NAME¶
fastaq_chunker - Splits sequences into equal sized chunks
DESCRIPTION¶
usage: fastaq_chunker [options] <infile> <out> <chunk size> <tolerance>
Splits a multi sequence file into separate files. Splits sequences into chunks of a fixed size. Aims for chunk_size chunks in each file, but allows a little extra, so chunk can be up to (chunk_size + tolerance), to prevent tiny chunks made from the ends of sequences
positional arguments:¶
- infile
- Name of input file to be split
- out
- Prefix of output file. If --onefile used, then name of single output file
- chunk_size
- Size of each chunk
- tolerance
- Tolerance allowed in chunk size
options:¶
- -h, --help
- show this help message and exit
- --onefile
- Output all the sequences in one file
- --skip_all_Ns
- Do not output any sequence that consists of all Ns
