A simple Python wrapper for the MyVariant API.
For extensive API documentation, see the MyVariant site.
Install me from PyPi! pip install myvariant-api
Basic Example
Find a given SNP with the rsID: rs11931074.
""" Use the query API to find a variant with
the given rsID.
"""
from myvariant.variant import Variant
results = Variant.find_by(q='rs11931074')
for r in result:
print r._id, r.cadd['chrom']
>>> chr4:g.9069515G>T, 4Detailed Example
Given an known variant, get it's begin and end coordinates.
""" Use the annotation API to find the full
details of a given variant.
"""
from myvariant.variant import Variant
variant = Variant.get('chr4:g.90639515G>T')
print variant._id, variant.dbsnp['hg19']['start'], variant.dbsnp['hg19']['end']
>>> chr4:g.90639515G>T, 90639515, 90639516This library also supports the metadata API.
from myvariant.metadata import Metadata
metadata = Metadata.get_metadata()
print metadata.stats['cadd']
