This is Merqury v1.3, compatible and tested with Meryl v1.3.

Download the release source file and extract. No additional compiling or building needed.
Simply add MERQURY as a path variable and we are good to go.

wget https://github.com/marbl/merqury/archive/v1.3.tar.gz
tar -zxvf v1.3.tar.gz
cd merqury-1.3
export MERQURY=$PWD

Add installation dir paths for dependent tools if modules for them are not available: bedtools, samtools, and Rscript to your environment (~/.bash_profile or ~/.profile). source it.

In case your computation environment modules aren't compatible, edit $MERQURY/util/util.sh's check_module to always echo 1.

Release note

  • Meryl has much improved in multi-threading and memory management. This will help getting ~3x speed up, especially for the meryl counting and set operations used in Merqury.
  • IGV .tdf files are no longer supported. Instead, wiggle (.wig) files are generated.
  • Using new meryl syntax.
  • Splitting fastq files for kmer counting is deprecated.
  • Force R to use cairo engine for plotting to avoid font gobbling and weird plotting issues.
  • Minor updates in help messages.
