Aggregate bioinformatics results across many samples into a single report.

PyPI Version Conda Version Build Status


MultiQC is a tool to create a single report with interactive plots for multiple bioinformatics analyses across many samples.

MultiQC is written in Python (tested with v2.7 / v3.4 / v3.5). It is available on the Python Package Index and through conda using Bioconda.

Reports are generated by scanning given directories for recognised log files. These are parsed and a single HTML report is generated summarising the statistics for all logs found. MultiQC reports can describe multiple analysis steps and large numbers of samples within a single plot, and multiple analysis tools making it ideal for routine fast quality control.

Currently, supported tools include:

More modules are being written all of the time. Please suggest any ideas as a new issue (include an example log file if possible).

Installation

You can install MultiQC from PyPI using pip as follows:

pip install multiqc

If you would like the development version instead, the command is:

pip install git+https://github.com/ewels/MultiQC.git

Alternatively, you can install using Conda from the bioconda channel:

conda install -c bioconda multiqc

Usage

Once installed, you can use MultiQC by navigating to your analysis directory (or a parent directory) and running the tool:

multiqc .

That's it! MultiQC will scan the specified directory ('.' is the current dir) and produce a report detailing whatever it finds.

The report is created in multiqc_report.html by default. Tab-delimited data files are also created in multiqc_data/, containing extra information. These can be easily inspected using Excel (use --data-format to get yaml or json instead).

For more detailed instructions, run multiqc -h or see the documentation.

Contributions & Support

Contributions and suggestions for new features are welcome, as are bug reports! Please create a new issue for any of these, including example reports where possible. MultiQC has extensive documentation describing how to write new modules, plugins and templates.
