DESCRIPTION

       usage: gffutils-cli parents [-h] [-l LIMIT] [--exclude EXCLUDE]

       [--exclude-self]
              db [ids]

       Fetch parents from the database according to ID.

   positional arguments:
       db     Database  to  use.  If a GFF or GTF file is provided instead for this argument, a database will be
              created for you.  This can take some time (several minutes), so it's best to create one  ahead  of
              time.

       ids    Comma-separated  list  of  IDs.  These IDs, along with their parents, will be returned (subject to
              --limit and --exclude). If none provided, use all exons in the database (default: -)

   options:
       -h, --help
              show this help message and exit

       -l, --limit LIMIT
              Feature type (string), or level (integer). No parents below this level will be returned  (default:
              -)

       --exclude EXCLUDE
              Comma-separated list of featuretypes to filter out (like grep -v) (default: -)

       --exclude-self
              Use this to suppress reporting the IDs you've provided.  (default: False)
