Usage: qiime longitudinal volatility [OPTIONS]
Generate an interactive control chart depicting the longitudinal volatility
of sample metadata and/or feature frequencies across time (as set using the
"state_column" parameter). Any numeric metadata column (and metadata-
transformable artifacts, e.g., alpha diversity results) can be plotted on
the y-axis, and are selectable using the "metric_column" selector. Metric
values are averaged to compare across any categorical metadata column using
the "group_column" selector. Longitudinal volatility for individual subjects
sampled over time is co-plotted as "spaghetti" plots if the
"individual_id_column" parameter is used. state_column will typically be a
measure of time, but any numeric metadata column can be used.
Inputs:
--i-table ARTIFACT FeatureTable[RelativeFrequency]
Feature table containing metrics. [optional]
Parameters:
--m-metadata-file METADATA...

merged) [required]
--p-state-column TEXT Metadata column containing state (time) variable
information. [required]
--p-individual-id-column TEXT
Metadata column containing IDs for individual
subjects. [optional]
--p-default-group-column TEXT
The default metadata column on which to separate
groups for comparison (all categorical metadata
columns will be available in the visualization).
[optional]
--p-default-metric TEXT
Numeric metadata or artifact column to test by
default (all numeric metadata columns will be
available in the visualization). [optional]
--p-yscale TEXT Choices('linear', 'pow', 'sqrt', 'log')
y-axis scaling strategy to apply. [default: 'linear']
Outputs:

[required]
Miscellaneous:
--output-dir PATH Output unspecified results to a directory
--verbose / --quiet Display verbose output to stdout and/or stderr
during execution of this action. Or silence output if
execution is successful (silence is golden).
--example-data PATH Write example data and exit.
--citations Show citations and exit.
--use-cache DIRECTORY Specify the cache to be used for the intermediate
work of this action. If not provided, the default
cache under $TMP/qiime2/ will be used.
IMPORTANT FOR HPC USERS: If you are on an HPC system
and are using parallel execution it is important to
set this to a location that is globally accessible to
all nodes in the cluster.
