Description

RNA-Seq QC — single-pass analysis of BAM/SAM/CRAM files.

Runs featureCounts, dupRadar, Qualimap, samtools stats, and RSeQC analyses
(infer_experiment, read_distribution, junction_annotation, junction_saturation,
inner_distance, read_duplication, TIN, bam_stat) in one pass over the input file.
Requires a GTF annotation and duplicate-marked (not removed) alignments.

Input / Output

Name	Type & Properties	Description
--input	file required multiple	Duplicate-marked alignment file(s) in SAM, BAM, or CRAM format. Multiple files can be provided and will be processed together.
--gtf -g	file required	GTF gene annotation file, plain or gzip-compressed.
--reference -r	file	Reference FASTA file. Required when input is in CRAM format.
--outdir -o	file required output	Output directory for all QC result files. Defaults to the current directory.
--sample_name	string	Override the sample name used for output filenames. Defaults to the BAM filename.
--flat_output	boolean_true	Write all output files directly into the output directory without subdirectories.
--config -c	file	YAML configuration file for RustQC tool parameters.
--json_summary -j	string	Path for the JSON summary output. Use `-` to write to stdout.

Library

Name	Type & Properties	Description
--stranded -s	string	Library strandedness for read counting and RSeQC analyses. - `unstranded`: reads are counted on either strand - `forward`: read 1 maps to the transcript strand (e.g. ligation-based) - `reverse`: read 2 maps to the transcript strand (e.g. dUTP)
--paired -p	boolean_true	Input reads are paired-end.

General

Name	Type & Properties	Description
--mapq -Q	integer	MAPQ cutoff for quality filtering. Reads below this threshold are excluded. Default: `30`.
--biotype_attribute	string	GTF attribute name used for biotype grouping in featureCounts summaries.
--skip_dup_check	boolean_true	Skip the check that verifies input alignments are duplicate-marked.
--quiet -q	boolean_true	Suppress all output except warnings and errors.
--verbose -v	boolean_true	Show additional detail during processing.
