io-wig-read: Read a WIG file
In plyranges: A fluent interface for manipulating GenomicRanges

Description Usage Arguments Value See Also Examples

This is a lightweight wrapper to the import family of functions defined in rtracklayer.

1	read_wig(file, genome_info = NULL, overlap_ranges = NULL)

`file`	A path to a file or a connection.
`genome_info`	An optional character string or a Ranges object that contains information about the genome build. For example the USSC identifier "hg19" will add build information to the returned GRanges.
`overlap_ranges`	An optional Ranges object. Only the intervals in the file that overlap the Ranges will be returned.

A GRanges object

rtracklayer::WIGFile()

test_path <- system.file("tests", package = "rtracklayer")
test_wig <- file.path(test_path, "step.wig")
gr <- read_wig(test_wig)
gr
gr <- read_wig(test_wig, genome_info = "hg19")
