A command-line interface for functions of the Scanpy suite, to facilitate flexible constrution of workflows, for example in Galaxy, Nextflow, Snakemake etc.
The recommended way of using this package is through the latest container produced by Bioconda here. If you must, one can install scanpy-scripts via conda:
conda install scanpy-scripts
pip installation is also possible, however the version of mnnpy is not patched as in the conda version, and so the integrate
command will not work.
pip install scanpy-scripts
For development installation, we suggest following the github actions python-package.yml file.
Currently, tests run on python 3.9, so those are the recommended versions if not installing via conda. BKNN doesn't currently install on Python 3.10 due to a skip in Bioconda.
There is an example script included:
scanpy-scripts-tests.bats
This requires the bats testing framework to run. The script downloads a well-known test 10X dataset and executes all of the commands described below.
Available commands are described below. Each has usage instructions available via --help
, consult function documentation in scanpy for further details.
Usage: scanpy-cli [OPTIONS] COMMAND [ARGS]...

Major and major versions will follow the scanpy versions. The first digit of the patch should follow the scanpy patch version as well, subsequent digits in the patch are reserved for changes in this repository.
