Contributed to the LiLabAtVT/I2GDS2024 repository by delivering five features and a bug fix over two months, focusing on bioinformatics pipeline automation and documentation. Enhanced onboarding and reproducibility by overhauling README files, migrating dependency guidance from CheckM to CheckM2, and clarifying installation and workflow steps for tools like fastp and SPAdes. Developed a Bash automation script to streamline CheckM2 runs on genome assemblies, including parameter configuration and DIAMOND database downloads. Improved R Markdown notebooks and pipeline documentation to support data visualization and user guidance. Utilized Bash, R, and Markdown, emphasizing maintainability, reproducibility, and ease of use for new users.
November 2024 monthly summary for LiLabAtVT/I2GDS2024: Delivered key enhancements to CheckM2 usability, automation, and pipeline maintenance, focusing on business value, reproducibility, and developer productivity. Key deliverables include: improved user-facing documentation for CheckM2 installation, usage, and test run verification; an automated CheckM2 workflow script to run on genome assemblies with parameter configuration and DIAMOND DB download; deprecation and removal of the obsolete checkm2.sh from micro_g2 to reduce maintenance overhead; expanded micro_g2 pipeline docs and R Markdown notebooks with pipeline descriptions and visualization guidance; and a critical bug fix ensuring SPAdes environment is activated prior to running spades.py in the automation script. Overall impact: faster and more reliable CheckM2 runs, easier onboarding for new users, streamlined pipelines, and improved reproducibility across VT ARC environments. Technologies/skills demonstrated: Bash scripting, environment management, documentation (Markdown), R Markdown, data visualization, and version control discipline.
