PM4NGS: Program manager for NGS data analysis
=============================================

PM4NGS is designed to generate a standard organizational structure for Next-generation Sequencing
data analysis including a directory structure for the project, Jupyter notebooks for data management and CWL workflows
for pipeline execution.

Our work was inspired for a paper published by Prof. William Noble in 2009:
[A Quick Guide to Organizing Computational Biology Projects](https://journals.plos.org/ploscompbiol/article?id=10.1371/journal.pcbi.1000424). 
We strongly recommend reading this paper for a better understanding of the guiding principles of this project.

The projects are composed of three main parts. The first one is the **project organizational structure** which
define a standard files and directories for the project. The second part are **Jupyter Notebooks** as user
interfaces for data management and visualization. The third part are the **CWL workflows** that execute the data
analysis.

**PM4NGS** source code includes the templates used by **cookiecutter** to generate the project
organizational structure and the Jupyter notebooks. The CWL workflows are defined in a separate GitHub project named:
[cwl-ngs-workflows-cbb](https://github.com/ncbi/cwl-ngs-workflows-cbb).

Powered by [Cookiecutter](https://github.com/audreyr/cookiecutter), 
[Jupyter Notebook](https://jupyter.org/), [CWL](https://www.commonwl.org/), [Docker](https://www.docker.com), 
[Conda](https://pm4ngs.readthedocs.io/) and [Bioconda](https://pm4ngs.readthedocs.io/).

Features
---------
* NGS data integration, management and analysis based on Jupyter notebook, CWL workflows and cookiecutter project templates
* Easy installation and use with a minimum command line interaction.
* Data analysis CWL workflows executed from the Jupyter notebook with automatic failing detection and validated with published data
* CWL workflows and Jupyter Notebooks ready for cloud computing
* Project reports and dynamic content creation after data processing using CWL workflows
* Optional use of Docker/Biocontainers or Conda/Bioconda for Bioinformatics tool installation and management
