INTERSECTBED

Intersect BED/BAM/VCF files with bedtools.

URL: https://bedtools.readthedocs.io/en/latest/content/tools/intersect.html

Example

This wrapper can be used in the following way:

rule bedtools_merge:
    input:
        left="A.bed",
        right="B.bed"
    output:
        "A_B.intersected.bed"
    params:
        ## Add optional parameters
        extra="-wa -wb" ## In this example, we want to write original entries in A and B for each overlap.
    log:
        "logs/intersect/A_B.log"
    wrapper:
        "v3.0.2-2-g0dea6a1/bio/bedtools/intersect"

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.
