Process

`Name`	`BRACKEN_BUILD`

Input 1 channel

#1 tuple

`meta` map	Groovy Map containing sample information e.g. `[ id:'sample1', single_end:false ]`
`k2d` file	Kraken2 k2d binary database files `*.k2d`
`map` file	Kraken2 k2d binary database taxonomy to sequencing mapping file `*.map`
`library` file	Kraken2 masked FASTA files used to build the database `*.fasta`
`taxonomy` file	Kraken2 nodes.dmp, names.dmp, and .accession2taxid taxonomy files `*.{dmp,accession2taxid}`

Output 3 channels

#1 db tuple

meta map

Groovy Map containing sample information e.g. [ id:'sample1', single_end:false ]

bracken-database/ directory

Directory contains the database that can be used to perform taxonomic classification

IMPORTANT: this output directory will be hardcoded as 'bracken-database/' inside the module to prevent issues of containers following symlinks in symlinks.

To give a user the option to provide custom name for the database directory within a pipeline, you should customise this name using during pipeline output publication via the pipeline's publishDir or workflow output customisation options.
