ENH: Accept MAPLE file as alternative to fasta

corneliusroemer opened this issue · comments

I think it could speed up the algorithm quite a bit if you accepted sequences in MAPLE format rather than fasta.

Maple contains basically all the info you want, all the mutations. So there's be no need to recompute.

I can see if we can produce MAPLE files from Nextclade. It would make sense to produce a human readable complete output.

It's probably a bit early to implement this before there are good tools to produce maple files - but I think it's neat that this format would speed up sc2rf a lot!
