Module completeness as stand-alone package

Open Alxdu opened this issue 8 months ago • 4 comments

First of all, thank you for putting together this really great package. I find the module completeness assessment really unique, with only a few other lesser options out there (e.g., KeggDecoder). I also liked the way you break down the module definition in .kk files for improved completeness assessment. Therefore, I look forward to see continued support and development for this function.

In my case, I use ko annotations made within a different pipeline to assess module completeness with KEMET. In theory I would only need the annotation .txt file, but I have to also provide the genome assembly .fasta file to run the script (which is not really needed when running with --skip_hmm and --skip_gsmm arguments).

If I could make a feature request/suggestion, it would be to separate the module completeness functionality where it accepts just ko annotation files (either a path to a file or a path to a folder for batch operation).

It would also be great to have a stand-alone tool to create module definition .kk files from the official kegg module .txt files, for situations where KEMET is not continuously supported and current .kk files become obsolete.

Thank you for giving these some consideration.
