Snakemake v8.25.0 error

[hschult]

DENIS hits an error with snakemake v8.25.0:

rule all:
    input:
        output_files
    message: f"Pipeline done. Started {start_time}"    

^ Seems to be from line 54 of the Snakefile.

Downgrading snakemake to v7.3.7 resolves the error.

Please excuse the wait time, this turned out to be three different issues at once, which resulted in a lot of trial and error on my side.

The first error did occur because of a missing new line at the end of my Snakefile. Older versions of Snakemake were fine with this but newer versions (e.g. Snakemake 8.25.0) are not. This is fixed and already on the main branch (#2).
The second error, which you reported for Snakemake 7.3.7 is a known bug caused by a dependency (see here). It can be manually fixed by installing tabulate=0.8.10 but is also fixed in Snakemake >=7.15.2. Upgrading Snakemake to 8.25.0 led me to the third bug, which is discussed here. From what I can tell, this was introduced with Snakemake 8 and unfortunately does not have a solution, yet. My recommendation is to use Snakemake >=7.15.2,<8.

Tldr: This pipeline is broken in Snakemake >=8. Use one installed with e.g. this: mamba install "snakemake>=7.15.2,<8".
