NAME
bamcollate2 - collate reads in a SAM, BAM or CRAM file by name
SYNOPSIS
bamcollate2 [options]
DESCRIPTION
bamcollate2 reads a SAM, BAM or CRAM file from standard input, collates the contained reads/alignments by
name and writes the resulting data to standard output in BAM format.
The following key=value pairs can be given:
collate=<0|1|2|3>: Valid values are
3: collate read pairs and attach post ranks (line numbers of alignments in output file) to each read.
For pairs this add the prefix a_b_ to a pair when the first read of the pair appears in line a and
the second one in line b of the output file, e.g. the name HS5 is changed to 20_21_HS5 for both
ends if read 1 appears in line 20 and read 2 in line 21. For single end reads it add the prefix a_
to the name where a is the rank (line number) of the read in the output file. The pre rank (line
number in the input file) is attached to each read by putting it in the zz auxiliary field as an
eight byte number array similar to the funcionality of bamrank.
2: collate read pairs and attach ranks (line numbers of alignments in source file) to each read. For
pairs this add the prefix a_b_ to a pair when the first read of the pair appears in line a and the
second one in line b of the source file, e.g. the name HS5 is changed to 25_32_HS5 for both ends
if read 1 appears in line 25 and read 2 in line 32. For single end reads it add the prefix a_ to
the name where a is the rank (line number) of the read in the source file.
1: collate read pairs
0: do not collate, keep reads in the original order
filename=<stdin>: input file name (data is read from standard input if this option is not given)
inputformat=<bam>: input file format All versions of bamcollate2 come with support for the BAM input
format. If the program in addition is linked to the io_lib package, then the following options are valid:
bam: BAM (see http://samtools.sourceforge.net/SAM1.pdf)
sam: SAM (see http://samtools.sourceforge.net/SAM1.pdf)
cram: CRAM (see http://www.ebi.ac.uk/ena/about/cram_toolkit)
level=<-1|0|1|9|11>: set compression level of the output BAM file. Valid values are
-1: zlib/gzip default compression level
0: uncompressed
1: zlib/gzip level 1 (fast) compression
9: zlib/gzip level 9 (best) compression
If libmaus has been compiled with support for igzip (see https://software.intel.com/en-us/articles/igzip-
a-high-performance-deflate-compressor-with-optimizations-for-genomic-data) then an additional valid value
is
11: igzip compression
exclude=<SECONDARY>: Do not include reads in the output that have any of the given flags set. The flags
are given separated by commas. Valid flags are:
PAIRED:
read was paired in sequencing
PROPER_PAIR:
read has been mapped as part of a proper pair
UNMAP: read was not mapped
MUNMAP:
mate of read was not mapped
REVERSE:
read was mapped to the reverse strand
MREVERSE:
mate of read was mapped to the reverse strand
READ1: read was first read of a pair during sequencing
READ2: read was second read of a pair during sequencing
SECONDARY:
alignment is secondary, i.e. an alternative mapping to the primary alignment in the same file
QCFAIL:
read as marked as having failed quality control
DUP: read is marked as a duplicate of another read in the same file (see bammarkduplicates)
SUPPLEMENTARY:
read is marked as supplementary alignment
disablevalidation=<0>: Valid values are
0: run input file validation on alignments (this is the default)
1: do not check the validity of the input file (this may help for some broken input files, but it is
a security risk as it can lead to the execution of arbitrary code through a forged input file).
colhlog=<18> base two logarithm of the size of the hash table used for collation (the default value is 18
and should work reasonably well for most input files. Please see the biobambam paper at
arxiv.org/abs/1306.0836 for details).
colsbs=<128M> size of hash table overflow list in bytes (the default is 128MB and should work reasonably
well for most input files. Please see the biobambam paper at arxiv.org/abs/1306.0836 for details).
T=<bamcollate2_hostname_pid_time> file name of temporary file used for collation
ranges=<>: coordinate ranges selected from input. This option is only available for input files in BAM
and CRAM format which have a corresponding index file (.bai for BAM, .crai for CRAM) and if input is via
file (i.e. the filename argument is set). Valid ranges consist of either
whole reference sequence:
a whole reference sequence (e.g. "chr1")
half open interval on reference sequence:
an interval on a reference sequence half open on the right (e.g. "chr1:50000" which means
alignments overlapping chr1 from position 50000 to the end of chr1)
interval on reference sequence:
an interval on a reference sequence (e.g. "chr1:50000-60000" which means alignments overlapping
positions 50000 to 60000 on chr1)
For BAM input multiple ranges are separated by space characters (e.g. ranges="chr1:10000-20000
chr1:30000-40000"). CRAM input supports a single range only.
reference=: file name of the reference for CRAM input files. If this key is unset, then the CRAM file
header will be scanned for obtaining a reference file name.
md5=<0|1>: md5 checksum creation for output file. Valid values are
0: do not compute checksum. This is the default.
1: compute checksum. If the md5filename key is set, then the checksum is written to the given file.
If md5filename is unset, then no checksum will be computed.
md5filename file name for md5 checksum if md5=1.
index=<0|1>: compute BAM index for output file. Valid values are
0: do not compute BAM index. This is the default.
1: compute BAM index. If the indexfilename key is set, then the BAM index is written to the given
file. If indexfilename is unset, then no BAM index will be computed.
indexfilename file name for BAM index if index=1.
readgroups comma separated list of read group identifiers to be kept. If not given all records will be
kept. Read group filtering is only available if collate=0 and collate=1 (i.e. this key is ignored for
collate=2 and collate=3).
mapqthres mapping quality threshold. This option is only available for collate=1 (i.e. it is ignored for
collate=0 and collate>1). If this key is set, reads are kept if the mapping quality field is at least the
given value. For paired end reads it is sufficient for a read or its mate to have a mapping quality above
the threshold.
reset reduce alignments to an unmapped state (see bamreset). This key is only valid for collate=0,
collate=1 or collate=3. The default value is 0 for collate=0 and collate=1 and 1 for collate=3.
classes types of alignment lines to be kept. This key is only valid for collate=1. By default all
alignments are kept. The value for this key is a comma separated list consisting of a subset of the
following options:
F: keep first mates of complete pairs
F2: keep second mates of complete pairs
O: keep first mates of orphaned pairs (i.e. such that the other mate is not in the input file)
O2: keep second mates of orphaned pairs (i.e. such that the other mate is not in the input file)
S: keep single end reads
resetheadertext file name for replacement SAM header. By default the header of the input SAM/BAM/CRAM
file is used (and filtered in case of reset=1).
resetaux=<0|1>: remove auxiliary fields if resetaux=1. This key is only available for reset=1. If reset=1
then the default is to remove all aux fields.
auxfilter=<>: comma separated list of aux tags to be kept if reset=1 and resetaux=0. If the key is not
set then all tags are kept.
outputformat=<bam>: output file format. All versions of bamcollate2 come with support for the BAM output
format. If the program in addition is linked to the io_lib package, then the following options are valid:
bam: BAM (see http://samtools.sourceforge.net/SAM1.pdf)
sam: SAM (see http://samtools.sourceforge.net/SAM1.pdf)
cram: CRAM (see http://www.ebi.ac.uk/ena/about/cram_toolkit). This format is not advisable for data not
sorted by coordinate.
O=<[stdout]>: output filename, standard output if unset.
outputthreads=<[1]>: output helper threads, only valid for outputformat=bam.
verbose=<1>: Valid values are
1: print progress report on standard error
0: do not print progress report
replacereadgroupnames=<>: file name containing a list of read group mappings. Each line in the file
corresponds to one read group ID replacement and contains two columns separated by the tab symbol (ASCII
code 9). The first column contains the source identifier which will be replaced by the value of the
second column in the output file. This option is only valid for collate<2. By default no read group
identifier mapping is performed.
