If I understand it correctly you have to pay for what should be considered basic security features in the #nextflow Seqera platform… which is a bit disappointing…
Massive engineering changes for modularity, #NextFlow workflows, data:code separation, etc - Matthias Blum “InterProScan 6: a modern large-scale protein function annotation pipeline” #BOSC2025 #ISMBECCB2025
how to use #nextflow "multiMap' to transform a channel if the 'input' of an existing module doesn't fit your needs.
eg: you want
tuple val(meta), path(bam),path(bed)
while the module was designed the following way:
tuple val(meta1), path(bed)
tuple val(meta2), path(bam)

thanks a lot @mbp for the tip !

1/ Ok, so I finally figured out the interesting (i.e. painful) error I’ve been chasing in my #Nextflow genomic mapping pipeline the past few days.
Basically, I’ve got hundreds of bwa mem mapping jobs running as separate processes in Docker containers, grouped on large AWS EC2 instances. Seemingly randomly some samples would fail during the subsequent mark duplicates process due to issues with the read group (@RG) headers.
