        Introduction
        -------------
        
        The internally transcribed spacer region is a region between highly conserved the small
        subunit (SSU) of rRNA and the large subunit (LSU) of the rRNA. In Eukaryotes it contains
        the 5.8s genes and two variable length spacer regions. In amplicon sequening studies it is
        common practice to trim off the conserved (SSU, 5,8S or LSU) regions. `Bengtsson-Palme
        et al. (2013)`_ published software the software package ITSx_ to do this.
        
        ITSxpress is designed to support the calling of exact sequence variants rather than OTUs_.
        This newer method of sequence error-correction requires quality score data from each
        sequence, so each input sequence must be trimmed. ITSXpress makes this possible by
        taking FASTQ data, de-replicating the sequences then identifying the start and stop
        sites using HMMSearch.  Results are parsed and the trimmed files are returned. The ITS 1,
        ITS2 or the entire ITS region including the 5.8s rRNA gene can be selected. ITSxpress
        uses the hmm model from ITSx so results are comprable.

        Installation
        -------------
        ITSxpress can be installed from:
        
        1. Preferred method - Bioconda (to be done):
        
        .. code-block:: bash
        
            conda install itsxpress
        
        2. Pip: 
        
        .. code-block:: bash
        
            pip install itsxpress
        
        
        3. The Github repository: https://github.com/USDA-ARS-GBRU/itsxpress
        
        .. code-block:: bash
        
            git clone https://github.com/USDA-ARS-GBRU/itsxpress.git
        
        
        Dependencies
        -------------
        The software requires Vsearch, BBtools, Hmmer and Biopython. Bioconda takes care of this
        for you so it is the preferred installation method.
        
        
        Usage 
        ---------
        
        -h, --help            	Show this help message and exit.
        
        --fastq 				A ``.fastq``, ``.fq``, ``.fastq.gz`` or ``.fq.gz`` file. Interleaved
                                	or not.
                                
        --single_end 			A flag to specify if the fastq file is inteleaved.
                                	single-ended (not paired). Default is false.
                                
        --fastq2 				A ``.fastq``, ``.fq``, ``.fastq.gz`` or ``.fq.gz`` file representing read 2, optional.
        
        --outfile				The trimmed Fastq file, if it ends in ``gz`` it will be gzipped.
        
        --tempdir				Specify the temp file directory.
        
        --keeptemp				Should intermediate files be kept?
        
        --region 				Options : {ITS2, ITS1, ALL}
        
        --taxa					Select the taxonomic group sequenced: {Alveolata, Bryophyta,
        						Bacillariophyta, Amoebozoa, Euglenozoa, Fungi, Chlorophyta,
        						Rhodophyta, Phaeophyceae, Marchantiophyta, Metazoa, Microsporidia,
        						Oomycota, Haptophyceae, Raphidophyceae, Rhizaria, Synurophyceae,
        						Tracheophyta, Eustigmatophyceae, Apusozoa, Parabasalia}
        						
        --log		          	Log file
        
        --threads		     	Number of processor threads to use
        
        
        Examples
        ---------
        
        Use case 1: Trimming the ITS2 region from a fungal amplicon sequencing dataset with 
        forward and reverse gzipped fastq files using two cpu threads.
        
        .. code-block:: bash
        
            itsxpress --fastq r1.fastq.gz --fastq2 r2.fastq.gz --region ITS2 --taxa Fungi \
            --log logfile.txt --outfile trimmed_reads.fastq.gz --threads 2
        
        ITSxpress can take gzipped or ungzipped fastq files and it can write gzipped or 
        ungzipped fastq files. It expects fastq files to end in : .fq, .fastq, .fq.gz or fastq.gz
        
        
        Use case 2: Trimming the ITS2 region from a fungal amplicon sequencing dataset with 
        an interleaved gzipped fastq files using two cpu threads.
         
        .. code-block:: bash
        
            itsxpress --fastq interleaved.fastq.gz  --region ITS2 --taxa Fungi \
            --log logfile.txt --outfile trimmed_reads.fastq.gz --threads 2
        
        
        Use case 3: Trimming the ITS2 region from a fungal amplicon sequencing dataset with 
        an interleaved gzipped fastq files using two cpu threads.
         
        .. code-block:: bash
        
            itsxpress --fastq single-end.fastq.gz --single_end --region ITS2 --taxa Fungi \
            --log logfile.txt --outfile trimmed_reads.fastq.gz --threads 2
        
        Single ended data is less common and may come from a dataset where the reads have already 
        been merged.
        
        Use case 4: Trimming the ITS1 region from a Microsporidia amplicon sequencing dataset with 
        an interleaved gzipped fastq files using 40 cpu threads.
        
        .. code-block:: bash
        
            itsxpress --fastq interleaved.fastq.gz --region ITS1 --taxa Microsporidia \
            --log logfile.txt --outfile trimmed_reads.fastq.gz --threads 40
