trimnami 0.1.4

Trim lots of metagenomics samples all at once.

---

Trim lots of metagenomics samples all at once.

Motivation

We keep writing pipelines that start with read trimming. Rather than copy-pasting code each time, this standalone Snaketool handles our trimming needs. The tool will collect sample names and files from a directory or TSV file, optionally remove host reads, and trim with your favourite read trimmer. Read trimming methods supported so far:

• Fastp
• Prinseq++
• BBtools for Round A/B viral metagenomics
• Filtlong + Rasusa for longreads

Install

Trimnami is still in development but can be easily installed with pip:

Easy install

pip install trimnami

Developer install

git clone https://github.com/beardymcjohnface/Trimnami.git
cd Trimnami/
pip install -e .

Test

Trimnami comes with inbuilt tests which you can run to check everything works fine.

# test fastp only (default method)
trimnami test

# test all SR methods
trimnami test fastp prinseq roundAB

# test all SR methods with host removal
trimnami testhost fastp prinseq roundAB

# test nanopore method (with host removal)
trimnami testnp

Usage

Trim reads with Fastp or Prinseq++

# Fastp (default)
trimnami run --reads reads/

# Prinseq++
trimnami run --reads reads/ prinseq

# Why not both!
trimnami run --reads reads/ fastp prinseq

Include host removal

trimnami run --reads reads/ --host host_genome.fasta

Longreads with host removal. Specify 'nanopore' for targets and use the appropriate minimap preset.

trimnami run \
    --reads reads/ \
    --host host_genome.fasta \
    --minimap map-ont \
    nanopore

Parsing samples with --reads

You can pass either a directory of reads or a TSV file to --reads.

• Directory: Trimnami will infer sample names and _R1/_R2 pairs from the filenames.
• TSV file: Trimnami expects 2 or 3 columns, with column 1 being the sample name and columns 2 and 3 the reads files.

Configure trimming parameters

You can customise the trimming parameters via the config file. Copy the default config file.

trimnami config

Then edit the config file trimnami.out/trimnami.config.yaml in your favourite text editor. Run trimnami like normal, or point to your custom config file if you've moved it.

trimnami run ... --configfile /my/awesome/config.yaml

Outputs

Trimmed reads will be saved in various subfolders in the output directory. e.g. if trimming with Fastp or Prinseq++, trimmed reads will be in trimnami.out/fastp/ or trimnami.out/prinseq/. Paired reads will yield three files: The R1 and R2 paired reads, and any singletons from trimming or host removal. Subsampling will produce extra files of subsampled trimmed reads. Multiqc-fastqc reports for any runs will be available in trimnami.out/reports/
