Hi,
I am a new learner of qiime2 and I am now trying to make a heatmap using the “moving picture tutorial” after the taxa collapse step. As is indicated in “qiime feature-table heatmap --help”, the “–m-metadata-column” is optional:
–m-metadata-column MetadataColumn[Categorical]
Column from metadata file or artifact
viewable as metadata. Annotate the sample
IDs with these metadata values. When
metadata is present and cluster
=‘feature’,
samples will be sorted by the metadata
values. [optional]
However, without the --m-matadata-column, the terminal returned:
Error: Missing option: --m-metadata-column
I do not need the column information in the heatmap. What should I do?
Kind regards
Hong
