annotate allele-counts.py @ 2:318fdf77aa54

Current version, from another toolshed Includes change in header line

#!/usr/bin/python
# This parses the output of Dan's "Naive Variant Detector" (previously,
# "BAM Coverage"). It was forked from the code of "bam-coverage.py".
#
# New in this version:
#   Made header line customizable
#     - separate from internal column labels, which are used as dict keys
#
# TODO:
# - test handling of -c 0 (and -f 0?)
# - should it technically handle data lines that start with a '#'?

DESCRIPTION = """This will parse the VCF output of Dan's "Naive Variant Caller" (aka "BAM Coverage") Galaxy tool. For each position reported, it counts the number of reads of each base, determines the major allele, minor allele (second most frequent variant), and number of alleles above a threshold. So currently it only considers SNVs (ACGT), including in the coverage figure. By default it reads from stdin and prints to stdout."""
EPILOG = """Requirements:
The input VCF must report the variants for each strand.
The variants should be case-sensitive (e.g. all capital base letters).
Strand bias: Both strands must show the same bases passing the frequency threshold (but not necessarily in the same order). If the site fails this test, the number of alleles is reported as 0."""
