A command line client for uploading sequencing metrics from Oxford Nanopore Technologies MinKNOW to a LooseLab minoTour server instance.

MinFQ only supports minknow core 4.X.X as it uses ONT’s minknow-api, which is only compatible with said version of MinKNOW.

However, base called data can be uploaded from any version of MinKNOW/Guppy.

To install -

pip install minFQ
