First, go to the dalmolingroup/euryale releases page and find the latest pipeline version - numeric only (eg. 1.3.1 ). Then specify this when running the pipeline with -r (one hyphen) - eg. -r 1.3.1 . Of course, you can switch to another version by changing the number after the -r flag. This version number will be logged in reports when you run the pipeline, so that you'll know what you used when you look back in the future.

We highly recommend the use of Docker or Singularity containers for full pipeline reproducibility, however when this is not possible, Conda is also supported. Note that multiple profiles can be loaded, for example: -profile test,docker - the order of arguments is important! They are loaded in sequence, so later profiles can overwrite earlier profiles.

If you click on the link to that file you will notice that there is a label directive at the top of the module that is set to label process_high . The Nextflow label directive allows us to organise workflow processes in separate groups which can be referenced in a configuration file to select and configure subset of processes having similar computing requirements. The default values for the process_high label are set in the pipeline's base.config which in this case is defined as 72GB. Providing you haven't set any other standard nf-core parameters to cap the maximum resources used by the pipeline then we can try and bypass the DIAMOND_BLASTX process failure by creating a custom config file that sets at least 72GB of memory, in this case increased to 300GB. The custom config below can then be provided to the pipeline via the -c parameter as highlighted in previous sections. process { withName: 'EURYALE:ALIGNMENT:DIAMOND_BLASTX' { memory = 300.GB } } NB: We specify the full process name i.e. EURYALE:ALIGNMENT:DIAMOND_BLASTX in the config file because this takes priority over the short name ( DIAMOND_BLASTX ) and allows existing configuration using the full process name to be correctly overridden.
