What is sequana_pipetools ?
============================

**sequana_pipetools** is a set of tools to help us managing the `Sequana <https://sequana.readthedocs.io>`_ pipelines (NGS pipelines such as RNA-seq, Variant, ChIP-seq, etc).

The goal of this package is to make the deployment of `Sequana pipelines <https://sequana.readthedocs.io>`_ easier
by moving some of the common tools used by the different pipelines in a pure
Python library.


The Sequana framework used to have all bioinformatics, snakemake rules,
pipelines, tools to manage pipelines in a single library (Sequana) as described
in **Fig 1** here below.

:scale: 40%

**Figure 1** Old Sequana framework will all pipelines and Sequana library in the same
place including pipetools (this library).

Each time we changed anything, the entire library needed to be checked carefully
(even though we had 80% test coverage). Each time a pipeline was added, new
dependencies woule be needed, and so on. So, we first decided to make all
pipelines independent as shown in **Fig 2**:

:scale: 40%

**Figure 2** v0.8 of Sequana moved the Snakemake pipelines in indepdendent
repositories. A `cookie cutter <https://github.com/sequana/sequana_pipeline_template>`_
ease the creation of scuh pipelines

That way, we could change a pipeline without the need to update Sequana, and
vice-versa. This was already a great jump ahead. Yet, some tools reprensented
here by the *pipetools* box were required by all pipelines. This was mostly for
providing user interface, sanity check of input data, etc. This was moving fast
with new pipelines added every month. To make the pipelines and Sequana more
modular, we decided to create a pure Python library that would make the
pipelines even more independent as shown in **Fig3**. We called it
**sequana_pipetools**.

**Figure 3** New Sequana framework. The library itself with the core, the
bioinformatics tools is now independent of the pipelines. Besides, the
pipetools library provide common tools to all pipelines to help in their
creation/management. For instance, common parser for options.




Installation
============

from pypi website::

pip install sequana_pipetools

No dependencies for this package except Python itself. In practice, this package
has no interest if not used with a Sequana pipeline. So, when using it,
you will need to install the relevant Sequana pipelines that you wish to use.

This package is for `Sequana <https://sequana.readthedocs.io>`_ developers.
To get more help, go to the doc directory and build the local sphinx directory using::

make html
browse build/html/index.html

Quick tour
==========

There are currently two standalone tools. The first one is for Linux users under
bash to obtain completion of a sequana pipeline command line arguments::

sequana_completion --name fastqc

The second is used to introspect slurm files to get a summary of the SLURM log
files::

sequana_slurm_status --directory .

Will print a short summary report with common errors (if any).


The library is intended to help Sequana developers to design their pipelines.
See the `Sequana organization repository for examples <https://github.com/sequana>`_.

In addition to those standalones, sequana_pipetools goal is to provide utilities to help Sequana developers.
We currently provide a set of Options classes that should be used to
design the API of your pipelines. For example, the
sequana_pipetools.options.SlurmOptions can be used as follows inside a standard
Python module (the last two lines is where the magic happens)::

import argparse
from sequana_pipetools.options import *
from sequana_pipetools.misc import Colors
from sequana_pipetools.info import sequana_epilog, sequana_prolog

col = Colors()
NAME = "fastqc"

class Options(argparse.ArgumentParser):
def __init__(self, prog=NAME, epilog=None):
usage = col.purple(sequana_prolog.format(**{"name": NAME}))
super(Options, self).__init__(usage=usage, prog=prog, description="",
epilog=epilog,
formatter_class=argparse.ArgumentDefaultsHelpFormatter
)
# add a new group of options to the parser
so = SlurmOptions()
so.add_options(self)


Developers should look at e.g. module sequana_pipetools.options
for the API reference and one of the official sequana pipeline (e.g.,
https://github.com/sequana/sequana_variant_calling) to get help from examples.


The Options classes provided can be used and combined to design pipelines. The
code from sequana_pipetools is used within our template to automatically create
pipeline tree structure using a cookie cutter. This cookie cutter is available
in https://github.com/sequana/sequana_pipeline_template and as a
standalone in Sequana itself (sequana_init_pipeline).

What is Sequana ?
=================

**Sequana** is a versatile tool that provides

#. A Python library dedicated to NGS analysis (e.g., tools to visualise standard NGS formats).
#. A set of Pipelines dedicated to NGS in the form of Snakefiles
(Makefile-like with Python syntax based on snakemake framework) with more
than 80 re-usable rules.
#. Standalone applications.

See the `sequana home page <https://sequana.readthedocs.io>`_ for details.

0.5.2 * add TrimmingOptions class intended at replacing CutadaptOptions
* to avoid extra spaces, add '-o nospace' in all completion files
0.5.1 * fix typo
0.5.0 * add new module called error to be added in onerror sections of all
pipelines. Usual test update. Pin to stable version
