## Introduction
**nf-core/taxprofiler** is a bioinformatics best-practice analysis pipeline for taxonomic classification and profiling of shotgun and long-read metagenomic data. It allows for in-parallel taxonomic identification of reads or taxonomic abundance estimation with multiple classification and profiling tools against multiple databases, produces standardised output tables.
## Pipeline summary
![](docs/images/taxprofiler_tube.png)
1. Read QC ([`FastQC`](https://www.bioinformatics.babraham.ac.uk/projects/fastqc/) or [`falco`](https://github.com/smithlabcode/falco) as an alternative option)
2. Performs optional read pre-processing
- Adapter clipping and merging (short-read: [fastp](https://github.com/OpenGene/fastp), [AdapterRemoval2](https://github.com/MikkelSchubert/adapterremoval); long-read: [porechop](https://github.com/rrwick/Porechop))
- Low complexity and quality filtering (short-read: [bbduk](https://jgi.doe.gov/data-and-tools/software-tools/bbtools/), [PRINSEQ++](https://github.com/Adrian-Cantu/PRINSEQ-plus-plus); long-read: [Filtlong](https://github.com/rrwick/Filtlong))
- Host-read removal (short-read: [BowTie2](http://bowtie-bio.sourceforge.net/bowtie2/); long-read: [Minimap2](https://github.com/lh3/minimap2))
- Run merging
3. Supports statistics for host-read removal ([Samtools](http://www.htslib.org/))
4. Performs taxonomic classification and/or profiling using one or more of:
- [Kraken2](https://ccb.jhu.edu/software/kraken2/)
- [MetaPhlAn3](https://huttenhower.sph.harvard.edu/metaphlan/)
- [MALT](https://uni-tuebingen.de/fakultaeten/mathematisch-naturwissenschaftliche-fakultaet/fachbereiche/informatik/lehrstuehle/algorithms-in-bioinformatics/software/malt/)
- [DIAMOND](https://github.com/bbuchfink/diamond)
- [Centrifuge](https://ccb.jhu.edu/software/centrifuge/)
- [Kaiju](https://kaiju.binf.ku.dk/)
- [mOTUs](https://motu-tool.org/)
- [KrakenUniq](https://github.com/fbreitwieser/krakenuniq)
5. Perform optional post-processing with:
- [bracken](https://ccb.jhu.edu/software/bracken/)
6. Standardises output tables ([`Taxpasta`](https://taxpasta.readthedocs.io))
7. Present QC for raw reads ([`MultiQC`](http://multiqc.info/))
8. Plotting Kraken2, Centrifuge, Kaiju and MALT results ([`Krona`](https://hpc.nih.gov/apps/kronatools.html))
## Usage
> **Note**
> If you are new to Nextflow and nf-core, please refer to [this page](https://nf-co.re/docs/usage/installation) on how
> to set-up Nextflow. Make sure to [test your setup](https://nf-co.re/docs/usage/introduction#how-to-run-a-pipeline)
> with `-profile test` before running the workflow on actual data.
First, prepare a samplesheet with your input data that looks as follows:
`samplesheet.csv`:
```csv
sample,run_accession,instrument_platform,fastq_1,fastq_2,fasta
2612,run1,ILLUMINA,2612_run1_R1.fq.gz,,
2612,run2,ILLUMINA,2612_run2_R1.fq.gz,,
2612,run3,ILLUMINA,2612_run3_R1.fq.gz,2612_run3_R2.fq.gz,
```
Each row represents a fastq file (single-end), a pair of fastq files (paired end), or a fasta (with long reads).
Additionally, you will need a database sheet that looks as follows:
`databases.csv`:
```
tool,db_name,db_params,db_path
kraken2,db2,--quick,/<path>/<to>/kraken2/testdb-kraken2.tar.gz
metaphlan3,db1,,/<path>/<to>/metaphlan3/metaphlan_database/
```
That includes directories or `.tar.gz` archives containing databases for the tools you wish to run the pipeline against.
Now, you can run the pipeline using:
```bash
nextflow run nf-core/taxprofiler \
-profile <docker/singularity/.../institute> \
--input samplesheet.csv \
--databases databases.csv \
--outdir <OUTDIR> \
--run_kraken2 --run_metaphlan3
```
> **Warning:**
> Please provide pipeline parameters via the CLI (as above) or Nextflow `-params-file` option. Custom config files including those
> provided by the `-c` Nextflow option can be used to provide any configuration _**except for parameters**_;
> see [docs](https://nf-co.re/usage/configuration#custom-configuration-files).
For more details, please refer to the [usage documentation](https://nf-co.re/taxprofiler/usage) and the [parameter documentation](https://nf-co.re/taxprofiler/parameters).
## Pipeline output
