gt-gff3 (1)

gt gff3 [option ...] [GFF3_file ...]

-sort [yes|no]

sort the GFF3 features (memory consumption is proportional to the input file size(s)) (default: no)

-tidy [yes|no]

try to tidy the GFF3 files up during parsing (default: no)

-retainids [yes|no]

when available, use the original IDs provided in the source file (memory consumption is proportional to the input file size(s)) (default: no)

-checkids [yes|no]

make sure the ID attributes are unique within the scope of each GFF3_file, as required by GFF3 specification (memory consumption is proportional to the input file size(s)) (default: no)

-addids [yes|no]

add missing "##sequence-region" lines automatically (default: yes)

-fixregionboundaries [yes|no]

automatically adjust "##sequence-region" lines to contain all their features (memory consumption is proportional to the input file size(s)) (default: no)

-addintrons [yes|no]

add intron features between existing exon features (default: no)

-offset [value]

transform all features by the given offset

-offsetfile [filename]

transform all features by the offsets given in file (default: undefined)

-setsource [string]

set the source value (2nd column) of each feature (default: undefined)

-typecheck [string]

check GFF3 types against "id" and "name" tags in given OBO file and validate parent (part-of) relationships. If no argument is given, the sofa.obo file from the gtdata/obo_files directory is used. If an argument is given, it is used as an OBO filename. In the case that such a file does not exist .obo is added to the argument and loading the resulting filename from the gtdata/obo_files directory is attempted. (default: undefined)

-xrfcheck [string]

check Dbxref and Ontology_term attributes for correct syntax according to a abbreviation definition file. If no argument is given, the GO.xrf_abbs file from the gtdata/xrf_abbr directory is used. If an argument is given, it is used as an specific filename for an abbreviation file. In the case that such a file does not exist, .xrf_abbr is added to the argument and loading the resulting filename from the gtdata/xrf_abbr directory is attempted. (default: undefined)

-show [yes|no]

show GFF3 output (default: yes)

-v [yes|no]

be verbose (default: no)

-width [value]

set output width for FASTA sequence printing (0 disables formatting) (default: 0)

-o [filename]

redirect output to specified file (default: undefined)

-gzip [yes|no]

write gzip compressed output file (default: no)

-bzip2 [yes|no]

write bzip2 compressed output file (default: no)

-force [yes|no]

force writing to output file (default: no)

-help

display help and exit

-version

display version information and exit

File format for option -offsetfile:

The file supplied to option -offsetfile defines a mapping table named “offsets”. It maps the sequence-region entries given in the GFF3_file to offsets. It can be defined as follows:

offsets = {
  chr1  = 1000,
  chr2  = 500
}

When this example is used, all features with seqid “chr1” will be offset by 1000 and all features with seqid “chr2” by 500.

If -offsetfile is used, offsets for all sequence-regions contained in the given GFF3 files must be defined.
