README

VCF.js

VCF.js is a library that can remotely load and parse VCF files, or JSON representations of them. It is used to manipulate and analyse genotype calls.

Documentation

Documentation can be found in DOCUMENTATION.md.

Using it

Example usage in test/ directory, just start a server in the root directory (e.g. python -m SimpleHTTPServer) and open index.html, then open a dev console and look at the data object, for example.

TODO

1. Make sure this works seamlessly client-side and in the browser, and plays well with npm.
2. Define schema for loading JSON VCF records.
3. Enable adding to/streaming VCF records from the server to the vcf object.
4. Make a VCF writer.
