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
- picopore-test
- compresses to temporary files and checks that all datasets and attributes
are equal (lossless modes only)
- picopore-rename
- renames groups and datasets within FAST5 files
- input
- list of directories or fast5 files to shrink
- -h, --help
- show this help message and exit
- --mode
{lossless,deep-lossless,raw}
- choose compression mode
- --revert
- reverts files to original size (lossless modes only)
- --fastq,
--no-fastq
- retain FASTQ data (raw mode only) (Default: --fastq)
- --summary,
--no-summary
- retain summary data (raw mode only) (Default: --nosummary)
- --manual
STR
- manually remove only groups whose paths contain STR (raw mode only,
regular expressions permitted, overrides defaults)
- -v, --version
- show version number and exit
- -y
- skip confirm step
- -t INT, --threads
INT
- number of threads (Default: 1)
- --prefix
STR
- add prefix to output files to prevent overwrite
- --skip-root,
--no-skip-root
- ignore files in root input directories for albacore realtime compression
(Default: --no-skip-root)
- --print-every
INT
- print a dot every approximately INT files, or -1 to silence
(Default: 100)
