gdsfmt: R Interface to CoreArray Genomic Data Structure (GDS) files

GNU Lesser General Public License, LGPL-3

Features

This package provides a high-level R interface to CoreArray Genomic Data Structure (GDS) data files, which are portable across platforms with hierarchical structure to store multiple scalable array-oriented data sets with metadata information. It is suited for large-scale datasets, especially for data which are much larger than the available random-access memory. The gdsfmt package offers the efficient operations specifically designed for integers of less than 8 bits, since a diploid genotype, like single-nucleotide polymorphism (SNP), usually occupies fewer bits than a byte. Data compression and decompression are available with relatively efficient random access. It is also allowed to read a GDS file in parallel with multiple R processes supported by the package parallel.

Installation

• Bioconductor repository:

if (!requireNamespace("BiocManager", quietly=TRUE))
    install.packages("BiocManager")
BiocManager::install("gdsfmt")

• Development version from Github (for developers/testers only):

library("devtools")
install_github("zhengxwen/gdsfmt")

The install_github() approach requires that you build from source, i.e. make and compilers must be installed on your system -- see the R FAQ for your operating system; you may also need to install dependencies manually.

viewgds

viewgds is a shell script written in R (viewgds.R), to view the contents of a GDS file. The R packages gdsfmt, getopt and optparse should be installed before running viewgds, and the package crayon is optional.

Usage: viewgds [options] file

Installation with command line,

curl -L https://raw.githubusercontent.com/zhengxwen/Documents/master/Program/viewgds.R > viewgds
chmod +x viewgds

## Or
wget -qO- --no-check-certificate https://raw.githubusercontent.com/zhengxwen/Documents/master/Program/viewgds.R > viewgds
chmod +x viewgds

diffgds

diffgds is a shell script written in R (diffgds.R), to compare two files GDS files. The R packages gdsfmt, getopt and optparse should be installed before running diffgds.

Usage: diffgds [options] file1 file2

Installation with command line,

curl -L https://raw.githubusercontent.com/zhengxwen/Documents/master/Program/diffgds.R > diffgds
chmod +x diffgds

## Or
wget -qO- --no-check-certificate https://raw.githubusercontent.com/zhengxwen/Documents/master/Program/diffgds.R > diffgds
chmod +x diffgds

Examples

library(gdsfmt)

# create a GDS file
f <- createfn.gds("test.gds")

add.gdsn(f, "int", val=1:10000)
add.gdsn(f, "double", val=seq(1, 1000, 0.4))
add.gdsn(f, "character", val=c("int", "double", "logical", "factor"))
add.gdsn(f, "logical", val=rep(c(TRUE, FALSE, NA), 50))
add.gdsn(f, "factor", val=as.factor(c(NA, "AA", "CC")))
add.gdsn(f, "bit2", val=sample(0:3, 1000, replace=TRUE), storage="bit2")

# list and data.frame
add.gdsn(f, "list", val=list(X=1:10, Y=seq(1, 10, 0.25)))
add.gdsn(f, "data.frame", val=data.frame(X=1:19, Y=seq(1, 10, 0.5)))

folder <- addfolder.gdsn(f, "folder")
add.gdsn(folder, "int", val=1:1000)
add.gdsn(folder, "double", val=seq(1, 100, 0.4))

# show the contents
f

# close the GDS file
closefn.gds(f)
