GitHub - fastlmm/bed-reader: A library for easy, fast, and efficient reading & writing of PLINK Bed files (original) (raw)
Read and write the PLINK BED format, simply and efficiently.
This is the Python README. For Rust, see README-rust.md.
Highlights
- Fast multi-threaded Rust engine.
- Supports all Python indexing methods. Slice data by individuals (samples) and/or SNPs (variants).
- Used by PySnpTools, FaST-LMM, and PyStatGen.
- Supports PLINK 1.9.
- Read data locally or from the cloud, efficiently and directly.
Install
Full version: With all optional dependencies:
pip install bed-reader[samples,sparse]
Minimal version: Depends only on numpy
:
Usage
Read genomic data from a .bed file.
import numpy as np from bed_reader import open_bed, sample_file
file_name = sample_file("small.bed") bed = open_bed(file_name) val = bed.read() print(val) [[ 1. 0. nan 0.] [ 2. 0. nan 2.] [ 0. 1. 2. 0.]] del bed
Read every second individual and SNPs (variants) from 20 to 30.
file_name2 = sample_file("some_missing.bed") bed2 = open_bed(file_name2) val2 = bed2.read(index=np.s_[::2,20:30]) print(val2.shape) (50, 10) del bed2
List the first 5 individual (sample) ids, the first 5 SNP (variant) ids, and every unique chromosome. Then, read every genomic value in chromosome 5.
with open_bed(file_name2) as bed3: ... print(bed3.iid[:5]) ... print(bed3.sid[:5]) ... print(np.unique(bed3.chromosome)) ... val3 = bed3.read(index=np.s_[:,bed3.chromosome=='5']) ... print(val3.shape) ['iid_0' 'iid_1' 'iid_2' 'iid_3' 'iid_4'] ['sid_0' 'sid_1' 'sid_2' 'sid_3' 'sid_4'] ['1' '10' '11' '12' '13' '14' '15' '16' '17' '18' '19' '2' '20' '21' '22' '3' '4' '5' '6' '7' '8' '9'] (100, 6)
From the cloud: open a file and read data for one SNP (variant) at index position 2.
with open_bed("https://raw.githubusercontent.com/fastlmm/bed-sample-files/main/small.bed") as bed: ... val = bed.read(index=np.s_[:,2], dtype="float64") ... print(val) [[nan] [nan] [ 2.]]
