db

meta:map

kraken2-database:directory

Directory contains the database that can be used to perform taxonomic classification

IMPORTANT: this output directory will be hardcoded as ‘kraken2-database/’ inside the module to prevent issues of containers following symlinks in symlinks.

To give a user the option to provide custom name for the database directory within a pipeline, you should customise this name using during pipeline output publication via the pipeline’s publishDir or workflow output customisation options.
