Error: No such command “types”.

Can you pls guide me

Thanks @anwesh.
I followed this link for the qiime2 installation.
https://docs.qiime2.org/2018.11/install/
and I noticed that the QIIME 2 Core 2018.11 distribution includes the QIIME 2 framework, q2cli (a QIIME 2 command-line interface) and the following plugins:

  • q2-alignment
  • q2-composition
  • q2-cutadapt
  • q2-dada2
  • q2-deblur
  • q2-demux
  • q2-diversity
  • q2-emperor
  • q2-feature-classifier
  • q2-feature-table
  • q2-fragment-insertion
  • q2-gneiss
  • q2-longitudinal
  • q2-metadata
  • q2-phylogeny
  • q2-quality-control
  • q2-quality-filter
  • q2-sample-classifier
  • q2-taxa
  • q2-types
  • q2-vsearch
    and The Core distribution is necessary to run the command in qiime2. I am going right or not?

The q2-types plugin does not contain any commands, only formats, transformers, and semantic types used by other plugins. The error you saw is from q2cli, indicating as much.

For more info on which plugins are currently installed, please run qiime info - that will display all of the plugins currently installed, regardless of whether or not they have any Actions defined.

Keep on QIIMEin! :t_rex: :qiime2:
