[Feature request] option to indicate subsection of Genbank file

Open dutchscientist opened this issue 3 years ago • 3 comments

Often we have a (prokka-generated) Genbank file, but only want to use a small subsection of it in Clinker. I don't know how easy it would be, but could an option be introduced to say xxxxx.gbk(133310-136309) so that only that region and the annotation are used?

This solves it at the level of generating the input file (thanks Roy!), but is it a functionality useful for Clinker to have included?

Hi @dutchscientist, sorry for taking so long to get back to this, pretty time poor at the moment. I remember from Twitter the --ranges argument wasn't working for you, do you still have the files/output from when you tried it before?

No worries, very little time myself. There are no outputs as the program just "hangs", and after 10 minutes or so I gave up. It works well with the previous script to make the inputs files with Roy Chadhuri's script.
