MultiQC v1.32

MultiQC

The MultiQC v1.32 release features one major change:

  • Bootstrap upgrade and DARK MODE (#3264)

This has been brewing for a long time, and is a large rewrite of how MultiQC HTML / CSS and JS is written and packaged.

MultiQC now supports simple theming with Bootstrap color modes, and the updated default template ships with both light- and dark-mode by default 😎.

The old template is still available, but has been renamed to original.

MultiQC v1.31

MultiQC

Adding new module for Xenium analysis, 10x Genomics Xenium spatial transcriptomics quality control report.

The parquet format is stable since 1.29, renaming the output file from BETA-multiqc.parquet to multiqc.parquet.

Fixes and improvements in AI summaries:​

  • AI summaries should now work with bioconda install multiqc without additional dependencies
  • Supporting other LLM providers with a custom endpoint passed through the command line (docs)
  • Option to anonymize sample names
