insilicoSV generates synthetic diploid genome sequences, given a reference genome and a configuration file.
It supports the following functionality:
- 19 types of structural variants (simple and complex), indels, and SNPs
- a grammar to define custom structural rearrangement signatures
- random, context-aware (e.g., in repeat regions), or fixed-mode genome placement
Prerequisite: Python 3.8 and up - Install
Installation using pip:
$ pip install insilicosv
The recommended workflow for running insilicoSV is as follows:
- Create a new directory
- Populate a simulation config file and place it in the directory
- Run insilicoSV providing the config file as input:
insilicosv <config_yml>
- Results will be produced in this directory
The config file syntax is detailed in the Input guidelines section of the documentation.
