## Installation

### Dependencies

* [Python >=3.6.x](https://www.python.org/)
* [BioPython](http://biopython.org/)
* [isPcr v33](http://hgwdev.cse.ucsc.edu/~kent/src/)
* [NCBI BLAST+ >= 2.4](https://blast.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/Blast.cgi?PAGE_TYPE=BlastDocs&DOC_TYPE=Download)
* [mlst](https://github.com/tseemann/mlst)

The simplest way to install dependencies is to use the Brew (MacOS) or
Linuxbrew (Linux) packaging system. 

```
$ brew tap brewsci/bio
$ brew install ispcr blast mlst
```

### Installing

The easiest way of installing `meningotype` is using `pip`:
```
$ pip install --user git+https://github.com/MDU-PHL/meningotype.git
```

The `--user` option will install the package locally, rather than in the global `python` directory. 

Thus, by default, this will install the package in `$HOME/.local/`, and the executable in `$HOME/.local/bin/`. 
To install the executable in a custom location (e.g., `$HOME/bin`), use the following:
```
$ pip install --install-option="--install-scripts=$HOME/bin" --user git+https://github.com/MDU-PHL/meningotype.git
```

To upgrade to a newer version: 
```
$ pip install --upgrade --install-option="--install-scripts=$HOME/bin" --user git+https://github.com/MDU-PHL/meningotype.git
```

### Testing

Once installed, you can run the following to ensure `meningotype` is successfully working:

    $ meningotype.py --test

If everything works, you will see the following:

```
$ meningotype.py --test
Running meningotype.py on test examples ... 
$ meningotype.py A.fna B.fna C.fna W.fna X.fna Y.fna
SAMPLE_ID	SEROGROUP	ctrA	MLST	PorA	FetA	PorB	fHbp	NHBA	NadA	BAST

```

or to check finetyping:

```
$ meningotype.py --test --finetype
Running meningotype.py on test examples ... 
$ meningotype.py A.fna B.fna C.fna W.fna X.fna Y.fna

meningotype/test/Y.fna	Y	ctrA	-	5-2,10-1	F4-1	-	-	-	-	-
```

or to check finetyping and Bexsero antigen sequence typing:

```
$ meningotype.py --test --all

$ meningotype.py A.fna B.fna C.fna W.fna X.fna Y.fna

## Usage

```
$ meningotype.py -h
usage: 
  meningotype.py [OPTIONS] <fasta1> <fasta2> <fasta3> ... <fastaN>

See also http://www.neisseria.org/nm/typing/

positional arguments:
  FASTA       input FASTA files eg. fasta1, fasta2, fasta3 ... fastaN

optional arguments:
  -h, --help  show this help message and exit
  --finetype  perform porA and fetA fine typing (default=off)
  --porB      perform porB sequence typing (NEIS2020) (default=off)

  --all       perform MLST, porA, fetA, porB, BAST typing (default=off)
  --db DB     specify custom directory containing allele databases for porA/fetA typing
              directory must contain database files: "FetA_VR.fas", "PorA_VR1.fas", "PorA_VR2.fas"
              for Bexsero typing: "fHbp_peptide.fas", "NHBA_peptide.fas", "NadA_peptide.fas", "BASTalleles.txt"
  --printseq  save porA/fetA or BAST allele sequences to file (default=off)
  --updatedb  update allele database from <pubmlst.org>
  --test      run test example
  --version   show program's version number and exit
```

## Examples

To perform *in silico* serotyping on FASTA files:

	$ meningotype <fasta1> <fasta2> <fasta3> ... <fastaN>`

The serotypes are printed in tab-separated format to `stdout`.
To save results to a tab-separated text file, redirect `stdout`:

	$ meningotype <fasta1> <fasta2> <fasta3> ... <fastaN>  > results.txt

To perform *in silico* serotyping AND finetyping of the porA and fetA genes:

	$ meningotype --finetype <fasta1> <fasta2> <fasta3> ... <fastaN>

To save finetyping sequences of the alleles to a file (eg. for uploading 
"new" sequences to [http://pubmlst.org/neisseria/](http://pubmlst.org/neisseria/)):

	$ meningotype --finetype --printseq <fasta1> <fasta2> <fasta3> ... <fastaN>

These are placed into a folder called `printseq` in the current directory.


## Updating the allele databases

To update the allele databases from http://pubmlst.org/neisseria/

	$ meningotype.py --updatedb

A copy of the original database is saved to `*.old` just in case, 
but is overwritten with each subsequent `--updatedb`.
*Ensure you back up your old databases if you wish to keep them.*
