I have the following nextflow script:
echo true
wd = "$params.wd"
geoid = "$params.geoid"
process step1 {
publishDir = "$wd/data/"
input:
val celFiles from "$wd/data/$geoid"
output:
file "${geoid}_datFiles.RData" into channel
"""
Rscript $wd/scripts/step1.R $celFiles $wd/data/${geoid}_datFiles.RData
"""
}
The Rscript contains the following commands:
step1=function(WD,
celFiles,
output) {
library(affy)
datFiles=ReadAffy(celfile.path=paste0(WD,"/",celFiles))
save(datFiles,file=output)
}
args=commandArgs(trailingOnly=TRUE)
WD=args[1]
celFiles=args[2]
output=args[3]
step1(WD,celFiles,output)
When it runs, the output file is saved in the directory I want ($wd/data/${geoid}_datFiles.RData). Given that publishDir points to the same directory, I would expect output (defined as "${geoid}_datFiles.RData") to be available under the publishDir directory.
However, I get the following error:
Missing output file(s) `GSE4290_datFiles.RData` expected by process `step1`
The log file suggests that nextflow is still looking for the output in the workflow created directory:
Process `step1` is unable to find [UnixPath]: `/Users/rebeccaeliscu/Desktop/workflow/affymetrix/nextflow/work/92/42afb131a36eb32ed780bd1bf3bc3b/GSE4290_datFiles.RData`
