Error executing process > consensus_classification in NanoCLUST

Hello, I'm trying to run NanoCLUST with my 16S sequence data. I run it on a Linux ubuntu 20.04 machine.

When I use the command: nextflow run main.nf -profile docker --reads "*.fastq" --db "db/16S_ribosomal_RNA" --tax "db/taxdb/"

I get the following terminal output:

Tip: you can try to figure out what's wrong by changing to the process work dir and showing the script file named `.command.sh`


WARN: To render the execution DAG in the required format it is required to install Graphviz -- See http://www.graphviz.org for more info.

Does anyone have had this problem and can help me to solve it?

Thanks a lot in advance

Hi, I've recently ran into this issue as well and came across this post, so I hope I can still help somebody by posting an answer.

The error has something to do with certain taxids from NCBI not being in the UniPept database and thus giving an empty response that makes the whole pipeline crash. The new code prevents this crash and gives the taxid(numerical) as classification output. If you want to know which classification belongs to the taxid, just search up the taxid in the NCBI database.

I changed the 'get_abundances.py' file in the templates directory of NanoCLUST. I removed this on line 22+:

try:
    name = json.loads(complete_tax)[0][tax_level_tag]
except:
    name = str(int(tax_id))
return json.loads(complete_tax)[0][tax_level_tag]

And I replaced it with these lines:

path = '[http://api.unipept.ugent.be/api/v1/taxonomy.json?input[]='(http://api.unipept.ugent.be/api/v1/taxonomy.json?input%5b%5d=%27) + str(int(tax_id)) + '&extra=true&names=true'
complete_tax = requests.get(path).text
# Check if the list returned by json.loads() is not empty
tax_list = json.loads(complete_tax)
if len(tax_list) > 0:
    name = tax_list[0][tax_level_tag]
else:
    name = str(int(tax_id))
return name

More information can be found in issue #80 that I opened on the NanoCLUST github page.
