I'm getting some unexpected failures trying to download some large plant genomes. My guess is that these downloads take a lot longer, so I need to modify parameters to avoid blocking by NCBI.

To fix:

  • could make # semaphore permits a modifiable parameter (currently 3, but maybe use 1 for large genomes).
  • can we use an API key to get a higher download limit?
  • need to double check that we're not attempting protein downloads when we're not keeping fastas + not generating protein signatures. Despite tests and outputs, I do see some "protein" filenames in the failures file, so let's check again. Attempting these downloads might be the cause of hitting ncbi download limits.

MRG: modify n simultaneous downloads; update buildutils (#154)
38d99b6 
This PR integrates the changes to `BuildUtils` (`MultiSelection`
details, minor changes to `BuildCollection` filtering + writing) that
arose from integration into branchwater. It also makes the number of
simultaneous downloads tunable, since I was having trouble when using
the 3 default permits with large eukaryotic genomes.

It also handles changes associated with zipfile handling from
sourmash-bio/sourmash#3431 arising from updating
sourmash core to 0.18.0
