Command line

Bakta is a lightweight command line annotation software tool. It can be installed via BioConda, Docker, Singularity and Pip. However, we encourage to use Conda or Docker/Singularity to automatically install all required 3rd party dependencies. In all cases a mandatory database must be downloaded.

Example:

$ conda install -c conda-forge -c bioconda bakta

$ bakta_db download --output <db-path>

$ bakta --db <db-path> genome.fasta
