# Chanjo
Chanjo is coverage analysis for clinical sequencing. It's implemented in Python with a command line interface that adheres to [UNIX pipeline philisophy][unix].

## Installation
Chanjo is distruibuted through "pip". Install the latest release by running:

```bash
$ pip install chanjo
```

... or locally for development:

```bash
$ git clone https://github.com/robinandeer/chanjo.git && cd chanjo
$ pip install --editable .
```

Do note that Chanjo is built on some of kind-of tricky dependencies. If you are experiencing any issues, help is just a click away in the [documentation][docs].

## Usage
Chanjo exposes a composable command line interface. You can always save intermediary files at any stage and customize every option. However, using a ``chanjo.toml`` config and UNIX pipes you can end up with something like:

```bash
$ chanjo convert CCDS.sorted.txt | chanjo annotate alignment.bam > coverage.bed
```

## Documentation
Read the Docs is hosting the [official documentation][docs].

I can specifically recommend the fully [interactive demo](http://www.chanjo.co/en/latest/introduction.html#demo), complete with sample data to get you started right away.

## Features

### What Chanjo does
Chanjo works on BAM alignment files and extracts interesting coverage related statistics. You use a BED-file to define which regions of the genome that you particularly care about. The output takes the shape of an extended BED-file.

An optional final step is to load data into a SQL database. This will aggregate data from exons to transcripts and genes. The database will later work as an API to downstream tools like the Chanjo Coverage Report generator.

### What Chanjo doesn't
Chanjo is not the right choice if you care about coverage for every base across the entire genome. Detailed histograms is something [BEDTools][bedtools] already handles with confidence.
