👑 GFFUTILS-CLI_CREATE(1) 👑

okay bestie, so you know the manual page GFFUTILS-CLI_CREATE(1)? it lives in the User Commands section and it's literally all about making a database from your GFF/GTF file. no cap. let's get into it 💅

✨ NAME ✨

gffutils-cli_create — create a database 🗄️✨

🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

here's the whole vibe, the usage line, untouched, exactly how it drops:

usage: gffutils-cli create [-h] [-o OUTPUT] [-f] [-q] [-m MERGE]

[--disable-infer-genes]
       [--disable-infer-transcripts] filename

Create a database. that's it, that's the mission, that's the whole main character energy right there 🫶

🎀 positional arguments 🎀

  • filename — the GFF or GTF file you're feeding in. this is your raw material, your source of truth, your little annotation file that's about to get a glow-up ✨

💖 options 💖

  • -h, --help — show this help message and dip. classic. 💁♀️
  • -o, --output OUTPUT — the database you want to create. if you don't say anything, it just appends ".db" onto the end of the input filename (default: -) 🍓
  • -f, --force — overwrite a database that already exists. it's giving decisive. (default: False) 🔥
  • -q, --quiet — suppress the reporting of timing information while the database is being created. silence is golden, very demure. (default: False) 🤫
  • -m, --merge MERGE — the merge strategy used if if duplicate IDs are found. yes the manpage says "if if", we keep it, we don't touch it, it's iconic. (default: 'merge') 💜
  • --disable-infer-genes — disable the inferring of gene extents for GTF files. use this if your GTF file already has "gene" featuretypes, so like, it already knows, bestie. (default: False) 🧬
  • --disable-infer-transcripts — disable the inferring of transcript extents for GTF files. use this if your GTF file already has "transcript" featuretypes. again, she already knows. (default: False) 🦋
ngl, those last two are the "please stop guessing my vibes, i already told you" flags and honestly? valid 🙈

that's the whole page, every flag accounted for, nothing dropped, we ate and left no crumbs 👑✨
