There are two main parameters used to achieve this. If you want to use local databases, set `--local_databases` to `true`. Remember to set `--use_all` to `false` to ensure the database step is run fully offline. If your input is especially large, you can also skip the initial online identification steps by setting `--offline_run` to `true`. Note that FASTA input will not work with this option enabled, and the pipeline will be aborted if this is attempted. You can check `test_offline.config` to see the required options for a fully offline run. Keep in mind that the options only affect ortholog finding, and the downstream analysis still requires connection to obtain sequences and structures. +With large input sizes, you might want to run the pipeline locally, without runtime access to APIs.

If your input is especially large, you can also skip the initial online identification steps by setting `--offline_run` to `true`. Note that FASTA input will not work with this option enabled, and the pipeline will be aborted if this is attempted. You can check [test_offline.config](https://github.com/nf-core/reportho/blob/master/conf/test_offline.config) to see the required options for a fully offline run. Keep in mind that the options only affect ortholog finding, and the downstream analysis still requires connection to obtain sequences and structures. While those options allow the pipeline to run its steps offline, the pipeline requires certain configuration files and container images that are downloaded from the internet. If you wish to run the pipeline on a machine without a connection, you can pre-download the required files with `nf-core download`. See [the nf-core tools documentation](https://nf-co.re/docs/nf-core-tools/pipelines/download) for details.
