Collectfasta

✓ import collectfasta

✗ from collectfasta import Collectfasta

Basic setup: add collectfasta to INSTALLED_APPS and configure your static files storage.

# settings.py INSTALLED_APPS = [ # ... 'collectfasta', ] # For S3 (using django-storages) STORAGES = { "default": { "BACKEND": "storages.backends.s3.S3Storage", }, "staticfiles": { "BACKEND": "storages.backends.s3.S3Storage", }, } # Optional: enable two-pass strategy for performance COLLECTFASTA_STRATEGY = "collectfasta.strategies.filesystem.FileSystemStrategy" # or use in-memory: # COLLECTFASTA_STRATEGY = "collectfasta.strategies.memory.MemoryStrategy"

Known issues

breakingIn version 3.3.0, the default strategy changed from the original single-pass to a two-pass strategy. If you rely on the old behavior, set COLLECTFASTA_STRATEGY to 'collectfasta.strategies.singlepass.SinglePassStrategy'.

fix

Explicitly set COLLECTFASTA_STRATEGY in settings if you need the old single-pass strategy.

affects: >=3.3.0

gotchaThe MAX_ENTRIES cache setting must be set properly for the two-pass strategy. Incorrect values can cause excessive memory or I/O.

fix

Ensure your cache backend's MAX_ENTRIES is set appropriately (e.g., for LocMemCache, default is 300; adjust based on your static file count).

affects: >=3.3.3

deprecatedThe setting 'COLLECTFASTA_THREADS' is deprecated in favor of the strategy-specific configuration.

fix

Use strategy parameters instead of global COLLECTFASTA_THREADS.

affects: >=3.2.0
