Include sample filters using pedigree info when querying variants #127

Open jtarraga opened 7 years ago

jtarraga commented 7 years ago

To enhance variant queries, users should be able to use pedigree information or user-defined attributes. It should be integrated in the query command line, e.g., using the parameter --sample-filter

Examples: --sample-filter sex==MALE --sample-filter age>60;sex==FEMALE

Both pedigree information and user-defined attributes are stored in the variant metadata file.
