Install Lorikeet

Dependencies

For read mapping:

• Minimap2 by default
• BWA
• SAMtools

For open reading frame calling:

• Prodigal

Additionally, you’ll need Python >= 3.6 with the following packages:

• Nimfa
• Numpy
• SciPy
• Threadpoolctl

Easy install

A static binary of the latest release of lorikeet can be downloaded directly from GitHub

tar -xvzf lorikeet-x86_64-unknown-linux-musl.tar.gz

You’ll then need to place both the Lorikeet binary and the nmf.py script into your current bin/ folder

We are working on integrating the nmf.py script into Rust, however current methods using Opy3 require unstable versions of Rust.

Build from scratch

Building from scratch requires Rust to be installed on your machine. Installation instructions for rust can be found here.

Once installed, clone the latest Lorikeet version from GitHub.

git clone https://github.com/rhysnewell/Lorikeet.git && cd Lorikeet/
