Annotate Files (Standalone Nirvana Tool)

1. If you have not generated a VCF file, download a VCF file using the following command

curl -O https://raw.githubusercontent.com/HelixGrind/DotNetMisc/master/TestFiles/HiSeq.10000.vcf.gz

IAE supports uncompressed VCF files and bgzip compressed VCF files. VCF files that have been compressed by standard gzip are not supported.

2. To annotate the file, enter the following command:

/opt/edico/share/nirvana/Nirvana -c ~/Data/Cache/GRCh38/Both \ -r ~/Data/References/Homo_sapiens.GRCh38.Nirvana.dat \ --sd ~/Data/SupplementaryAnnotation/GRCh38 -i HiSeq.10000.vcf.gz -o HiSeq.10000

The following are the available command line options:
