USAGE: unstarch [ <chromosome> ] [ --elements |
--elements-max-string-length |

--bases | --bases-uniq | --has-duplicates | --has-nested | --list | --list-json | --list-chromosomes | --archive-timestamp | --note | --archive-version | --is-starch | --signature | --verify-signature ] <starch-file>

Modifiers -------------------------------------------------------------------------- <chromosome> Optional. Either unarchives chromosomespecific records from the starch archive

file or restricts action of operator to

chromosome (e.g., chr1, chrY, etc.).

Process Flags -------------------------------------------------------------------------- --elements Show total element count for archive. If

<chromosome> is specified, the result

shows the element count for the chromosome.

--elements-max-string-length

Show the maximum string length over all elements in <chromosome>, if specified. If <chromosome> is not specified, the maximum string length is shown over all chromosomes.

--bases,

--bases-uniq

Show total and unique base counts, respectively, for archive. If <chromosome> is specified, the count is specific to the chromosome, if available.

--has-duplicate-as-string,

--has-duplicate

Show whether there is one or more duplicate elements in the specified chromosome, either as a numerical (1/0) or string (true/false) value. If no <chromosome> is specified, the value given indicates if there is one or more duplicate elements across all chromosome records.

--has-nested-as-string,

--has-nested

Show whether there is one ore more nested elements in the specified chromosome, either as a numerical (1/0) or string (true/false) value. If no <chromosome> is specified, the value given indicates if there is one or more nested elements across all chromosome records.

--list

List archive metadata (output is in text format). If chromosome is specified, the attributes of the given chromosome are shown.

--list-json,

--list-json-no-trailing-newline

List archive metadata (output is in JSON format)

--list-chr,

--list-chromosomes

List all or specified chromosome in starch archive (like "bedextract --listchr"). If <chromosome> is specified but is not in the output list, nothing is returned.

--note

Show descriptive note, if available.

--signature

Display the Base64-encoded SHA-1 data integrity signature for specified <chromosome>, or the signatures of the metadata and all available chromosomes, if the <chromosome> is unspecified.

--verify-signature

Verify data integrity of specified <chromosome>, or the integrity of all available chromosomes, if the <chromosome> is unspecified.

--archive-timestamp

Show archive creation timestamp (ISO 8601 format).

--archive-type

Show archive compression type.

--archive-version

Show archive version.

--is-starch

Test if <starch-file> is a valid archive and print 0/1 (false/true) to standard output. Unstarch will also return a nonzero error code if the input file is not a valid archive.

--version

Show binary version.

--help

Show this usage message.
