SimPhy compress dataset

This program allows to compress the number of files and file sizes of a SimPhy run. Concatenating all loci sequences into a single multiple sequence alignment file for all the different FASTA outputs (sequences with gaps, or sequences without gaps (*_TRUE.fasta)). They are concatenated with N sequences (as long as desired - -n/--nsize parameter). Gene tree files are shrunked into a sinlge gzipped tab-separated file with 2 columns:

filename           tree

Where, filename is the basename of the gene tree file (e.g. g_trees00001.tree -> g_treees00001) and tree corresponds to the content of such file.

Assumptions

• We are working under a SimPhy simulation. Follwing its hierarchical folder structure and sequence labeling.

To know more about the simulation pipeline scenario go to SimPhy's repository, and/or check:

• Mallo D, de Oliveira Martins L, Posada D (2016) SimPhy: Phylogenomic Simulation of Gene, Locus and Species Trees. Syst. Biol. 65(2) 334-344. doi: http://dx.doi.org/10.1093/sysbio/syv082

Input

• SimPhy folder path
• prefix of the existing FASTA files
• (optional) length of the N sequence that will be used to separate the sequences when concatenated

Output

• Modifications are made INPLACE. Meaning, files are concatenated and gzipped in the same SimPhy folder. And so, the other files are removed.

Install

• Clone this repository

git clone git@github.com:merlyescalona/simphycompress.git

• Chance your current directory to the downloaded folder:

cd simphycompress

• Install:

python setup.py install --user

Usage

Required arguments:

• -s <path>, --simphy-path <path>: Path of the SimPhy folder.
• -ip <input_prefix>, --input-prefix <input_prefix>: Prefix of the FASTA filenames.

Optional arguments:

• -n <N_seq_size>, --nsize <N_seq_size>: Number of N's that will be introduced to separate the sequences selected. If the parameter is not set, the output file per replicate will be a multiple alignment sequence file, otherwise, the output will be a single sequence file per replicate consisting of a concatenation of the reference sequences selected separated with as many N's as set for this parameter.
• -l <log_level>, --log <log_level>: Specified level of log that will be shown through the standard output. Entire log will be stored in a separate file.
  • Values:['DEBUG', 'INFO', 'WARNING', 'ERROR'].
  • Default: 'INFO'.

Information arguments:

• -v, --version: Show program's version number and exit
• -h, --help: Show this help message and exit
