Path to directory for a bed file containing regions to be exluded from the analysis.

type: string
pattern: ^\S+\.bed$

If the regions you would like to exclude are in bed format, use this option. If you have an interval_list file, use exclude_interval_list parameter instead.

Path to directory for exclude_interval_list file.

type: string
pattern: ^\S+\._interval_list$

If the regions you would like to exclude are in interval_list format, use this option. If you have a bed file, use exclude parameter instead.

type: string

Used by GATK's AnnotateIntervals.

Length (in bp) of the padding regions on each side of the intervals.

Path to directory for target bed file.

type: string
pattern: ^\S+\.bed$

If the regions you would like to analyse are in bed format, use this option. If you have an interval_list file, use target_interval_list parameter instead.

Path to directory for target interval_list file.

type: string
pattern: ^\S+\._interval_list$

If the regions you would like to analyse are in interval_list format, use this option. If you have a bed file, use target_bed parameter instead.

Options used by the gens subworkflow

Maximum chunk size when writing the HDF5 file

type: number
default: 167772150

Minimum interval median percentile for gatk CreateReadCountPanelOfNormals

type: number
default: 5

Genomic intervals with a median (across samples) of fractional coverage (optionally corrected for GC bias) less than or equal to this percentile are filtered out. (This is the first filter applied.)

Name for panel of normals.

default: gens

Output file format for count data

type: string

Options used by the cnvkit subworkflow

type: string

Options used by the mutect2 subworkflow

type: string

Path to target bed file

type: string
pattern: ^\S+\.bed$

Define where the pipeline should find input data and save output data.

Path to comma-separated file containing information about the samples in the experiment.

required
type: undefined

A design file with information about the samples in your experiment. Use this parameter to specify the location of the input files. It has to be a comma-separated file with a header row. See usage docs.

If no input file is specified, sarek will attempt to locate one in the {outdir} directory.

The output directory where the results will be saved. You have to use absolute paths to storage on Cloud infrastructure.

required
type: string

Email address for completion summary.

type: string
pattern: ^([a-zA-Z0-9_\-\.]+)@([a-zA-Z0-9_\-\.]+)\.([a-zA-Z]{2,5})$

Set this parameter to your e-mail address to get a summary e-mail with details of the run sent to you when the workflow exits. If set in your user config file (~/.nextflow/config) then you don't need to specify this on the command line for every run.

MultiQC report title. Printed as page header, used for filename if not otherwise specified.

type: string

Most common options used for the pipeline

Tools to use for building Panel of Normals or models.

required
type: string

Multiple tools separated with commas.

Tools available: CNVKIT,germlinecnvcaller,gens,mutect2

This parameter must be a combination of the following values: cnvkit, germlinecnvcaller, gens, mutect2

Reference genome related files and options required for the workflow.

Name of iGenomes reference.

type: string

If using a reference genome configured in the pipeline using iGenomes, use this parameter to give the ID for the reference. This is then used to build the full paths for all required reference genome files e.g. --genome GRCh38.

See the nf-core website docs for more details.

Path to FASTA genome file.

type: string
pattern: ^\S+\.fn?a(sta)?(\.gz)?$

This parameter is mandatory if --genome is not specified. If you don't have a BWA index available this will be generated for you automatically. Combine with --save_reference to save BWA index for future runs.

Do not load the iGenomes reference config.

hidden
type: boolean

Do not load igenomes.config when running the pipeline. You may choose this option if you observe clashes between custom parameters and those supplied in igenomes.config.
