This is a KBase module generated by the KBase Software Development Kit (SDK).
You will need to have the SDK installed to use this module. Learn more about the SDK and how to use it.
You can also learn more about the apps implemented in this module from its catalog page or its spec file.
This KBase apps wraps the GTDB-Tk commandline tool created by Donavan Parks, Pierre-Alain Chaumeil, and Phil Hugenholtz of the Austrailian Centre for Ecogenomics
GTDB-Tk is a software toolkit for assigning objective taxonomic classifications to bacterial and archaeal genomes. It is designed to work with recent advances that allow hundreds or thousands of metagenome-assembled genomes (MAGs) to be obtained directly from environmental samples. It can also be applied to isolate and single-cell genomes. The GTDB-Tk is open source and released under the GNU General Public License (Version 3).
A manuscript describing the GTDB-Tk is currently being prepared:
- Chaumeil PA, Hugenholtz P, Parks DH. 2018. GTDB-Tk: A toolkit to classify genomes with the Genome Taxonomy Database. <in prep>.

Add your KBase developer token to test_local/test.cfg
and run the following:
$ make
$ kb-sdk test
After making any additional changes to this repo, run kb-sdk test
again to verify that everything still works.
To use this code in another SDK module, call kb-sdk install kb_gtdbtk
in the other module's root directory.
