Bakta tool (GitHub)
https://github.com/oschwengers/bakta
Annotation tool for bacterial, archaeal, and viral genomes
Prokka uses Prodigal for its ORF predictions.
https://github.com/tseemann/prokka#introduction
Proka requires installation of additional tools: BioPerl, HMMER, etc ..,
apt-get install libdatetime-perl libxml-simple-perl libdigest-md5-perl git default-jre bioperl
# install HMMER
mkdir hmmer
cd hmmer/
wget http://eddylab.org/software/hmmer3/3.1b2/hmmer-3.1b2-linux-intel-x86_64.tar.gz
tar xvzf hmmer-3.1b1.tar.gz
sudo ./configure && make && make install

[..] Please rename your contigs or use --centre XXX to generate clean contig names.
Problem: contig names must be shorter than 20 characters to generate valid Genbank files
Solution: (a) Shorten contig names or (b) change variable $MAXCONTIGIDLEN at the top of the bin/prokka script.
