Reads/writes an R matrix of 0/1s to the HDF5 format which is used for reading to the kalis optimised memory cache. If you're working with a large haplotype dataset, we recommend that you convert it directly to this HDF5 format (see vignette) rather than read it into R.
Usage
WriteHaplotypes(
hdf5.file,
haps,
hap.ids = NA,
loci.ids = NA,
haps.name = "/haps",
hap.ids.name = "/hap.ids",
loci.ids.name = "/loci.ids",
append = FALSE
)
ReadHaplotypes(
hdf5.file,
loci.idx = NA,
hap.idx = NA,
loci.ids = NA,
hap.ids = NA,
haps.name = "/haps",
loci.ids.name = "/loci.ids",
hap.ids.name = "/hap.ids",
transpose = FALSE
)Arguments
- hdf5.file
the name of the file which the haplotypes are to be written to.
- haps
a vector or a matrix where each column is a haplotype to be stored in the file
hdf5.file.- hap.ids
a character vector naming haplotypes when writing, or which haplotypes are to be read.
- loci.ids
a character vector naming variants when writing, or which variants are to be read.
- haps.name
a string providing the full path and object name where the haplotype matrix should be read/written.
- hap.ids.name
a string providing the full path and object name where the haplotype names (in
haps.ids) should be read/written.- loci.ids.name
a string providing the full path and object name where the variant names (in
loci.ids) should be read/written.- append
a logical indicating whether overwrite (default) or append to an existing
hapsdataset if it already exists inhdf5.file.- loci.idx
an integer vector of the indices of which variants are to be read (for naming, use
hap.ids).- hap.idx
an integer vector of the indices of which haplotypes are to be read (for naming, use
hap.ids).- transpose
a logical indicating whether to transpose the logic of haplotypes/variants when reading.
Value
WriteHaplotypes does not return anything.
ReadHaplotypes returns a binary matrix containing the
haplotypes that were specified in ids.
Details
The primary method to load data into kalis' internal optimised cache is from an HDF5 storage file. If the user has a collection of haplotypes already represented as a matrix of 0's and 1's in R, this function can be used to write to HDF5 in the format required to load into cache.
kalis expects a 2-dimensional object named haps at the root level of the HDF5 file.
Haplotypes should be stored in the slowest changing dimension as defined in the HDF5 specification (note that different languages treat this as rows or columns).
Note that if hdf5.file exists but does not contain a dataset named haps, then WriteHaplotypes will simply create a haps dataset within the existing file.

Examples
# \donttest{
# Generate a random mini set of haplotypes to write
n.haps <- 20
n.vars <- 200
haps <- matrix(sample(0:1, n.haps*n.vars, replace = TRUE),
nrow = n.vars, ncol = n.haps)
# ... write them to a file, giving alphabetic letters "A" through "T" as the #' # haplotype names ...
WriteHaplotypes("~/myhaps.h5", haps, hap.ids = LETTERS[1:20])
#> Creating HDF5 file ...
#> Writing 20 haplotype(s) of size 200 ...
# ... and confirm we can read a chosen portion back. Try to read back
# the 10th and 11th haplotypes by using their name (J and K are 10th and 11th
# letter of the alphabet)
h5 <- ReadHaplotypes("~/myhaps.h5", hap.ids = c("J","K"))
all(h5$haps == haps[, 10:11])
#> [1] TRUE
# Read from the .h5 file into the kalis cache and confirm that what we wrote
# out to the HDF5 file matches the original matrix we generated in R
CacheHaplotypes("~/myhaps.h5")
#> Warning: haplotypes already cached ... overwriting existing cache.
all(haps == QueryCache())
#> [1] TRUE
