+
+Main tool & documentation: [freyja](https://github.com/andersen-lab/Freyja)
+
+Freyja is a tool to recover relative lineage abundances from mixed SARS-CoV-2 samples from a sequencing dataset (BAM aligned to the Hu-1 reference). The method uses lineage-determining mutational "barcodes" derived from the UShER global phylogenetic tree as a basis set to solve the constrained (unit sum, non-negative) de-mixing problem.
+
+## freyja barcodes
+
+This docker image was built on **2024-10-28** and the command `freyja update` is run as part of the build to retrieve the most up-to-date database. The barcode version included in this docker image is **`10_27_2024-01-41`** as reported by `freyja demix --version`
+
+This image is rebuilt every day on Dockerhub and Quay.io with the tag ${freyja version}-${freyja database version}-${data image was deployed}.
+
+## Example Usage
+
+```bash
+# run freyja variants to call variants from an aligned SC2 bam file
+freyja variants [bamfile] --variants [variant outfile name] --depths [depths outfile name] --ref [reference.fa]
+
+# run freyja demix to identify lineages based on called variants
+freyja demix [variants-file] [depth-file] --output [output-file]
+```
+
+Warning: `freyja update` does not work under all conditions. You may need to specify an output directory (`freyja update --outdir /path/to/outdir`) for which your user has write privileges, such as a mounted volume.
