alabaster.vcf

Save and Load Variant Data to/from File

Bioconductor version: 3.23 · Package version: 1.12.0

Save variant calling SummarizedExperiment to file and load them back as VCF objects. This is a more portable alternative to serialization of such objects into RDS files. Each artifact is associated with metadata for further interpretation; downstream applications can enrich this metadata with context-specific properties.

Installation

if (!require("BiocManager", quietly = TRUE))
    install.packages("BiocManager")

BiocManager::install("alabaster.vcf")
