Package: tinycov
tinycovTinycov is a small standalone command line utility written in python to plot the coverage of a BAM file quickly.
This software was inspired byMatt Edwards' genome coverage plotter.InstallationTo install the stable version:pip3 install --user tinycovTo install the development version:git clone https://github.com/cmdoret/tinycov.git
cd tinycov
pip install .InputOnly aBAMfile alignment is required as input. If it is not coordinate-sorted, tinycov will make a sorted copy namedinput.sorted.bamif the file is namedinput.bam.OutputIf no output is provided, the coverage plot will be displayed interactively using matplotlib. If--outis used, the plot will be saved in a format determined by the output file's extension.Additionally, if--textis provided, an output text file will be saved in thebedgraphformat with overlapping windows (depending on the values of--resand--skip).UsageThetinycovcommands can be invoked from the command line to list subcommands.Usage: tinycov [OPTIONS] COMMAND [ARGS]...

  tinycov: visualisation of coverage from BAM files using rolling window
  averages.

Options:
  --version  Show the version and exit.
  --help     Show this message and exit.

Commands:
  covhist  Visualise the histogram of coverage in rolling windows.
  covplot  Visualise coverage in rolling windows, optionally save results
           to...The covplot subcommand plots the coverage in sliding windows along the genome. A bedgraph file with the coverage of each window can be generated using the--textoption.Usage: tinycov covplot [OPTIONS] BAM

  Visualise coverage in rolling windows, optionally save results to a
  bedgraph file.

Options:
  -N, --no-filter          Use all reads. By default, PCR duplicates and
                           secondary alignments are excluded

  -m, --max-depth INTEGER  Maximum read depth permitted. Position with higher
                           coverage will set to this value

  -o, --out PATH           Output file where to write the plot. If not
                           provided, the plot is shown interactively

  -w, --whitelist TEXT     Only include those chromosomes in the plot. List of
                           comma-separated chromosome names.

  -b, --blacklist TEXT     Exclude those chromosomes from the plot. List of
                           comma-separated chromosome names.

  -n, --name TEXT          Name of the sample (plot title). Base name of input
                           file by default

  -B, --bins TEXT          Tab-separated file of three columns (chromosome,
                           start, end) without header containing a custom
                           binning to use. Overrides --res and --skip,
                           optional.

  -s, --skip INTEGER       Stride between windows, in basepairs.  [default:
                           1000]

  -r, --res INTEGER        Size of windows in which to compute coverage, in
                           basepairs.  [default: 10000]

  -t, --text PATH          Output file where to write the raw data table.
  -p, --ploidy INTEGER     Ploidy of input sample, used to estimate coverage
                           threshold for aneuploidies. Setting to 0 disables
                           estimations.

  --version                Show the version and exit.
  --help                   Show this message and exit.The covhist subcommands generates a histogram of coverage values by window. To get a histogram of coverage by basepair, just set--resto 1.Usage: tinycov covhist [OPTIONS] BAM
