I would like to know your point of view on the module naming and subtools for the following PR: https://github.com/nf-core/modules/pull/11514 Documentation of the tool : https://github.com/bigbio/sdrf-pipelines/blob/main/README.md TLDR: only one tool name

parse_sdrf

with many options

validate-sdrf|convert-{openms,maxquant,msstats,mhcquant}|split-sdrf|...

My first thought would be to name the modules

PARSESDRF_SUBTOOLS

like bcftools.

Since this is the only command, it's effectively the name of the tool, so the usual

TOOL_SUBTOOL

naming should be appropriate

@Rike Hanssen and I relatively recently add examples in the modules specs: https://nf-co.re/docs/specifications/components/modules/general#module-granularity Does that help?

This does confirm it should

PARSESDRF_SUBTOOLS

, thanks !

Whoever named this must be a bioinformatician

Last question, the different converter use the same inputs, do we create a global

PARSESDRF_CONVERT

and give a

val(format)

to avoid having to duplicate for 4 output type ?

If they behave identically except for the format I'd say yes
