👑 ART_PROFILER_ILLUMINA — the art_profiler_illumina(1) page, but make it cute

okay bestie, welcome to section 1 (User Commands) of the manual, and yes we are doing this together 💖

---

✨ NAME ✨

art_profiler_illumina — it's the program for generating empirical 454 read profiles. (yes, 454, we said what we said 🫶)

---

🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

So basically: this tool creates an illumina read quality profile out of a whole bunch of fastq files, or gzipped fastq files. Multiple of them. Like, all of them. She eats 💅

---

🎀 USAGE 🎀

art_profiler_illumina out_profile_name input_fastq_dir
[fastq_filename_extension (default: fq)]

That's the whole vibe: give her a profile name, give her a directory, and optionally tell her what extension to look for (and if you don't, she's just gonna assume fq).

---

💖 OPTIONS 💖

• out_profile_name — the name of the read quality profile. this is what your profile is gonna be called, so name it something iconic ✨
• input_fastq_dir — the directory where your input fastq files (or zipped fastq files) are hanging out 🗂️
  • fastq_filename_extension — the filename extension for your fastq or gzipped fastq files. default is fq 🍓

---

🌈 EXAMPLES 🌈

1. create hiseq2k profiles from all *.fq.gz in the directory fastq_dat_dir

art_profiler_illumina hiseq2k fastq_dat_dir fq.gz

2. create miseq2500 profiles from all *.fq in the directory fastq_dat_dir

art_profiler_illumina miseq250 fastq_dat_dir fq

3. create hiseq1k profiles from all *.fq in the directory fastq_dat_dir

art_profiler_illumina hiseq1k fastq_dat_dir

NOTES: for paired-end fastq files, like *.fq or *.fq.gz, the filenames of the 1st reads must be *_1.fq/*_1.fq.gz, or *.1.fq/*.1.fq.gz, and those of the 2nd reads must be *_2.fq/*_2.fq.gz, or *.2.fq or *.2.fq.gz. no cap, she will not find your reads if you name them wrong 😭
