Nice work j.cappellazzi!
I hadn't heard of that hyphen issue - bit of a trap!
The "./" in my command refers to a 'relative' path. I.e., it will look for a folder that is in your current directory. This is in contrast to absolute paths, i.e., "/home/qiime/Desktop/Hilo_New/" that will work no matter where you run them from.
I think the problem with my original command is that the folder name and the name in the command were slightly different. You created a folder called "FastX-filterFastq", but the command is trying to create output here "./fastX-filterFastq/". Note the lower-case 'f' in fastX.
Anyway, glad you got it working!
Cheers,
Matt.

It wasn't recognizing the -i because it was a long "-" not a short one. Must have been from copying from word into the command line. WOW!

It worked!
Well, now I understand my coding limitations. I didn't know the "./" meant I needed to provide the path to the output folder. I messed around with the code and did...
qiime@qiime-190-virtual-box:~/Desktop/Hilo_New/Hilo_join_paired_ends_fastq-join_labeled$ for i in *.fastq; do fastq_quality_filter -Q33 -q 19 -p 89 -i $i -o /home/qiime/Desktop/Hilo_New/Hilo_join_paired_ends_fastq-join_labeled/FastX-filterFastq/$(basename $i .fastq)_fqf.fastq; done
It worked like a charm. I frequently run into problems like this, when it's just my lack of coding knowledge that makes even the simplest tasks frustrating. Thank you so much for creating that code. I truly appreciate it.

I also tried the code you suggested after getting into the proper directory at the command line and fixing the "-i" issue...
qiime@qiime-190-virtual-box:~/Desktop/Hilo_New/Hilo_join_paired_ends_fastq-join_labeled$ for i in *.fastq; do fastq_quality_filter -Q33 -q 19 -p 89 -i $i -o ./fastX-filterFastq/$(basename $i .fastq)_fqf.fastq; done
I made a folder in the following directory titled "FastX-filterFastq"
qiime@qiime-190-virtual-box:~/Desktop/Hilo_New/Hilo_join_paired_ends_fastq-join_labeled
It seemed to begin working but for each of my 43 .fastq files in that folder it gave me the following error message...
fastq_quality_filter: Failed to create output file (./fastX-filterFastq/MockComm_fastqjoin.join_fqf.fastq): No such file or directory
Thanks for any further help on this.

Well, that was frustrating and silly. It wasn't recognizing the -i because it was a long "-" not a short one. Must have been from copying from word into the command line. WOW!
Now it works just fine with individual files again (must have mucked that up as well while copying last night), however, there is still a problem with @Genomax loop script. I entered...
for i in `ls -1 /home/qiime/Desktop/Hilo_New/Hilo_join_paired_ends_fastq-join_labeled/*.fastq | sed 's/.fastq//'`; do fastq_quality_filter -Q33 -q 19 -p 89 -i /home/qiime/Desktop/Hilo_New/Hilo_join_paired_ends_fastq-join_labeled/$i.fastq -o /home/qiime/Desktop/Hilo_New/fastX-filterFastq/$i\_fqf.fastq; done
There is an output folder created and empty, patiently awaiting 43 new files, however, this is the response I receive...
fastq_quality_filter: failed to open input file '/home/qiime/Desktop/Hilo_New/Hilo_join_paired_ends_fastq-join_labeled//home/qiime/Desktop/Hilo_New/Hilo_join_paired_ends-join_labeled/MockComm_fastqjoin.join.fastq.fastq': No such file or directory
It does this for every single file in the directory. The issue I can see is that "MockComm_fastqjoin.join.fastq.fastq" is not a file, as the input file will have only one ".fastq" in the name. I tried playing around with the script but honestly don't understand all the details and other errors kept popping up.
Any further help on this would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

It looks like fastx_toolkit does not want to behave like a normal unix program.
@ j.cappellazzi: You can use @neavemj's suggestion above if you want to stick with fastx_toolkit. Otherwise, I suggest that you use bbduk.sh from BBMap suite (a more current program) for this.
Code:for i in `ls -1 *.fq | sed 's/.fq//'`; do bbduk.sh qin=33 qtrim=r trimq=19 in=$i.fq out=$i\_fqf.fq; done

Huh, not sure. It seems like it's ignoring the -i flag and waiting for something from the STDIN. You could try giving it an opened file instead of the input flag, like so:
Code:for i in *.fastq; do cat $i | fastq_quality_filter –Q33 -q 19 -p 89 -o ./fastX-filterFastq/$(basename $i .fastq)_fqf.fastq; done
Something like that might work. I haven't tested it though.
Cheers,
Matt.Last edited by GenoMax; 08-02-2017, 04:14 AM.

If you can see something wrong, here is the .fastq file. I couldn't figure out how to post it, so just delete .pdf from the end (I think that will work).Attached Files

I just loaded the fastQValidator and pulled a subsample out of my original folder. I checked 43 .fastq files with fastQValidator and they all passed with the following result...
qiime@qiime-190-virtual-box:~/fastQValidator$ /home/qiime/fastQValidator/bin/profile/fastQValidator --file /home/qiime/Desktop/Hilo_New/Hilo_join_paired_ends_fastq-join_labeled/MockComm_fastqjoin.join.fastq
Finished processing /home/qiime/Desktop/Hilo_New/Hilo_join_paired_ends_fastq-join_labeled/MockComm_fastqjoin.join.fastq with 58084 lines containing 14521 sequences.
There were a total of 0 errors.
Returning: 0 : FASTQ_SUCCESS
I also checked the header of my files and they all seem to look good

I was getting frustrated so I just tried a single file again to make sure it worked and it doesn't. I am getting the same error as above... I guess I don't know what's going on at all.Last edited by GenoMax; 08-02-2017, 03:48 AM.

Nice command GenoMax - think I'm learning something about loops! . But couldn't you just do something like this:
Move into the Hilo_New folder, create a new folder called "fastX-filterFastq", then do:
for i in *.fastq; do fastq_quality_filter –Q33 -q 19 -p 89 –i $i -o ./fastX-filterFastq/$(basename $i .fastq)_fqf.fastq; done
I was also under the impression that these bash loops didn't iterate until the current job was complete, so didn't need a 'sleep' call? Could be wrong there..

What two command are you referring to? I only have a single command line up there. I have not recently used fastx toolkit and I assume your command line is correct? Have you made sure your fastq files are in the correct format?

Okay, thanks for the clarification. Now I'm getting the following when I put in the two commands...
fastq_quality_filter: input file (-) has unknown file format (not FASTA or FASTQ), first character =
(10)
I'm not sure why this is happening since I can push a single file through the filter...

This is small bash script which is using a for loop.
"ls -1 /home/qiime/Desktop/Hilo_New/*.fastq | sed 's/.fastq//" - Takes the listing of files in your source directory (one at a time), removes the .fastq on the end of the file name using stream editor called "sed" (for reason mentioned below) and then assigns the first part of file name to a "variable" called i.
Variable i is then used to construct the fastx command line (one file at a time). For -i option we are adding the ".fastq" back on the variable i so the original file name is recreated. For -o (output file name) we are appending "_fqf.fastq" (which is what you had in your example) to make up a new file name while retaining the sample name (which is being saved in new output directory).
This process will iterate until all files in source directory are processed.

Thanks. Quick follow up... should I be pasting the entirety of the code as written? The coding language I don't understand is the "for i in 'ls -1" etc.
Is this all one command?
Thanks.

The complexity of cancer is clearly demonstrated in the diverse ecosystem of the tumor microenvironment (TME). The TME is made up of numerous cell types and its development begins with the changes that happen during oncogenesis. “Genomic mutations, copy number changes, epigenetic alterations, and alternative gene expression occur to varying degrees within the affected tumor cells,” explained Andrea O’Hara, Ph.D., Strategic Technical Specialist at Azenta. “As...-
