pybedtools.bedtool.BedTool.links¶

BedTool.links(*args, **kwargs)[source]¶

Wraps linksBed.

The resulting BedTool will have a new attribute links_html. This attribute is a temp filename containing the HTML links.

For convenience, the file or stream this BedTool points to is implicitly passed as the -i argument to linksBed

Original BEDTools help::

Tool:    bedtools links (aka linksBed)
Version: v2.26.0
Summary: Creates HTML links to an UCSC Genome Browser from a feature file.

Usage:   bedtools links [OPTIONS] -i <bed/gff/vcf> > out.html

Options: 
        -base   The browser basename.  Default: http://genome.ucsc.edu 
        -org    The organism. Default: human
        -db     The build.  Default: hg18

Example: 
        By default, the links created will point to human (hg18) UCSC browser.
        If you have a local mirror, you can override this behavior by supplying
        the -base, -org, and -db options.

        For example, if the URL of your local mirror for mouse MM9 is called: 
        http://mymirror.myuniversity.edu, then you would use the following:
        -base http://mymirror.myuniversity.edu
        -org mouse
        -db mm9
