt can be visible on directory names. These are the only parameters that will generate a separate folders.

results/integrated/percent_mt~auto/resolution~0.8/ #for regular samples
results_integrated/integrated/percent_mt~auto/resolution~0.8/ #for integrated samples
