Please look at swapping to using a topic channel to emit the version: https://nf-co.re/blog/2025/version_topics

Hi @SPPearce , I have resolved the concerns you mentioned in the comments, can you please go over them if everything's fine

Please look at swapping to using a topic channel to emit the version: https://nf-co.re/blog/2025/version_topics

This documentation over topics is a bit misleading and needs an update

Can you be more specific? It is very new, so if you can say what isn't correct or clear that would be very helpful

The section under versions_fastqc and the one under topics should be similar, that's how the linter understands it, this would be true in almost all cases. But in the documentation these sections do not match. So the meta.yml file screenshot can be updated.

FYI, the docs have been adjusted, thank you for your feedback: nf-core/website#3689

A minor change to the versions (and you can try using a val directly for the version string, I haven't done a topic with a hardcoded version as yet). Please add some more ontologies too, definitely the FASTA one. nf-core modules lint --fix may do some for you (see https://nf-co.re/blog/2025/modules-ontology#using-nf-core-helper-tools)

Hi @SPPearce , I tried it and val("${VERSION}") does not work. I think the meta.yml linter only understands eval("echo ${VERSION}")
