Abstract
Summary: minoTour offers a Laboratory Informations Management System (LIMS) system for Oxford Nanopore Technology sequencers, with real-time metrics and analysis available permanently for review. Integration of unique real-time automated analysis can reduce the time required to answer biological questions, including mapping and classification of sequence while a run is in progress. Real-time sequence data require new methods of analysis which do not wait for the completion of a run and minoTour provides a framework to allow users to exploit these features.
Availability and implementation: Source code and documentation are available at https://github.com/LooseLab/minotourcli and https://github.com/LooseLab/minotourapp. Docker images are available from https://hub.docker.com/r/adoni5/, and can be installed using a preconfigured docker-compose script at https://github.com/LooseLab/minotour-docker.
