Long read simulator that can imitate many types of read problems

Commands

badread

Examples

Generate 10,000 simulated long reads from a FASTA reference$ badread simulate --reference genome.fasta --n_reads 10000 > reads.fastq
Simulate reads with specific error profile and length distribution$ badread simulate --reference genome.fasta --length 10000,5000 --error_model random --seed 12345 > reads.fastq
Generate reads with identity around 90% with chimeras$ badread simulate --reference genome.fasta --identity 85,95,4 --chimera 5 > reads.fastq
