Ray vs Ray Meta

I have successfully compiled and run Ray, but have no clue how to run Ray Meta? What is the difference in the command line to run Ray Meta vs. Ray vanilla? I have a metagenomic sample with 3 closely related species.

I have the same question

[billgreenwald]

The home page says that Ray meta "works by default", so I am assuming for now that just calling "Ray" will launch Ray meta

[feargalr]

Anyone figure this out? I've the same question and can't seem to find an answer anywhere. It says both Ray de novo genome assembly and Ray meta de novo genome assembly "works by default" which is very confusing.

Ray Meta is for when you use the profiling arguments when you launch Ray. So it is indeed the same executable but you need to provide -search to look up for sequences and -with-taxonomy if you want to have taxon associated with the sequences found in the search directory.

You can look the documentation files : https://github.com/sebhtml/ray/tree/master/Documentation/
