[future][discussion] how to incorporate external modules ?

[mathysgrapotte]

Description of feature

Allow for data processing to be done by modules external from the stimulus-py package and not necessarily in python

Example :

Splitting a sequence dataset could be done using pairwise similarity + kmeans
There are many tools doing pairwise similarity, some even gpu accelerated, and some nf-core modules could do this

Current way to do this would be to wrap the method in python and bumb the pip package but it isn't the nf-core way, it would be much better if instead, we could re-use modules with some minor overhead for format/data processing.

This should be done while considering :

1. whether the tool should be ran or not depends on the experiment config
2. code should be kept clean (there are many tools that could interface with data processing - and the number will keep growing ), chaining IF/ELSE is not an option
3. good error handling (i.e. blast can't run on images for instance)
