Appendix A: Processor Definitions

JSON Name JSON Value(s)
path Absolute path to sequencer output
platformType One of the following:
  • ILLUMINA
  • PACBIO
  • OXFORDNANOPORE
name Illumina/PacBio:
  • "default"
  • "testing"
Oxford Nanopore:
  • "promethion"
  • "minion"
  • "testing"
timeZone Valid String ID for Java TimeZone, which is a TZ Database name. List of TZ Database names on Wikipedia
parameters Nested JSON Object:
JSON Name JSON Value(s)
ILLUMINA
checkOutput (optional)
  • true: Scanner will search for BCL files to verify run is complete if no logs are present. This can negatively affect processing speed over certain network filesystems. Default value.
  • false: Scanner will assume run is complete if no logs are present.
PACBIO
address (required) URL of PacBio Sequencer
OXFORDNANOPORE
(no additional parameters)

Appendix C: Sequencers Supported by Run Scanner

This is a list of sequencers for which Run Scanner is capable of processing output.

Bold items are verified to work with Run Scanner.

Italic items are under development.

Other sequencers are expected to work so long as their output is in the same format as a sequencer whose name is bolded, however they have not been tested.

If a sequencer is not included in this list, it should be assumed to be unsupported.
