nexus run --nf-workflow alignment_minimap2.nf \
    -c nextflow.config \
    -w work/ \
    --samples_tsv_file samples.tsv \
    --output_dir results/ \
    --reference_genome_fasta_file /path/to/file.fasta \
    --params_minimap2 "-ax map-hifi --cs --eqx -Y -L --secondary=no" \
    --platform_tag "unknown" \
    --platform_unit_tag "unknown" \
