PARSELOG.PY(1)

🎀 NAME 🎀

Okay bestie, welcome to the PARSELOG.PY(1) page 💖 The star of the show is ParseLog.py, and it parses records in the console log of pRESTO modules ✨

✨ DESCRIPTION ✨

So here's the vibe check: this is how you call it 💅

usage: ParseLog.py [--version] [-h] [-o OUT_FILES [OUT_FILES ...]]

              [--outdir OUT_DIR] [--outname OUT_NAME] [--delim DELIMITER
              DELIMITER DELIMITER] -l RECORD_FILES [RECORD_FILES ...] -f FIELDS
              [FIELDS ...]

It's giving "dig through the console log records of pRESTO modules and grab exactly what you want" 🦋

🆘 help 🆘

• --version — shows you the program's version number, then it dips 👋
• -h, --help — shows the help message and then exits 🫶

💜 standard arguments 💜

• -o OUT_FILES [OUT_FILES ...] — pick your own explicit output file name(s). Heads up, this one is NOT compatible with --failed, --outdir, or --outname 💀 If you don't set it, the output filename gets built from the input filename(s). (default: None)

Careful with -o: it cannot be combined with --failed, --outdir, or --outname.

• --outdir OUT_DIR — moves the output to the directory you choose 📂 If you skip this one, the input file directory is used instead. (default: None)
• --outname OUT_NAME — swaps the prefix of the successfully processed output file for whatever string you give it 🍓 You can't use this with multiple input files. (default: None)
• --delim DELIMITER DELIMITER DELIMITER — a list of three delimiters, in this order: the ones that separate annotation blocks, the ones that separate field names from values, and the ones that separate values within a field 🌈 (default: ('|', '=', ','))

🎯 parsing arguments 🎯

• -l RECORD_FILES [RECORD_FILES ...] — the log files you want parsed 📜 (default: None)
• -f FIELDS [FIELDS ...] — the fields you want collected 🧚 You can also grab the sequence identifier with the hidden field name "ID" 🙈 (default: None)

📦 output files 📦

• table — a tab delimited table of the annotations you selected 🌸

🌟 output annotation fields 🌟

• <user defined> — the annotation fields you specify with the -f argument 👑

💌 AUTHOR 💌

Andreas Tille wrote this manpage for the Debian distribution, and it's giving open-to-everyone energy: it can be used for any other usage of the program too 🫶

Bye bestie 💖 That was ParseLog.py 0.6.0 from May 2020, sitting on the PARSELOG.PY(1) page forever 🎀✨
