🌸 NAME 🌸

picopore-realtime — monitors a directory for new reads and compresses them in real time

like, it literally sits there watching a folder like a nosy little sibling and squishes new reads the second they show up. main character behaviour fr fr 👑

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

picopore-realtime [-h] --mode {lossless,deep-lossless,raw} [--revert]
[--fastq] [--summary] [--manual STR] [-v] [-y] [-t INT] [--prefix STR]
[--skip-root] [--print-every INT] [input [input ...]]

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

A tool for reducing the size of an Oxford Nanopore Technologies dataset without losing any data 💅

picopore-realtime monitors a directory for new reads and compresses them in real time

so the whole vibe is: you point it at stuff, it watches, it shrinks. no data lost, just ✨ optimized ✨. it's giving glow-up but for your disk space.

🎀 OPTIONS 🎀

🌈 positional arguments:

  • input — list of directories or fast5 files to shrink. give it as many as you want, it's flexible like that 💖

💜 optional arguments:

  • -h, --help — show this help message and exit. the classic. the icon. the one we all press first 🙈
  • --mode {lossless,deep-lossless,raw} — choose compression mode. pick your fighter, bestie, this one's required ⚔️
  • --revert — reverts files to original size (lossless modes only). undo button, but only for the lossless girlies 😭
  • --fastq, --no-fastq — retain FASTQ data (raw mode only) (Default: --fastq). it's on by default, she's confident like that 💅
  • --summary, --no-summary — retain summary data (raw mode only) (Default: --nosummary). note that she's off by default, so don't come for me when your summaries dip 🫶
  • --manual STR — manually remove only groups whose paths contain STR (raw mode only, regular expressions permitted, overrides defaults). you're the boss now, regex and all 🔥
  • -v, --version — show version number and exit. quick lil peek, then she's out ✌️
  • -y — skip confirm step. no "are you sure??" energy, we're just going 🏃‍♀️💨
  • -t INT, --threads INT — number of threads (Default: 1). one thread by default, but you can absolutely feed her more 🍓
  • --prefix STR — add prefix to output files to prevent overwrite. safety first, babes, we do not overwrite in this house 💖
  • --skip-root, --no-skip-root — ignore files in root input directories for albacore realtime compression (Default: --no-skip-root). default is --no-skip-root, so by default she does not skip them 👀
  • --print-every INT — print a dot every approximately INT files, or -1 to silence (Default: 100). little dots of encouragement, every ~100 files. or -1 if you want her to be quiet 🤫
