Installation

Prerequisites

Adapter Trimming: Trim Galore!

Deduplication: FastUniq

Alignment: VG Giraffe

Python3: Tested on 3.9, 3.10, 3.11 and 3.12. I would recommend 3.12 as it is the latest version and has the best performance.

VG: Tested from 1.49 to 1.63.1

1.61.0 is recommended at the moment: from 1.49 to 1.61 all seems fine, however the short read mapping speed is around 3 times slower than the previous versions.

Warning

You must ensure that both the VG toolkit and Python 3 are installed and added to your PATH.

Install via PIP

pip install methylGrapher

Install via CONDA

conda create -n methylGrapher python=3.12
conda activate methylGrapher
# Not recommended, but if you want to use conda to install vg, you can do so. Download VG from their release page instead.
