#### microbial genome annotation and gene finding tool

pathogenie is a desktop and command line program for annotating draft bacterial
and viral genomes. It may also be used for quickly detecting arbitrary sequences such
as antibiotic resistance genes (AMR) proteins in nucleotide sequences. It uses Blast
to find hits to known gene sequences from sequence databases. The inputs are fasta files.
Annotation is performed in a similar manner to Prokka and first requires an assembled
genome if you have sequenced reads.
From the GUI you may load fasta files into a table and then run genome annotation or gene finding with custom databases. This program utilizes the sequence databases for gene finding compiled by abricate.
This program is under development. Suggestions are welcome.

## Enable snaps on Manjaro Linux and install pathogenie

Snaps are applications packaged with all their dependencies to run on all popular Linux distributions from a single build. They update automatically and roll back gracefully.

Snaps are discoverable and installable from the [Snap Store](https://snapcraft.io/store), an app store with an audience of millions.

### Enable snapd

Snapd can be installed from Manjaro’s Add/Remove Software application (Pamac), found in the launch menu. From the application, search for *snapd*, select the result, and click Apply.

Alternatively, *snapd* can be installed from the command line:

```
sudo pacman -S snapd
```

Once installed, the *systemd* unit that manages the main snap communication socket needs to be enabled:

```
sudo systemctl enable --now snapd.socket
```

To enable *classic* snap support, enter the following to create a symbolic link between `/var/lib/snapd/snap` and `/snap`:

```
sudo ln -s /var/lib/snapd/snap /snap
```

Either log out and back in again, or restart your system, to ensure snap’s paths are updated correctly.

### Install pathogenie
