Description: # allestm
        Predicting various structural features of transmembrane proteins.
        
        ## Prerequisites
        
        ### Installing and running HHblits
        Allestm uses a multiple sequence alignment in a3m format as input which has
        first to be created by HHblits, a database search tool.
        HHblits and detailed installation instructions can be found on its [GitHub page](https://github.com/soedinglab/hh-suite).
        
        Here is a short extract:
        ```
        git clone https://github.com/soedinglab/hh-suite.git
        mkdir -p hh-suite/build && cd hh-suite/build
        cmake -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=. ..
        make -j 4 && make install
        ```
        
        After installation, a database can be downloaded from
        [here](http://gwdu111.gwdg.de/~compbiol/uniclust/2018_08/uniclust30_2018_08_hhsuite.tar.gz). Make sure you check for the lastest version [here](https://uniclust.mmseqs.com/).
        
        After extracting the database using `tar -xvf uniclust30_2018_08_hhsuite.tar.gz`, HHblits can be run with the following command:
        
        ```
        hhblits -i infile.fasta -o output.hhr -oa3m msa.a3m -d PATH_TO_DB/uniclust30_2018_08/uniclust30_2018_08, -maxfilt 99999999
        ```
        
        The `maxfilt` option is important to include all hits, the `msa.a3m` output
        file will serve as input for allestm.
        
        
        ### Computing requirements
        Allestm uses more than 100 different trained models and some of them are quite
        large. The tool was tested on a machine with 16 GB RAM which is the minimum for
        it to work. If you experience issues and have a machine with 'only' 16 GB of
        RAM, consider closing all other programs you have running.
        
        During the first run, all models will be downloaded as they are not included in
        the package. The download size in total
        will be about 11 GB, therefore make sure that you have a fast internet
        connection during that first run. Just to clarify, after the models are
        downloaded and allestm finds them this download does not have to be repeated.
        
        ## Installation
        
        ### From PyPI

        ### From source
        The package can easily be installed from the latest source here in the repo.
        
        ```
        git clone https://github.com/phngs/allestm.git
        cd allestm
        pip install --user .
        ```
        
        All dependencies like tensorflow and scikit-learn will be automatically
        installed. If you want to use tensorflow with GPU support, make sure you
        install it yourself (the speedup will be marginal, if noticable at all).
        
        
        ### Model files
        The model files will be downloaded automatically (about 11 GB) if allestm does not find them. The `-m` parameter gives you the possibility to specify you own location for the model files, if not given, allestm will download them into the package directory. The `-m` flag can become handy if 
        
        - The package was installed into a system directory and there is no possiblity
          to store the model files there, e.g. because of missing permissions.
        - The model files should be stored in a location which is accessible over the
          network, so that allestm can be run on a cluster.
        
        ## Usage
        To get information about the command line options call:
        
        ```
        allestm -h
        ```
        
        Allestm can be run using the following command:
        
        ```
        allestm msa.a3m output.json
        ```
