# vcfstats - powerful statistics for VCF files

[![Pypi][1]][2] [![Github][3]][4] [![PythonVers][5]][2] [![docs][6]][13] ![github action][7] [![Codacy][9]][10] [![Codacy coverage][11]][10]

[Documentation][13] | [CHANGELOG][12]

## Motivation

There are a couple of tools that can plot some statistics of VCF files, including [`bcftools`][14] and [`jvarkit`][15]. However, none of them could:

1. plot specific metrics
2. customize the plots
3. focus on variants with certain filters

R package [`vcfR`][19] can do some of the above. However, it has to load entire VCF into memory, which is not friendly to large VCF files.

## Installation

```shell
pip install -U vcfstats
```

Or run with docker:

```shell
docker run \
-w /vcfstats/workdir \
-v $(pwd):/vcfstats/workdir \
--rm justold/vcfstats:latest \
vcfstats \
--vcf myfile.vcf \
-o outputs \
--formula 'COUNT(1) ~ CONTIG' \
--title 'Number of variants on each chromosome'
```

## Gallery

### Number of variants on each chromosome

```shell
vcfstats --vcf examples/sample.vcf \
--outdir examples/ \
--formula 'COUNT(1) ~ CONTIG' \
--title 'Number of variants on each chromosome' \
--config examples/config.toml
```

#### Changing labels and ticks

`vcfstats` uses [`plotnine`][17] for plotting, read more about it on how to specify `--ggs` to modify the plots.

```shell
vcfstats --vcf examples/sample.vcf \
--outdir examples/ \
--formula 'COUNT(1) ~ CONTIG' \
--title 'Number of variants on each chromosome (modified)' \
--config examples/config.toml \
--ggs 'scale_x_discrete(name ="Chromosome", \
limits=["1","2","3","4","5","6","7","8","9","10","X"]); \
ylab("# Variants")'
```

#### Number of variants on first 5 chromosome

```shell
vcfstats --vcf examples/sample.vcf \
--outdir examples/ \
--formula 'COUNT(1) ~ CONTIG[1,2,3,4,5]' \
--title 'Number of variants on each chromosome (first 5)' \
--config examples/config.toml
# or
vcfstats --vcf examples/sample.vcf \
--outdir examples/ \
--formula 'COUNT(1) ~ CONTIG[1-5]' \
--title 'Number of variants on each chromosome (first 5)' \
--config examples/config.toml
# or
# require vcf file to be tabix-indexed.
vcfstats --vcf examples/sample.vcf \
--outdir examples/ \
--formula 'COUNT(1) ~ CONTIG' \
--title 'Number of variants on each chromosome (first 5)' \
--config examples/config.toml -r 1 2 3 4 5
```

### Number of substitutions of SNPs

```shell
vcfstats --vcf examples/sample.vcf \
--outdir examples/ \
--formula 'COUNT(1, VARTYPE[snp]) ~ SUBST[A>T,A>G,A>C,T>A,T>G,T>C,G>A,G>T,G>C,C>A,C>T,C>G]' \
--title 'Number of substitutions of SNPs' \
--config examples/config.toml
```

#### Only with SNPs PASS all filters

```shell
vcfstats --vcf examples/sample.vcf \
--outdir examples/ \
--formula 'COUNT(1, VARTYPE[snp]) ~ SUBST[A>T,A>G,A>C,T>A,T>G,T>C,G>A,G>T,G>C,C>A,C>T,C>G]' \
--title 'Number of substitutions of SNPs (passed)' \
--config examples/config.toml \
--passed
```

### Alternative allele frequency on each chromosome

```shell
# using a dark theme
vcfstats --vcf examples/sample.vcf \
--outdir examples/ \
--formula 'AAF ~ CONTIG' \
--title 'Allele frequency on each chromosome' \
--config examples/config.toml --ggs 'theme_dark()'
```

![Allele frequency on each chromosome](examples/allele-frequency-on-each-chromosome.violin.png)

#### Using boxplot

```shell
vcfstats --vcf examples/sample.vcf \
--outdir examples/ \
--formula 'AAF ~ CONTIG' \
--title 'Allele frequency on each chromosome (boxplot)' \
--config examples/config.toml \
--figtype boxplot
```

![Allele frequency on each chromosome](examples/allele-frequency-on-each-chromosome-boxplot.boxplot.png)

#### Using density plot/histogram to investigate the distribution:

You can plot the distribution, using density plot or histogram

```shell
vcfstats --vcf examples/sample.vcf \
--outdir examples/ \
--formula 'AAF ~ CONTIG[1,2]' \
--title 'Allele frequency on chromosome 1,2' \
--config examples/config.toml \
--figtype density
```

### Overall distribution of allele frequency

```shell
vcfstats --vcf examples/sample.vcf \
--outdir examples/ \
--formula 'AAF ~ 1' \
--title 'Overall allele frequency distribution' \
--config examples/config.toml
```

![Overall allele frequency distribution](examples/overall-allele-frequency-distribution.histogram.png)

#### Excluding some low/high frequency variants

```shell
vcfstats --vcf examples/sample.vcf \
--outdir examples/ \
--formula 'AAF[0.05, 0.95] ~ 1' \
--title 'Overall allele frequency distribution (0.05-0.95)' \
--config examples/config.toml
```

### Counting types of variants on each chromosome

```shell
vcfstats --vcf examples/sample.vcf \
--outdir examples/ \
--formula 'COUNT(1, group=VARTYPE) ~ CHROM' \
# or simply
# --formula 'VARTYPE ~ CHROM' \
--title 'Types of variants on each chromosome' \
--config examples/config.toml
```

#### Using bar chart if there is only one chromosome

```shell
vcfstats --vcf examples/sample.vcf \
--outdir examples/ \
--formula 'COUNT(1, group=VARTYPE) ~ CHROM[1]' \
# or simply
# --formula 'VARTYPE ~ CHROM[1]' \
--title 'Types of variants on chromosome 1' \
--config examples/config.toml \
--figtype pie
```

--outdir examples/ \
# or simply
# --formula 'VARTYPE ~ 1' \
--formula 'COUNT(1, group=VARTYPE) ~ 1' \
