chicViewpoint hangs indefinitely when reference file is a BED file with (non-unique) gene names in 4th column #880
Open
mtekman opened 7 months ago
Main command
version: hicexplorer==3.7.3 (micromamba install)
Problem
If the
-rp
parameter is a BED file, it hangs if the 4th column is not unique:e.g. A reference point bed file with these entries will hang indefinitely with 100% CPU for several days until killed.
e.g.2 A reference point bed file with these entries will run near instantly without problems:
(generated via
awk '{gmap[$4] = gmap[$4] + 1; print $0"-"gmap[$4];}' <original_rp.bed>
)I think a small bit of text that mentions this in the help text of the
--referencePoints
parameter would be enoughCheers!
