I have been playing a little with MultiQC. It could be used as the reporting framework.

On the plus side, it has a lot of really nice features

  • Interactive graphs
  • File discovery based on name
  • On the fly sample filtering

On the downside

  • Less control
  • Constrained to multiqc framework??

That linked yaml is very nice. As for the downsides, even if we have less control, it doesn't have to be the entire report -- it can be linked to from within a larger report where we have more control.

I found out about the -s param to multiqc -- that way it'll find, e.g., the fastqc files from raw and post-trimming and name them separately

I have been watching their repository, and I the author is very responsive. I really think we should considering making this the a large part of the reporting system.
