How to download FASTQs from specific lanes using Basespace CLI

Basespace CLI can be used to do download FASTQ files from specific lanes with the following command:

bs download project -i [projectID] -o /output/directory --extension=fastq.gz --exclude '*' --include '*L00#*'

where # is the desired lane

If more than one lane is desired, add a second "--include" section following the first one:

bs download project -i [projectID] -o /output/directory --extension=fastq.gz --exclude '*' --include '*L00#*' --include '*L00#*'
