Example GFF files about clinker HOT 4 CLOSED

Would you be able to upload a couple of files you are having issues with? I've tested mostly with GFFs downloaded from NCBI, but files generated by Augustus should also work.

from clinker.

Here is the output. First I use the gff that comes straight out of Augustus. It complains about

ben@iMac-van-iMac locus_5 % /Users/ben/Library/Python/3.8/bin/clinker -p gff.html *.gff [13:35:11] INFO - Starting clinker [13:35:11] INFO - Parsing GenBank files: ['locus5_A1163.gff', 'locus5_Af293.gff', 'locus5_p20.gff', 'locus5_p21.gff'] Traceback (most recent call last): File "/Users/ben/Library/Python/3.8/bin/clinker", line 10, in <module> sys.exit(main()) File "/Users/ben/Library/Python/3.8/lib/python/site-packages/clinker/main.py", line 208, in main clinker( File "/Users/ben/Library/Python/3.8/lib/python/site-packages/clinker/main.py", line 71, in clinker clusters = parse_files(paths) File "/Users/ben/Library/Python/3.8/lib/python/site-packages/clinker/classes.py", line 200, in parse_files cluster = parse_gff(path) File "/Users/ben/Library/Python/3.8/lib/python/site-packages/clinker/classes.py", line 92, in parse_gff seqid = feature.attributes["ID"][0] File "/Users/ben/Library/Python/3.8/lib/python/site-packages/gffutils/attributes.py", line 63, in __getitem__ v = self._d[k] KeyError: 'ID'

Then I try with using the --gff3=on option, and get a similar error message about uid

ben@iMac-van-iMac locus_5 % /Users/ben/Library/Python/3.8/bin/clinker -p gff.html *.gff3 [13:36:14] INFO - Starting clinker [13:36:14] INFO - Parsing GenBank files: ['locus5_A1163.gff3', 'locus5_Af293.gff3', 'locus5_p20.gff3', 'locus5_p21.gff3'] /Users/ben/Library/Python/3.8/lib/python/site-packages/Bio/Seq.py:2334: BiopythonWarning: Partial codon, len(sequence) not a multiple of three.

I can get clinker to work, using the gff2gbSmall.pl script from the Augustus distribution, but the output does not recognize that they are coming from the same DNA strand, and things they are all separate contigs.

I have attached the .gff files, gff3, gb and fast files if that helps.

Thanks for the files, think I've narrowed down to the issue.

By default, Augustus produces GTF files, which is the source of the first error (see daler/gffutils#65). In each row, the parser used by clinker expects an 'ID' key/value pair, which that file does not have. Perhaps in the future I'll try to add a fallback to try and catch this.

Using the -gff3 option like you did fixes that, but then you hit a clinker bug, where gene coordinates were read in incorrectly from GFF files. I've fixed that in #44 which should land in the next release.

Using your GFF3 files:

Thanks, very excited to use this!
