-- Previously, on the fly indices didn't have dictionary set on the fly, so the GATK would read, add dictionary, and rewrite the index. This is now fixed, so that the on the fly index contains the reference dictionary when first written, avoiding the unnecessary read and write
-- Added a GenomeAnalysisEngine and Walker function called getMasterSequenceDictionary() that fetches the reference sequence dictionary. This can be used conveniently everywhere, and is what's written into the Tribble index
-- Refactored tribble index utilities from RMDTrackBuilder into IndexDictionaryUtils
-- VCFWriter now requires the master sequence dictionary
-- Updated walkers that create VCFWriters to provide the master sequence dictionary
Now the functions getRefCoordSoftUnclippedStart and getRefCoordSoftUnclippedEnd will return getUnclippedStart if the read is all contained within an insertion. Updated the contracts accordingly. This should give the same behavior as the GenomeLocParser now.
-- No functional changes (my algorithm wouldn't work)
-- Major structural cleanup (returning more basic data structures that allow us to development new algorithm)
-- Unit tests for the efficiency of interval partitioning
After discussing this with Mark, it seems clear that the old version of the
VariantEval FunctionalClass stratification is preferable to this version.
By reverting, we maintain backwards compatibility with legacy output files
from the old GenomicAnnotator, and can add SnpEff support later without
breaking that backwards compatibility.
This reverts commit b44acd1abd9ab6eec37111a19fa797f9e2ca3326.
This is a temporary and hopefully short-lived solution. I've modified
the FunctionalClass stratification to stratify by effect impact as
defined by SnpEff annotations (high, moderate, and low impact) rather
than by the silent/missense/nonsense categories.
If we want to bring back the silent/missense/nonsense stratification,
we should probably take the approach of asking the SnpEff author
to add it as a feature to SnpEff rather than coding it ourselves,
since the whole point of moving to SnpEff was to outsource genomic
annotation.
-Rewrote SnpEff support in VariantAnnotator to support the latest SnpEff release (version 2.0.2)
-Removed support for SnpEff 1.9.6 (and associated tribble codec)
-Will refuse to parse SnpEff output files produced by unsupported versions (or without a version tag)
-Correctly matches ref/alt alleles before annotating a record, unlike the previous version
-Correctly handles indels (again, unlike the previous version
-- Cannot reproduce the very long waits reported by some users.
-- Fixed problem that exception might result in an undeleted file, which is now fixed with deleteOnExit()
All VariantAnnotator annotation classes may now have an (optional) initialize() method
that gets called by the VariantAnnotatorEngine ONCE before annotation starts.
As an example of how this can be used, the SnpEff annotation class will use the initialize()
method to check whether the SnpEff version number stored in the vcf header is a supported
version, and also to verify that its required RodBinding is present.
