Bayesian genotyper for structural variants

## Overview

SVTyper performs breakpoint genotyping of structural variants (SVs) using whole genome sequencing data. Users must supply a VCF file of sites to genotype (which may be generated by [LUMPY](https://github.com/arq5x/lumpy-sv)) as well as a BAM/CRAM file of Illumina paired-end reads aligned with [BWA-MEM](https://github.com/lh3/bwa). SVTyper assesses discordant and concordant reads from paired-end and split-read alignments to infer genotypes at each site. Algorithm details and benchmarking are described in [Chiang et al., 2015](http://www.nature.com/nmeth/journal/vaop/ncurrent/full/nmeth.3505.html).

## Installation

Requirements:
- Python 2.7.x

### Install via `pip`

pip install git+https://github.com/hall-lab/svtyper.git

`svtyper` depends on [pysam][0] _(version 0.12.0 or newer)_, [numpy][1], and [scipy][2]; `svtyper-sso` additionally depends on [cytoolz][7]. If the dependencies aren't already available on your system, `pip` will attempt to download and install them.

## `svtyper` vs `svtyper-sso`

`svtyper` is the original implementation of the genotyping algorithm, and works with multiple samples. `svtyper-sso` is an alternative implementation of `svtyper` that is optimized for genotyping a single sample. `svtyper-sso` is a parallelized implementation of `svtyper` that takes advantage of multiple CPU cores via the [multiprocessing][8] module. `svtyper-sso` can offer a 2x or more speedup (depending on how many CPU cores used) in genotyping a single sample.

## Example Usage

### `svtyper`

#### As a Command Line Python Script

```bash
svtyper \
-i sv.vcf \
-B sample.bam \
-l sample.bam.json \
> sv.gt.vcf
```

#### As a Python Library

```python
import svtyper.classic as svt

input_vcf = "/path/to/input.vcf"
input_bam = "/path/to/input.bam"
library_info = "/path/to/library_info.json"
output_vcf = "/path/to/output.vcf"

with open(input_vcf, "r") as inf, open(output_vcf, "w") as outf:
svt.sv_genotype(bam_string=input_bam,
vcf_in=inf,
vcf_out=outf,
min_aligned=20,
split_weight=1,
disc_weight=1,
num_samp=1000000,
lib_info_path=library_info,
debug=False,
alignment_outpath=None,
ref_fasta=None,
sum_quals=False,
max_reads=None)

# Results will be inside the /path/to/output.vcf file
```

### `svtyper-sso`

#### As a Command Line Python Script

```bash
svtyper-sso \
--core 2 # number of cpu cores to use \
--batch_size 1000 # number of SVs to process in a single batch (default: 1000) \
--max_reads 1000 # skip genotyping if SV contains valid reads greater than this threshold (default: 1000) \
-i sv.vcf \
-B sample.bam \
-l sample.bam.json \
> sv.gt.vcf
```

#### As a Python Library

```python
import svtyper.singlesample as sso

input_vcf = "/path/to/input.vcf"
input_bam = "/path/to/input.bam"
library_info = "/path/to/library_info.json"
output_vcf = "/path/to/output.vcf"

with open(input_vcf, "r") as inf, open(output_vcf, "w") as outf:
sso.sso_genotype(bam_string=input_bam,
vcf_in=inf,
vcf_out=outf,
min_aligned=20,
split_weight=1,
disc_weight=1,
num_samp=1000000,
lib_info_path=library_info,
debug=False,
alignment_outpath=None,
ref_fasta=None,
sum_quals=False,
max_reads=1000,
cores=2,
batch_size=1000)

# Results will be inside the /path/to/output.vcf file
```

## Development

Requirements:
- Python 2.7 or newer
- GNU Make
- [virtualenv][3] _(or [conda][4] for [anaconda][5] or [miniconda][6] users)_

### Setting Up a Development Environment

#### Using `virtualenv`

git clone https://github.com/hall-lab/svtyper.git
cd svtyper
virtualenv myvenv
source myvenv/bin/activate
pip install -e .
<add, edit, or delete code>
make test

# when you're finished with development
git push <remote-name> <branch>
deactivate
cd .. && rm -rf svtyper

#### Using `conda`

git clone https://github.com/hall-lab/svtyper.git
cd svtyper
conda create --channel bioconda --name mycenv pysam numpy scipy cytoolz # type 'y' when prompted with "proceed ([y]/n)?"
source activate mycenv
pip install -e .
<add, edit, or delete code>
make test


# when you're finished with development
git push <remote-name> <branch>
source deactivate
cd .. && rm -rf svtyper
conda remove --name mycenv --all

## Troubleshooting

Many common issues are related to abnormal insert size distributions in the BAM file. SVTyper provides methods to assess and visualize the characteristics of sequencing libraries.

Running SVTyper with the `-l` flag creates a JSON file with essential metrics on a BAM file. SVTyper will sample the first N reads for the file (1 million by default) to parse the libraries, read groups, and insert size histograms. This can be done in the absence of a VCF file.
```
svtyper \
-B my.bam \
-l my.bam.json
```

The [lib_stats.R](scripts/lib_stats.R) script produces insert size histograms from the JSON file
