Galaxy tool to divide FASTQ files into paired and unpaired reads
================================================================

This tool is copyright 2010-2015 by Peter Cock, The James Hutton Institute
(formerly SCRI, Scottish Crop Research Institute), UK. All rights reserved.
See the licence text below (MIT licence).

This tool is a short Python script which divides a FASTQ file into paired
reads, and single or orphan reads. You can have separate files for the
forward/reverse reads, or have them interleaved in a single file.

Note that the FASTQ variant is unimportant (Sanger, Solexa, Illumina, or even
Color Space should all work equally well).

This tool is available from the Galaxy Tool Shed at:
http://toolshed.g2.bx.psu.edu/view/peterjc/fastq_paired_unpaired


Automated Installation
======================

This should be straightforward, Galaxy should automatically download and install
the tool from the Galaxy Tool Shed, and run the unit tests


Manual Installation
===================

There are just two files to install:

* ``fastq_paired_unpaired.py`` (the Python script)
* ``fastq_paired_unpaired.xml`` (the Galaxy tool definition)

The suggested location is in the Galaxy folder tools/fastq next to other FASTQ
tools provided with Galaxy.

You will also need to modify the ``tools_conf.xml`` file to tell Galaxy to offer
the tool. One suggested location is next to the ``fastq_filter.xml`` entry, or use
a dedicated folder like ``tools/fastq_paired_unpaired``. Then simply add the line::

    <tool file="fastq_paired_unpaired/fastq_paired_unpaired.xml" />

That's it.

v0.0.5  - Handle Illumina 1.8 style pair names
v0.0.6  - Record script version when run from Galaxy
        - Added unit test (FASTQ file using Sanger naming)
v0.0.7  - Link to Tool Shed added to help text and this documentation.
v0.0.8  - Use reStructuredText for this README file.
        - Adopt standard MIT License.
        - Updated citation information (Cock et al. 2013).

Developers
==========

This script and other tools for filtering FASTA, FASTQ and SFF files were
initially developed on the following hg branch:
http://bitbucket.org/peterjc/galaxy-central/src/fasta_filter

Development has now moved to a dedicated GitHub repository:
https://github.com/peterjc/pico_galaxy/tree/master/tools/fastq_paired_unpaired

For pushing a release to the test or main "Galaxy Tool Shed", use the following
Planemo commands (which requires you have set your Tool Shed access details in
``~/.planemo.yml`` and that you have access rights on the Tool Shed)::

    $ planemo shed_update --shed_target testtoolshed --check_diff ~/repositories/pico_galaxy/tools/fastq_paired_unpaired/
    ...

or::

    $ planemo shed_update --shed_target toolshed --check_diff ~/repositories/pico_galaxy/tools/fastq_paired_unpaired/
    ...

To just build and check the tar ball, use::

    $ planemo shed_upload --tar_only  ~/repositories/pico_galaxy/tools/fastq_paired_unpaired/
    ...
    $ tar -tzf shed_upload.tar.gz 
    test-data/sanger-pairs-forward.fastq
