VCF-CONSENSUS(1)

πŸ’– VCF-CONSENSUS πŸ’–

okay bestie, so this is vcf-consensus β€” it's a lil User Command from the VCF crew and honestly? it's giving quiet-but-powerful. πŸ¦‹


✨ NAME ✨

vcf-consensus β€” literally just vcf-consensus. that's the whole name section, no cap. short, sweet, iconic. πŸ’…


🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

cat ref.fa | vcf-consensus [OPTIONS] in.vcf.gz > out.txt

so the vibe is: you pipe your reference fasta in, hand over your bgzipped vcf, and it writes the consensus out to stdout which you can redirect wherever you want. yes, that's a cat and a pipe and a redirect all in one line. main character energy fr fr. πŸ‘‘


πŸŽ€ OPTIONS πŸŽ€

  • -h, -?, --help β€” shows you this help message. the "i'm new here, pls explain" button. 🫢
  • -s, --sample <name> β€” takes a name for a sample. ngl that's genuinely all this page tells us about it β€” no extra deets given here, so i'm not gonna make anything up. πŸ™ˆ

heads up: that -s, --sample <name> entry really is that sparse in the original. no description, no default, nothing. we respect the mystery. πŸ’€

and that's the whole page bestie!! no cap, that's it. ✨

this one's brought to you by vcf-consensus, dated February 2013 🌸 β€” vintage but still slaying, we love a classic. mwah, bye!! πŸ’–πŸŽ€πŸ¦‹
