Usage

This program allows you to run Snakemake workflows for common anvi’o processes. It is described fully in this tutorial.

Essentially, an anvi’o workflow will run several anvi’o programs for you in quick succession (based on a standard set of intiial steps that will allow you to quickly get to a point where you can ask novel questions).

As of now, the available workflows are the contigs-workflow, the metagenomics-workflow, the pangenomics-workflow, the phylogenomics-workflow, and the trnaseq-workflow.

Before running the workflow

Each workflow requires a workflow-config: the file that details all of the parameters for the workflow. To get the workflow-config with the default parameters, just run

anvi-run-workflow -w WORKFLOW-NAME \ --get-default-config CONFIG.json

Before running a workflow, it is also a good idea to check the required dependencies by running

anvi-run-workflow -w WORKFLOW-NAME \ --list-dependencies

The main run

The main run of the workflow should look like this:

anvi-run-workflow -w WORKFLOW-NAME \ -c CONFIG.json --save-workflow-graph

The flag --save-workflow-graph creates a visual representation of the anvio programs that the workflow you’re running used.

You can also use the -A flag at the end of the parameter list to change other Snakemake parameters.
