wrong export_plots value in multiqc_config.yaml

[mashehu]

I ran into the following error after the template sync:

Missing output file(s) `multiqc_plots` expected by process `multiqc (1)`

When changing export_plots value in multiqc_config.yaml from true to True it worked, see nf-core/rnaseq#200

Not sure if it is really a bug, but at least I ran into it and it looks like it is still like that in the template.

That is odd. I was under the impression that YAML didn't care about the upper or lower case of true. Indeed if I do a quick test in Python that seems to be the case:

>>> import yaml
>>> y_string = '''
... var_1: true
... var_2: True
... var_3: truee
... '''
>>>
>>> yaml.safe_load(y_string)
{'var_1': True, 'var_2': True, 'var_3': 'truee'}

Just tested MultiQC locally with two multiqc_config.yaml files and it generated the exported plots with both true and True.

Could you check in the working directory and see the contents of multiqc_config.yaml please? Also paste the MultiQC log file?

argh, now it worked also with the old mulitqc_config.yaml. Sorry for bothering you.
