Description: bcbio-nextgen
        -------------
        
        Validated, scalable, community developed variant calling and RNA-seq analysis.
        You write a high level configuration file specifying your inputs and analysis
        parameters.  This input drives a parallel run that handles distributed
        execution, idempotent processing restarts and safe transactional steps.
        bcbio-nextgen provides a shared community resource that handles the data processing
        component of sequencing analysis, providing researchers with more time to focus
        on the downstream biology.
        
        Features
        --------
        
        - Community developed: We welcome contributors with the goal of
          overcoming the biological, algorithmic and computational challenges
          that face individual developers working on complex pipelines in
          quickly changing research areas. See our `users page`_ for examples
          of bcbio-nextgen deployments, and the `developer documentation`_ for
          tips on contributing.
        
        - Installation: `A single installer script`_ prepares all
          third party software, data libraries and system configuration files.
        
        - `Automated validation`_: Compare variant calls against common reference
          materials or sample specific SNP arrays to ensure call correctness.
          Incorporation of multiple approaches for alignment, preparation and
          variant calling enable unbiased comparisons of algorithms.
        
        - Distributed: Focus on `parallel analysis and scaling`_ to handle
          large population studies and whole genome analysis. Runs on single
          multicore computers, in compute clusters using `IPython parallel`_,
          or on the Amazon cloud. See the `parallel documentation`_ for full
          details.
        
        - Multiple analysis algorithms: bcbio-nextgen provides configurable
          `variant calling and RNA-seq pipelines`_.

        Quick start
        -----------
        
        1. `Install`_ ``bcbio-nextgen`` with all tool dependencies and data files::
        
                 wget https://raw.github.com/chapmanb/bcbio-nextgen/master/scripts/bcbio_nextgen_install.py
                 python bcbio_nextgen_install.py /usr/local/share/bcbio --tooldir=/usr/local \
                   --genomes GRCh37 --aligners bwa --aligners bowtie2
        
           producing an editable `system configuration file`_ referencing the installed
           software, data and system information.
        
        2. `Automatically create a processing description`_ of sample FASTQ and BAM files
           from your project, and a CSV file of sample metadata::
        
                 bcbio_nextgen.py -w template freebayes-variant project1.csv sample1.bam sample2_1.fq sample2_2.fq
        
           This produces a `sample description file`_ containing pipeline `configuration options`_.
        
        3. Run analysis, distributed across 8 local cores::
        
                 cd project1/work
                 bcbio_nextgen.py ../config/project1.yaml -n 8
        
        .. _system configuration file: https://github.com/chapmanb/bcbio-nextgen/blob/master/config/bcbio_system.yaml
        .. _sample description file: https://github.com/chapmanb/bcbio-nextgen/blob/master/config/bcbio_sample.yaml
        .. _Automatically create a processing description: https://bcbio-nextgen.readthedocs.org/en/latest/contents/configuration.html#automated-sample-configuration
        .. _Install: https://bcbio-nextgen.readthedocs.org/en/latest/contents/installation.html#automated
        .. _configuration options: https://bcbio-nextgen.readthedocs.org/en/latest/contents/configuration.html
