Cutevariant

A standalone and free application to explore genetics variations from VCF file

Published in Bioinformatics Advanced
Documentation available on cutevariant.labsquare.org

Test codecov

Cutevariant is a cross-plateform application dedicated to maniupulate and filter variation from annotated VCF file. When you create a project, data are imported into an sqlite database that cutevariant queries according your needs. Presently, SnpEff and VEP annotations are supported. Once your project is created, you can query variant using different gui controller or directly using the VQL language. This Domain Specific Language is specially designed for cutevariant and try to keep the same syntax than SQL for an easy use.

Installation

Windows

Standalone binary are available for windows:

Linux

If you run Linux, then you can either use PyPI or install from source. But before you proceed to installation, make sure that running this command:

sqlite3 --version

returns at least 3.32. If not, run:

# Uninstall previous versions of sqlite3 (to avoid conflicts)
sudo apt remove sqlite3
# Download latest sqlite version
wget https://www.sqlite.org/2022/sqlite-autoconf-3380500.tar.gz
# Extract it
tar -xvf sqlite-autoconf-3380500.tar.gz
cd sqlite-autoconf-3380500
./configure
# Run make to build
make
# Run make install, this will put the shared object in /usr/local/lib
sudo make install
# Then add LD_LIBRARY_PATH to your bash profile (either ~/.zshrc, ~/.bashrc, or whatever is your favorite)
echo "export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/local/lib" >> ~/.zshrc
# Source your shell profile so you don't have to restart it
source ~/.zshrc
#Now just to be sure:
sqlite3 --version
# You should see 3.38 now. If not, this means that the installation went wrong.
# That's it! Now you can install cutevariant, either from PyPI or directly from source

Cutevariant is avaible from Pypi :

pip install cutevariant # install
python -m cutevariant   # run
