Snoopy

Browser based quality control tool to expedite reviewing predicted variants in next generation sequencing files.

Snoopy is a browser-based quality control tool that allows the user to quickly visually review many batches of predicted variants from sequence files (BAM/CRAM). The steps of usage are:

  1. Construct a json file to list your sequence files (locally, HTTP/S, or SSH) and a set of variants sites
  2. Start snoopy from the command line
  3. In the browser load the json file
  4. Click 'variant', 'not variant', 'uncertain' at each predicted variant site
  5. Save the results which includes your decisions and a snapshot of each location

Downloads

Snoopy requires python (2 or 3) and pip. To install:

pip install snoopy
