Start Command

The Flux Simulator provides a wrapper script to launch the program from predominant shell interpreters of major platforms.

shell

(Linux/Unix)

$ flux -t simulator

cmd

(Windows)

 C:\>flux.bat -t simulator

When started without parameters, the Flux Simulator provides a list of command line flags that can be provided when starting the program.

[USAGE]
 simulator -p <file> [-l] [-o] [-s] [-x] 
[DESCRIPTION]
 Flux Simulation Pipeline
[OPTIONS]
	-p --parameter       <file> specify parameter file (PAR file) 
	-l --library                simulate library construction     
	-o --printParameters        Print default parameters          
	-s --sequence               simulate sequencing               
	-x --express                simulate expression  

Parameter

As can be seen by the default output above, the Flux Simulator requires a parameter file to be specified by the command line flag "-p". A parameter file contains a list of parameter/value pairs, one per line and separated from each other by white spaces. An overview of parameters that can be contained in the parameter file with explanations and their respective default values is output with the flag "-o".

$ flux -t simulator -o
