Hello,


I'm using BinSanity v0.2.5.9 and have encountered a small issue. When running the program it creates the directory 'binsanity-checkm' in the current working directory. As a consequence, if another instance o f BinSanity is run in the same directory it will fail as this directory will already exist. Would it be possible to give this directory a unique/temporary name in order to avoid this conflict? I often run binning methods in parallel over multiple independent samples so this situation is problematic.


I also posted this as a GitHub issue, before running across this group. Sorry for the cross post.


Thanks,
Donovan

Hi Donovan,

That is definitely an issue I hadn't considered, but should be easily fixable. I'll play around with the most efficient way to do this and let you know as soon as it's updated.

If there are any more user issues like this you've noticed that could be improved upon I'm happy to look in to trying to make the outputs more friendly!

Regards,
Elaina

Hi Donovan, 

I updated Binsanity-wf and Binsanity-lc with a new flag to make running things in paralell in the same directory possible. There is now a `--Prefix` flag that can be invoked and whatever prefix you specify will be appended to the all of the directories, logfiles, etc. that BinSanity produces throughout.

Elaina
