bamtagconversion - convert old tags to new ones
bamtagconversion [options]
bamtagconversion converts the old MS, MT and MC tags into the
corresponding ms, mt and mc tags. As there is an official MC:Z tag in the SAM
spec,
bamtagconversion only converts MC:i tags.
bamtagconversion
takes a BAM file as an input and outputs a BAM file with the changes made.
The following key=value pairs can be given:
level=<-1|0|1|9|11>: set compression level of the output BAM file.
Valid values are
- -1:
- zlib/gzip default compression level.
- 0:
- uncompressed.
- 1:
- zlib/gzip level 1 (fast) compression.
- 9:
- zlib/gzip level 9 (best) compression.
If libmaus has been compiled with support for igzip (see
https://software.intel.com/en-us/articles/igzip-a-high-performance-deflate-compressor-with-optimizations-for-genomic-data)
then an additional valid value is
- 11:
- igzip compression.
verbose=<0|1>: Valid values are
- 0:
- do not print progress report (default).
- 1:
- print progress report to standard error.
md5=<0|1>: md5 checksum creation for output file. This option can
only be given if outputformat=bam. Then valid values are
- 0:
- do not compute checksum. This is the default.
- 1:
- compute checksum. If the md5filename key is set, then the
checksum is written to the given file. If md5filename is unset, then no
checksum will be computed.
md5filename file name for md5 checksum if md5=1.
outputthreads=<[1]>: output helper threads.
