tadrep detect error

[elozanoe]

Hi! I've been looking at this tool and I think it could be useful for what I want to do. In the file plasmids.fna I have a set of contigs that may be plasmids, and I wanted to use tadrep detect to align the contigs against the PLSDB or RefSeq databases. I have used this command:

tadrep -v -o ./prueba2 detect --genome ./prueba/plasmids.fna --min-contig-coverage 75 --min-contig-identity 75 --min-plasmid-coverage 50 --min-plasmid-identity 75

However, I obtain this message:

ERROR: No data available in /mnt/disk2/data/tfm/prueba2/db.json

Here I paste the tadrep.log file content:

I think there is a mistake in the path of the database. When I try to specify it using --db /mnt/disk2/databases/tadrep_db/plsdb, I obtain "error: unrecognized arguments: --db /mnt/disk2/databases/tadrep_db/plsdb". I've also tried to copy the PLSDB database to the path that is marked in bold, but it still gives an error:

cp /path/to/tadrep_db/plsdb/plsdb.json ./prueba2/db.json

tadrep -v -o ./prueba2 detect --genome ./prueba/plasmids.fna --min-contig-coverage 75 --min-contig-identity 75 --min-plasmid-coverage 50 --min-plasmid-identity 75

Obtaining: Detection and reconstruction started ... ERROR: No cluster in database /mnt/disk2/data/tfm/prueba2/db.json

Here I paste the new tadrep.log file content:

What am I doing wrong? Do I have to do any previous steps with the plasmids.fna file? Thanks in advance!
