# Variant Tools

A command line tool for the manipulation, annotation, and analysis of genetic variants
from next-generation sequencing studies.

# Installation

If you are using a conda environment, you can install variant tools with command

```
conda install variant_tools -c bioconda -c conda-forge
```
Option `-c conda-forge` is required to enforce the use of `conda-forge` version of dependencies (e.g. `boost-cpp`) over their counterpoarts in the base channel.

Otherwise, you can try to install it through `pip`

```
pip install variant_tools
```

You might need to install

* `libboost`
* `gsl`
* `numpy`
* `Cython`
* A C++ compiler such as `gcc`

and re-run the command if there is no binary (`wheel`) distribution for your platform.

Finally, you can checkout the latest version of variant tools from github, and install it with command

```
python setup.py install
```
with the aforementioned packages installed.
