pycov3 2.0.1

Generate cov3 files used in DEMIC

pycov3

A package for generating cov3 files which are generated from sam files giving coverage information and a fasta file giving binned contigs. Cov3 files are used as input for the DEMIC R package which calculates PTR, an estimate for bacterial growth rates.

Install it from PyPI

pip install pycov3

Usage

Create a SAM directory and FASTA directory, set any non-default window or coverage parameters, then create a COV3 directory and use it to generate a COV3 file for each contig set in the FASTA directory.

    from pycov3.Directory import Cov3Dir, FastaDir, SamDir

    sam_d = SamDir(Path("/path/to/sams/"), False)

    window_params = {
        "window_size": None,
        "window_step": None,
        "edge_length": sam_d.calculate_edge_length(),
    }
    coverage_params = {
        "mapq_cutoff": None,
        "mapl_cutoff": None,
        "max_mismatch_ratio": None,
    }
    window_params = {k: v for k, v in window_params.items() if v is not None}
    coverage_params = {k: v for k, v in coverage_params.items() if v is not None}

    fasta_d = FastaDir(Path("/path/to/fastas/"), False)

    cov3_d = Cov3Dir(
        Path(args.out_dir),
        False,
        fasta_d.get_filenames(),
        window_params,
        coverage_params,
    )

    cov3_d.generate(sam_d, fasta_d)

Alternatively, to use the bare application logic and do all the file handling yourself, you can use the Cov3Generator class which takes a list of generators as SAM inputs and a generator as a FASTA input.

    from pycov3.Cov3Generator import Cov3Generator
    from pycov3.File import Cov3File

    cov3_generator = Cov3Generator(
        sam_generators,
        fasta_generator,
        sample,
        bin_name,
        window_params,
        **coverage_params,
    )

    cov3_dict = cov3_generator.generate_cov3()

    # Write output
    cov3_file = Cov3File(Path(/path/to/output/), "001")
    cov3_file.write_generator(cov3_generator.generate_cov3())

$ python -m pycov3 -h
