Tutorial

Dependencies

Installation

You do not need to install anything to try the interactive visualization of AliTV. Just navigate to the demo page to try all the features on an example dataset (seven chloroplast genomes). You can also import your own json files on that page. When loading your own data into AliTV it is not transferred to a server but remains on your local machine.

If you want to generate the json file for your genomes you can use the command line script alitv.pl as follows:

# Install perl dependencies e.g. with cpan, cpanm or package manager (example: apt)
# apt install libyaml-perl libhash-merge-perl bioperl
git clone --recursive https://github.com/AliTVTeam/AliTV

Usage

AliTV.pl can be called directly on your input files or in advanced mode supplying a yaml configuration file. The output is a json object as required by the visualization part of AliTV (see details) in the file <project>.json (project can be set via command line parameter, otherwise a random name is generated). For more details about alitv.pl please see the documentation.

Simple mode: Just supply your files and redirect to json file

cd AliTV-perl-interface
perl bin/alitv.pl --project simple data/chloroset/*.fasta

Advanced mode: Supply a config yaml file

cd AliTV-perl-interface
perl bin/alitv.pl --project advanced data/chloroset/input.yml

Input

Input for the simple mode should be in one of the Bioperl supported formats (currently 42 different). Annotation files can be supplied in tsv format (have to be specified in the yml file, example file for ndh genes). Documentation for the yaml file is soon to be added for now consult this example file for usage information.

Output

By default, AliTV generates a configuration file (yaml format) if none is supplied, a log file and a json string on standard out. The json can then be visualized with AliTV on the demo page or locally in d3/AliTV.html. The format of the json file is specified in the [source documentation](https://alitvteam.github.io/AliTV/d3/doc/AliTV.html) relevant members are “conf”, “data”, and “filters”.
