Summary Statistics TSV file Validator

A file validator for validating GWAS summary statistics TSV files prior to and post harmonisation using pandas_schema. The purpose is to validate files before their conversion to HDF5.

Requirements

  • python3

Installation

  • pip install ss-validate

Running the validator

To run the validator on a file:

  • ss-validate -f <file_to_validate.tsv> --logfile <logfile_name>

Information and errors are logged to the console and errors logged to the file specified. A console output might look like:

(INFO): Filename is good!
(INFO): Validating file...
(ERROR): Length of row 7 is: 16 instead of 15
(ERROR): Please fix the table. Some rows have different numbers of columns to the header
(INFO): Rows with different numbers of columns to the header are not validated
(ERROR): {row: 1, column: "p_value"}: "-99" was not in the range [0, 1)

The errors from the output tell us that row seven has too many columns and row one does not have a valid pvalue.

Addional options

  • --linelimit : int, default 1000

    Once this number of erroneous rows has been reached, stop looking for more.

  • --minrows : int, default 100000

    The minimum number of rows the file is required to have in order to validate sucZZcessfully.

  • --drop-bad-lines : bool, default False

    Drops the the lines with errors from the file and writes it to a new file called <file_to_validate.tsv.valid>

  • --stage : {'standard', 'harmonised', 'curated'}, default 'standard'

    The stage the file is in. It is either standard format ('standard'), harmonised ('harmonised') or pre-standard in the custom curated format ('curated'). Recommended to leave as default.

Import ss-validate to another python script

  • Install as above
  • Import and use in your python file
import validate.validator as ssv

# initialise a validator object for your summary statistics and settings 
validator = ssv.Validator(file='sumstats.tsv.gz', filetype='gwas-upload', error_limit=1, logfile='logfile.log')

# validate the headers
validator.validate_headers()

# validate the squareness
validator.validate_file_squareness()

# validate the data
validator.validate_data()
