  • FASTQC setting for multiple casava fastq files?

    I am using fastqc in my workflow, but am wondering how to get the program to recognize multiple cassava fastq files, as described in the manual.
    My command for a single fastq is like:
    /fastqc –outdir=/unaligned/project_x/ --casava –noextract –quiet /unaligned/project_x/sample_13176/13176_ATCACG_L003_R1_001.fastq

    But when I use only the sample directory for the input parameter, the program does not recognize the sample directory. So, it only runs with a single fastq specified.

    Can anyone give me an example of how to run on a directory with multiple fastq files (cassava fastq)?

    I wrote to Simon Andrews but have not heard back in several days, and need to get on with it.

    Thanks.

    Have you tried specifying --casava, but also listing all the files that you want analysed together, rather than just giving the name of the directory?

      Simon Andrews just wrote back to clarify...hoorah!
      Simple answer, but the manual is not clear on this point.
      fastqc --casava *.fastq.gz

      Running it now...
