PICARD MERGEVCFS

Merge vcf files using picard tools.

Example

This wrapper can be used in the following way:

rule merge_vcfs:
    input:
        vcfs=["snvs.chr1.vcf", "snvs.chr2.vcf"]
    output:
        "snvs.vcf"
    log:
        "logs/picard/mergevcfs.log"
    params:
        extra=""
    # optional specification of memory usage of the JVM that snakemake will respect with global
    # resource restrictions (https://snakemake.readthedocs.io/en/latest/snakefiles/rules.html#resources)
    # and which can be used to request RAM during cluster job submission as `{resources.mem_mb}`:
    # https://snakemake.readthedocs.io/en/latest/executing/cluster.html#job-properties
    resources:
        mem_mb=1024
    wrapper:
        "0.73.0/bio/picard/mergevcfs"

Note that input, output and log file paths can be chosen freely. When running with

snakemake --use-conda

the software dependencies will be automatically deployed into an isolated environment before execution.
