NAME
bambisect - find reduced size BAM file on which a program fails
SYNOPSIS
bambisect [options] in.bam prog
DESCRIPTION
bambisect runs prog on in.bam. If this fails (signified by a non-zero return code), then it
systematically reduces the number of records by extracting intervals of records from in.bam and rerunning
prog on such intervals until it finds an interval on which prog fails but succeeeds on any proper sub
interval.
The following key=value pairs can be given:
level=<-1|0|1|9>: set compression level used when compressing BAM. Valid values are values are
-1: zlib/gzip default compression level
0: uncompressed
1: zlib/gzip level 1 (fast) compression
9: zlib/gzip level 9 (best) compression
verbose=<1>: Valid values are
1: print progress report on standard error
0: do not print progress report
tmpfile=<filename>: prefix for temporary files. By default the temporary files are created in the current
directory
