# goleft

[![Build Status](https://travis-ci.org/brentp/goleft.svg)](https://travis-ci.org/brentp/goleft)

goleft is a collection of bioinformatics tools written in

[go](https://github.com/golang/go) distributed together

as a single binary under a liberal (MIT) license.

Running the binary `goleft` will give a list of subcommands

with a short description. Running any subcommand without

arguments will give a full help for that command.

# Installation

The easiest way to install goleft is to download the latest binary from

the [releases](https://github.com/brentp/goleft/releases) and make sure to chmod +x the resulting binary.

If you are using [go](https://github.com/golang/go), you can build from source with:

```

go get -u github.com/brentp/goleft/...

go install github.com/brentp/goleft/cmd/goleft

```

`goleft` is also available in [bioconda](https://bioconda.github.io)

# Commands

+ [covstats](https://github.com/brentp/goleft/tree/master/covstats#covstats)   : estimate coverage and insert-size statistics on bams by sampling

+ [depth](https://github.com/brentp/goleft/tree/master/depth#depth)    : parallelize calls to samtools in user-defined windows

+ depthwed : matricize output from depth to n-sites * n-samples

+ [indexcov](https://github.com/brentp/goleft/tree/master/indexcov#indexcov) : quick coverage estimate using only the bam index

+ [indexsplit](https://github.com/brentp/goleft/tree/master/indexsplit#indexsplit) : generate regions of even data across a cohort (for parallelization)

+ [samplename](https://github.com/brentp/goleft/tree/master/samplename#samplename): report samplename(s) from a bam's SM tag
