Request: pre-built databases for download

Opened this issue · 0 comments

Hi,

it's just an idea but it would be great if some databases like UniRef90 or NCBI's nr could be downloaded in a pre-built manner.

There is https://benlangmead.github.io/aws-indexes/ for Kraken2, which makes it so much more convenient and faster to work with Kraken2, then to wait for days til databases have been downloaded and set up correctly.

Anyway, diamond is a great program (but it takes ages to setup databases),

Cheers Bastian
