QCAT-EVAL(1)
π QCAT-EVAL π
ok so bestie, welcome to qcat-eval β that's the section 1 manual page for it, like all the other "User Commands" girlies. it's the command line interface to the barcode detection library, and yes, she is serving β¨utilityβ¨.
β¨ NAME β¨
qcat-eval β command line interface to barcode detection library π¦
πΈ DESCRIPTION πΈ
here's the vibe. the usage goes a little something like this:
usage: qcat-eval [-h] [-t TSV] [-n NAME] [-d DATASET] [-s] [-g GUPPY]
[-i INCORRECT] [FASTQ]
Command line interface to barcode detection library. that's the whole elevator pitch, no cap. π«Ά
π positional arguments: π
FASTQβ that's it, that's the positional. the original page gives her no description, so i'm not gonna make one up, i'm just gonna point at her and say "she's there" π.
π options: π
-h,--helpβ show this help message and exit. the classic, the icon, the main character of every CLI ever π. when in doubt, ask for help, periodt.-t TSV,--tsv TSVβ takes aTSVvalue. the original manpage doesn't spell out what she does, so i'm not gonna invent lore π«£ β but she's here, she takes aTSV, and she's iconic.-n NAME,--name NAMEβ takes aNAMEvalue. again, no description in the source, so i'm keeping it 100 and just telling you she exists β¨.-d DATASET,--dataset DATASETβ takes aDATASETvalue. she's giving "this is probably important" energy but the page stays mysterious, so i stay mysterious too π.-s,--summaryβ a flag, no argument. flip her on, no value needed, she's just vibing πΈ.-g GUPPY,--guppy_summary GUPPYβ takes aGUPPYvalue. yes, the option name really is--guppy_summarywith that underscore, so type her exactly like that, don't be out here renaming things π.-i INCORRECT,--get-incorrect INCORRECTβ takes anINCORRECTvalue. and note that the long form is spelled with a dash inget-incorrectwhile the short option is-iβ copy it character for character, bestie, because guessing is not the move π.
okay genuine heads up: the original manual page lists these options with no descriptions at all, so i'm not adding any. i refuse to make up behaviour for you β that's not cute, that's just wrong π. run the thing, check --help, read the source, stay safe, slay.
β SEE ALSO β
the original page doesn't list any SEE ALSO entries, so there's nothing to link up here. sad? a little. honest? completely π.
and that's the whole page, bestie!! π§ this was qcat-eval, version 1.1.0, from November 2022 β she's a little vintage, she's a little mysterious, and she's still out here doing barcode detection CLI things. go forth, pass your FASTQ, and remember: read the help output, don't guess the flags. mwah ππΈπ¦
