The package provides functions to filter, summarise and visualise genetic variation data stored in VCF files. Functionalities are also demonstrated in a Shiny web-application.
The VCF file format encodes a plethora of useful information,
including optional predictions using the
Ensembl Variant Effect Predictor (VEP)
that can be parsed using expert packages such as VariantAnnotation
and formatted into VCF objects.
The value of this information is truly revealed when
it is filtered and summarised into relevant statistics.
This package offers methods:
- to subset and summarise
VCFobjects including Ensembl VEP predictions, - to explore genetic variants,
- and to report various summary statistics.

Although nothing offers more flexibility than the command line interface, a Shiny web-application, the Shiny Variant Explorer (tSVE), offers a GUI to get familiar with the major functionalities of the package.
Unit tests and coverage implemented using the testthat package (CRAN).
Coverage excludes files:
- AllClasses.R (Not executed at runtime)
- tSVE.R (Requires interactive session)
