v0.3
db00c01

Lots of spit and polish added to MultiQC in this release - everything should now be properly documented and reports are quite a bit more stable.

Changelog

  • Lots of lovely new documentation!
  • Child templates - easily customise specific parts of the default report template
  • Plugin hooks - allow other tools to execute custom code during MultiQC execution
  • New Preseq module
  • New design for general statistics table (snazzy new background bars)
  • Further development of toolbox
    • New button to clear all filters
    • Warnings when samples are hidden, plus empty plots and table cols are hidden
    • Active toolbar tab buttons are highlighted
  • Lots of refactoring by @moonso to please the Pythonic gods
    • Switched to click instead of argparse to handle command line arguments
    • Code generally conforms to best practices better now.
  • Now able to supply multiple directories to search for reports
  • Logging output improved (now controlled by -q and -v for quiet and verbose)
  • More HTML output dealt with by the base module, less left to the modules
    • Module introduction text
    • General statistics table now much easier to add to (new helper functions)
  • Images, CSS and Javascript now included in HTML, meaning that there is a single
    report file to make sharing easier
  • More accessible scrolling in the report - styled scrollbars and 'to top' button.
  • Modules and templates now use setuptools entry points, facilitating plugins
    by other packages. Allows niche extensions whilst keeping the core codebase clean.
  • The general stats table now has a sticky header row when scrolling, thanks to
    some new javascript wizardry...
  • General stats columns can have a shared key which allows common colour schemes
    and data ranges. For instance, all columns describing a read count will now share
    their scale across modules.
  • General stats columns can be hidden and reordered with a new modal window.
  • Plotting code refactored, reports with many samples (>50 by default) don't
    automatically render to avoid freezing the browser.
  • Plots with highlighted and renamed samples now honour this when exporting to
    different file types.
