We suggest to install mOTUs through conda:

conda install -c bioconda motus

Otherwise you can install using pip:

# Download and install mOTUs
pip install motu-profiler
# Download the mOTUs database
motus downloadDB

where you have to install the depndecies on your own. For example you could create a conda enviroment:

conda env create -f env/mOTUs_env.yaml
source activate mOTUs_env

You can test that motus is intalled correctly with:

motus profile --test

Install from GitHub

Clone the motus repository:

git clone https://github.com/motu-tool/mOTUs_v2.git

Move to into the repository and run the setup:

cd motus
python setup.py sdist

Finally download the database (this can take few minutes):

motus downloadDB
