nf-core/configs: Sage Bionetworks Global Configuration

To use this custom configuration, run the pipeline with -profile sage. This will download and load the sage.config, which contains a number of optimizations relevant to Sage employees running workflows on AWS (e.g. using Nextflow Tower). This profile will also load any applicable pipeline-specific configuration.

This global configuration includes the following tweaks:

• Update the default value for igenomes_base to s3://sage-igenomes
• Increase the default time limits because we run pipelines on AWS
• Enable retries by default when exit codes relate to insufficient memory
• Allow pending jobs to finish if the number of retries are exhausted
• Slow the increase in the number of allocated CPU cores on retries
• Define the check_max() function, which is missing in Sarek v2

Additional information about iGenomes

The following iGenomes prefixes have been copied from s3://ngi-igenomes/ (eu-west-1) to s3://sage-igenomes (us-east-1). See this script for more information. The sage-igenomes S3 bucket has been configured to openly available, but files cannot be downloaded out of us-east-1 to avoid egress charges. You can check the conf/igenomes.config file in each nf-core pipeline to figure out the mapping between genome IDs (i.e. for --genome) and iGenomes prefixes (example).
