2
3 `bettercallsal_db` is an end-to-end automated workflow to generate and consolidate the required DB flat files based on [NCBI Pathogens Database for Salmonella](https://ftp.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pathogen/Results/Salmonella/). It first downloads the metadata based on the provided release identifier (Ex: `latest_snps` or `PDG000000002.3082`) and then creates a `mash sketch` based on the filtering strategy. It generates two types of sketches, one that prioritizes genome collection based on SNP clustering (`per_snp_cluster`) and the other just collects up to N number of genome accessions for each `computed_serotype` column from the metadata file (`per_computed_serotype`).

10 ## Workflow Usage
11
12 ```bash
13 cpipes --pipeline bettercallsal_db [options]
14 ```
15
16 \
17  
18
19 Example: Run the `bettercallsal_db` pipeline and store output at `/data/Kranti_Konganti/bettercallsal_db/PDG000000002.3082`.
20
21 ```bash
22 cpipes
23 --pipeline bettercallsal_db \
24 --pdg_release PDG000000002.3082 \
25 --output /data/Kranti_Konganti/bettercallsal_db/PDG000000002.3082
26 ```
27
28 \
29  
30
31 Now you can run the `bettercallsal` workflow with the created database by mentioning the root path to the database with `--bcs_root_dbdir` option.
32
33 ```bash
34 cpipes
35 --pipeline bettercallsal \
36 --input /path/to/illumina/fastq/dir \
37 --output /path/to/output \
38 --bcs_root_dbdir /data/Kranti_Konganti/bettercallsal_db/PDG000000002.3082
39 ```

44 ## Note
45
46 Please note that the last step of the `bettercallsal_db` workflow named `SCAFFOLD_GENOMES` will spawn multiple processes and is not cached by **Nextflow**. This is an intentional setup for this specific stage of the workflow to speed up database creation and as such it is recommended that you run this workflow in a grid computing or similar cloud computing setting.

223 required to pass noise filter for reads.

246 ). Implies --mashsketch_n --mashsketch_k 9
247 . Default: false
248
249 --mashsketch_z : <text> Alphabet to base hashes on (case
250 ignored by default; see --mashsketch_Z). K-
251 mers with other characters will be ignored
252 . Implies --mashsketch_n. Default: false
253
254 --mashsketch_Z : Preserve case in k-mers and alphabet (case
255 is ignored by default). Sequence letters
256 whose case is not in the current alphabet
257 will be skipped when sketching. Default:
