- - **Line 10**: Opens the input declaration block. The lines following this clause are interpreted as input definitions.
+### Key Concepts
- - **Line 11**: Declares the process input file, which will be named `input.fa` in the process script.
+This example demonstrates fundamental Nextflow concepts:
- - **Line 13**: Opens the output declaration block. The lines following this clause are interpreted as output declarations.
+- **Pipeline Parameters**: Use `params.in` to make your pipeline configurable from the command line
+- **Process Definitions**: Two processes that transform data sequentially - `splitSequences` splits a FASTA file, and `reverse` reverses each sequence
+- **Dataflow Programming**: Output from one process automatically becomes input to the next using the `|` operator
+- **Parallel Execution**: Each split file is processed independently by the `reverse` process
- - **Line 14**: Files whose names match the pattern `seq_*` are declared as the output of this process.
+### Running the Example
- - **Lines 16-18**: The actual script executed by the process to split the input file.
+```bash
+# Use default input file
+nextflow run main.nf
-- **Lines 24-35**: The second process, which receives the splits produced by the
- previous process and reverses their content.
+# Override input file
+nextflow run main.nf --in /path/to/your/sequences.fa
+```
- - **Line 26**: Opens the input declaration block. Lines following this clause are
- interpreted as input declarations.
-
- - **Line 27**: Defines the process input file.
-
- - **Line 29**: Opens the output declaration block. Lines following this clause are
- interpreted as output declarations.
-
- - **Line 30**: The standard output of the executed script is declared as the process
- output.
-
- - **Lines 32-34**: The actual script executed by the process to reverse the content of the input files.
-
-- **Lines 40-44**: The workflow that connects everything together!
-
- - **Line 41**: First, the input file specified by `params.in` is passed to the `splitSequences` process.
-
- - **Line 42**: The outputs of `splitSequences` are passed as inputs to the `reverse` process, which processes each split file in parallel.
-
- - **Line 43**: Finally, each output emitted by `reverse` is printed.
+The pipeline will split your FASTA file into individual sequences, reverse each one, and print the results.

+# Nextflow Examples
+
+This directory contains example Nextflow pipelines with their documentation pages.
+
+## Structure
+
+Each example follows a consistent structure:
+
+```
+example-name/
+├── index.mdx # Documentation page with explanation
+├── _main.nf # Nextflow pipeline script
+├── _nextflow_run_output.log # Captured pipeline execution output
+└── data/ # Input data files (if needed)
+ └── sample.fa # Sample input file
+```
+
+## File Naming Convention
+
+- **`_main.nf`**: Pipeline script (prefixed with `_` to avoid conflicts with actual `main.nf`)
+- **`_nextflow_run_output.log`**: Raw terminal output from running the pipeline
+- **`index.mdx`**: Documentation page that imports and displays both the pipeline code and execution output
+
+## Adding New Examples
+
+1. Create a new directory with a descriptive name
+2. Add the pipeline script as `_main.nf`
+3. Create any necessary input data in a `data/` subdirectory
+4. Run the pipeline and capture output:
+ ```bash
+ nextflow run _main.nf > _nextflow_run_output.log 2>&1
+ ```
+5. Create an `index.mdx` file that imports both files:
+ ```javascript
+ import pipelineCode from "./_main.nf?raw";
+ import terminalOutput from "./_nextflow_run_output.log?raw";
+ ```
+
+## Documentation Pages
+
+Each `index.mdx` file should include:
+
+- Clear explanation of what the pipeline does
+- Key concepts demonstrated
+- Code blocks showing both the pipeline and execution output
+- Usage instructions
+
+The pages use Expressive Code for syntax highlighting and the `ExampleLayout` for consistent styling.

+The pages use Expressive Code for syntax highlighting and the `ExampleLayout` for consistent styling.
+
+## ANSI Color Support
+
+Terminal output uses `lang="ansi"` to render colorized output. For this to work properly, the log file must contain **actual binary ANSI escape characters** (not text representations).
+
+### Key Requirements:
+- Use `printf` to generate files with real escape sequences
+- Binary escape character is `0x1B` followed by `[` and color codes
+- Text representations like `\x1B[` or `\e[` will render as literal text
+- Common ANSI codes:
+ - `\x1B[1;42m` - Bold white on green (Nextflow header)
+ - `\x1B[35m` - Magenta text
+ - `\x1B[36m` - Cyan text
+ - `\x1B[34m` - Blue text
+ - `\x1B[32m` - Green text (success indicators)
+ - `\x1B[0m` - Reset formatting

- **Dataflow Programming**: Output from one process automatically becomes input to the next using the `|` operator
- **Parallel Execution**: Each split file is processed independently by the `reverse` process
-### Running the Example

-# Use default input file
-nextflow run main.nf

-# Override input file
-nextflow run main.nf --in /path/to/your/sequences.fa

### Key Concepts
@@ -27,9 +33,10 @@ import terminalOutput from "./_nextflow_run_output.log?raw";
This example demonstrates fundamental Nextflow concepts:
- **Pipeline Parameters**: Use `params.in` to make your pipeline configurable from the command line
-- **Process Definitions**: Two processes that transform data sequentially - `splitSequences` splits a FASTA file, and `reverse` reverses each sequence
-- **Dataflow Programming**: Output from one process automatically becomes input to the next using the `|` operator
-- **Parallel Execution**: Each split file is processed independently by the `reverse` process
+- **Process Definition**: Define computational steps as isolated, reusable processes
+- **Parallel Processing**: Each split file is processed independently and automatically in parallel
+- **Data Input**: Pass data into workflows using parameter references
+- **Dataflow Programming**: Connect processes using the pipe (`|`) operator for seamless data flow

Mixing scripting languages
- With Nextflow, you are not limited to Bash scripts -- you can use any scripting language! In other words, for each{" "}
- process you can use the language that best fits the specific task or that you simply prefer.
+ This example shows how to use different scripting languages within the same pipeline. Each process can use the language that best fits the task - Perl for text processing, Python for data analysis, or any other interpreter.
-
+
-### Synopsis
+### Key Concepts
-In the above example we define a simple pipeline with two processes.
+This example demonstrates Nextflow's flexibility with multiple scripting languages:
-The first process executes a Perl script, because the script block definition starts
-with a Perl _shebang_ declaration (line 14). Since Perl uses the `$` character for variables, we use the special `shell` block instead of the normal `script` block to easily distinguish the Perl variables from the Nextflow variables.
-
-In the same way, the second process will execute a Python script, because the script block starts with a Python shebang (line 36).
+- **Language Flexibility**: Use any scripting language per process - Perl, Python, R, or any interpreter
+- **Shebang Declarations**: Define the script language with `#!/usr/bin/env `
+- **Shell vs Script Blocks**: Use `shell` blocks for languages with `$` variables (like Perl) to avoid conflicts with Nextflow variables
+- **Script Block Standard**: Use `script` blocks for languages like Python that don't conflict with Nextflow syntax
+- **Seamless Integration**: Different scripting languages work together seamlessly in the same pipeline

improvements
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit
## Blast Pipeline Fixes:
- Remove problematic global variables (db_name, db_dir)
- Add required script: labels to all processes
- Fix variable scoping by defining db_name within process scripts
- Use proper parameter passing and variable interpolation
- Clean up formatting with nextflow lint -format
## Machine Learning Pipeline Fixes:
- Replace incomplete skeleton with working ML pipeline
- Add complete process definitions: split_dataset, train_models, evaluate_models
- Implement proper Python scikit-learn workflow
- Add parallel model training and evaluation
- Use proper channel operations and data flow patterns
Both pipelines now pass nextflow lint checks and demonstrate proper Nextflow patterns.

-- Docker
+This example demonstrates advanced Nextflow patterns for bioinformatics workflows:
-Install Nextflow by entering the following command in the terminal:
+- **File Splitting**: Use `splitFasta()` to divide large files into manageable chunks for parallel processing
+- **Parallel Processing**: Each FASTA chunk is processed independently, maximizing resource utilization
+- **Parameter Configuration**: Customize query files, database paths, output names, and chunk sizes via command-line parameters
+- **Process Communication**: Data flows seamlessly between BLAST search and sequence extraction processes
+- **Result Aggregation**: Use `collectFile()` to merge distributed results into a single output file
+- **Database Handling**: Proper handling of BLAST database files and directory structures
- $ curl -fsSL https://get.nextflow.io | bash
-
-Then launch the pipeline with this command:
+### Try it on your computer
- $ ./nextflow run blast-example -with-docker
+To run this pipeline on your computer, you will need:
-It will automatically download the pipeline [GitHub repository](https://github.com/nextflow-io/blast-example) and the associated Docker images, thus the first execution may take a few minutes to complete depending on your network connection.
+
-**NOTE**: To run this example with versions of Nextflow older than 22.04.0, you must include the `-dsl2` flag with `nextflow run`.
+**NOTE**: This example requires BLAST+ tools and a properly formatted BLAST database to run successfully.

RNA-Seq pipeline
This example shows how to put together a basic RNA-Seq pipeline. It maps a collection of read-pairs to a given
- reference genome and outputs the respective transcript model.
+ reference transcriptome and quantifies gene expression levels using modern tools.
-
-
-
-
-### Try it in your computer
-
-To run this pipeline on your computer, you will need:
-
-- Unix-like operating system
-- Java 17 (or higher)
-- Docker
-
-Install Nextflow by entering the following command in the terminal:
-
- $ curl -fsSL get.nextflow.io | bash

+### Key Concepts
+
+This example demonstrates essential RNA-seq analysis patterns:
+
+- **Transcriptome Indexing**: Build a searchable index from the reference transcriptome for efficient alignment
+- **Quality Control**: Run FastQC to assess read quality and identify potential issues in the sequencing data
+- **Expression Quantification**: Use Salmon for accurate transcript abundance estimation with lightweight alignment
+- **Paired-end Processing**: Handle paired-end reads properly throughout the workflow
+- **Output Publishing**: Use `publishDir` to organize results in a structured output directory
+- **Resource Management**: Leverage `task.cpus` for optimal multi-threading performance
+
+### Try it on your computer
+
+
+
+**NOTE**: This example requires Salmon and FastQC tools to run successfully. The pipeline processes paired-end RNA-seq reads and produces quantified expression estimates.

RNA-Seq pipeline
- This example shows how to put together a basic RNA-Seq pipeline. It maps a collection of read-pairs to a given
- reference transcriptome and quantifies gene expression levels using modern tools.
+ This example shows the actual RNA-Seq pipeline from the nextflow-io/rnaseq-nf repository. It demonstrates a complete
+ RNA-seq analysis workflow including indexing, quality control, quantification, and report generation.
### Key Concepts
-This example demonstrates essential RNA-seq analysis patterns:
+This production RNA-seq pipeline demonstrates advanced Nextflow patterns:
-- **Transcriptome Indexing**: Build a searchable index from the reference transcriptome for efficient alignment
-- **Quality Control**: Run FastQC to assess read quality and identify potential issues in the sequencing data
-- **Expression Quantification**: Use Salmon for accurate transcript abundance estimation with lightweight alignment
-- **Paired-end Processing**: Handle paired-end reads properly throughout the workflow
-- **Output Publishing**: Use `publishDir` to organize results in a structured output directory
-- **Resource Management**: Leverage `task.cpus` for optimal multi-threading performance
+- **Real Production Pipeline**: Fetched directly from the official nextflow-io/rnaseq-nf repository
+- **Comprehensive Workflow**: Complete RNA-seq analysis from raw reads to final reports
+- **Modern Tools Integration**: Uses Salmon for quantification, FastQC for QC, and MultiQC for aggregated reporting
+- **Parameter Validation**: Robust input validation and help documentation
+- **Resource Optimization**: Proper CPU and memory allocation for each process
+- **Container Support**: Full Docker/Singularity container integration
+- **Output Organization**: Structured result publishing with meaningful directory names

/>
-**NOTE**: This example requires Salmon and FastQC tools to run successfully. The pipeline processes paired-end RNA-seq reads and produces quantified expression estimates.
+**NOTE**: This pipeline automatically downloads from GitHub and includes all necessary tools via containers. Run with `-with-docker` for the complete containerized experience.

Subject: [PATCH 22/23] feat: convert RNA-seq pipeline to standalone format and
apply linting
- Replace modular imports with inline process definitions for self-contained example
- Apply nextflow lint -format for proper code formatting and style consistency
- Update text markers to match new pipeline structure after formatting
- Maintain educational highlighting on empty lines for optimal label display
- Pipeline now passes Nextflow linting with zero errors

Machine Learning pipeline
- This example shows how to put together a basic Machine Learning pipeline. It fetches a dataset from OpenML, trains a
- variety of machine learning models on a prediction target, and selects the best model based on some evaluation
- criteria.
+ This example demonstrates a complete Machine Learning workflow using Nextflow. It splits a dataset, trains multiple
+ models in parallel (Random Forest, SVM, Logistic Regression), and evaluates their performance to find the best model.

-
-### Try it in your computer
-
-To run this pipeline on your computer, you will need:
-
-- Unix-like operating system
-- Java 17 (or higher)
-- Docker
-
-Install Nextflow by entering the following command in the terminal:
-
- $ curl -fsSL get.nextflow.io | bash
-
-Then launch the pipeline with this command:
-
- $ nextflow run ml-hyperopt -profile wave
-
-It will automatically download the pipeline [GitHub repository](https://github.com/nextflow-io/ml-hyperopt) and build a Docker image on-the-fly using [Wave](https://seqera.io/wave/), thus the first execution may take a few minutes to complete depending on your network connection.
-
-**NOTE**: Nextflow 22.10.0 or newer is required to run this pipeline with Wave.
+
+
+### Key Concepts
+
+This example demonstrates advanced Machine Learning patterns with Nextflow:
+
+- **Parallel Model Training**: Train multiple ML models simultaneously using the `each` operator
+- **Python Integration**: Embed scikit-learn scripts directly in Nextflow processes
+- **Data Splitting**: Automatically split datasets into training and testing subsets
+- **Model Serialization**: Save trained models using pickle for evaluation
+- **Performance Comparison**: Compare multiple models to find the best performing one
+- **Reproducible ML**: Use fixed random seeds for consistent results across runs
+
+### Try it on your computer
+
+
+
+**NOTE**: This pipeline requires Python with pandas and scikit-learn. The example demonstrates ML workflow patterns and parallel model training capabilities.
