   :target: https://github.com/snakemake/snakemake-wrappers/pulls?q=is%3Apr+is%3Aopen+label%3Abio/picard/mergesamfiles

Merge sam/bam files using picard tools.



Example
-------

This wrapper can be used in the following way:

.. code-block:: python

    rule merge_bams:
        input:
            expand("mapped/{sample}.bam", sample=["a", "b"]),
        output:
            "merged.bam",
        log:
            "logs/picard_mergesamfiles.log",
        params:
            extra="--VALIDATION_STRINGENCY LENIENT",
        # 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:
            "v3.0.4/bio/picard/mergesamfiles"

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

When running with

.. code-block:: bash

    snakemake --use-conda

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


Notes
-----

* The `java_opts` param allows for additional arguments to be passed to the java compiler, e.g. "-XX:ParallelGCThreads=10" (not for `-XmX` or `-Djava.io.tmpdir`, since they are handled automatically).
* The `extra` param allows for additional program arguments.
* `--TMP_DIR` is automatically set by `resources.tmpdir`
* For more information see, https://broadinstitute.github.io/picard/command-line-overview.html#MergeSamFiles

* ``picard=3.1.1``
* ``snakemake-wrapper-utils=0.6.2``
