MEGAHIT_CORE(1)

💖 MEGAHIT_CORE — the megahit_core(1) page, but make it cute 💖

okay bestie, welcome to the User Commands section, we're doing megahit_core(1) today and honestly? it's giving legend behavior.

✨ NAME ✨

megahit_core — the ultra-fast and memory-efficient meta-genome assembler 🧬🔥

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

megahit_core <sub_program> [sub options]

like. that's it. that's the whole shape of it. you pick a sub_program, you hand it some sub options, it goes to work. main character energy fr fr 💅

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

so megahit_core isn't one program, it's a whole squad of sub-programs, and each one does one job and does it well. here's the roster, no cap:

the sub-programs 👑

• assemble — assemble from SdBG
• local — local asssembly (yes that's how it's spelled in the original, and honestly? iconic of it to commit to the bit)
• iterate — extract iterative edges
• buildlib — build read library
• count — kmer counting
• read2sdbg — build sdbg from reads
• seq2sdbg — build sdbg from megahit contigs + edges
• contig2fastg — convert MEGAHIT's k*.contigs.fa to fastg format
• readstat — calculate read stats (# of reads, bases, longest, shortest, average)
• filterbylen — filter contigs by length
• checkcpu — check whether the run-time CPU supports POPCNT and BMI2
• checkpopcnt — check whether the run-time CPU supports POPCNT
• checkbmi2 — check whether the run-time CPU supports BMI2
• dumpversion — dump version
• kmax — the largest k value supported

like the way they made a whole sub-program just to tell you the largest k value? that's confidence. that's a queen knowing exactly who she is. 👑

lowkey pro tip from the manpage itself: it's <sub_program> plus [sub options] — so don't just yell a sub-program name into the void and expect magic, bestie. give it its little options too. 🫶

🎀 AUTHOR 🎀

This manpage was written by Shayan Doust for the Debian distribution and can be used for any other usage of the program. 💜 absolute slay, thank you for your service.

and that's the whole page, no crumbs left behind. 🍓

✧･ﾟ megahit_core 1.2.8 — October 2019 ･ﾟ✧ — yeah that's the version and the date, she's a lil vintage but she's still fast and still memory-efficient. go assemble something gorgeous, bestie. 💖✨🧬
