PG - 1133-1135 LID - 10.1093/bioinformatics/btab780 [doi] AB - 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. An example server is available at http://137.44.59.170. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Supplementary data are available at Bioinformatics online. CI - (c) The Author(s) 2021.
