# blastp_on_cluster
Script to run the BLAST step included in OrthoFinder on a cluster (OGE)

## How it works

You need to run OrthoFinder using the **-op** option, to **only prepare** the blast files. At the end it will output the commands required and print them on the screen. This script will catch those commands and submit them as multi-threaded blast jobs.

As such the clusters scheduler and queue is used, which is much more efficient than the one included in OrthoFinder. Also this allows the BLAST to run on multiple machines simultaniously.

## Usage

orthofinder.py -f <FASTA_DIR> -op | python3 blast_on_cluster.py
