Is there a list of new features requested or bugs that need to be fixed. How would developers contribute if the were just getting involved on some volenteer part time basis?

Hello Ashreid,
We would love to have more people contributing to the codebase.
Getting started, I would first make sure you can:- Clone the source from github and build openge (See the developer docs for compilation instructions)
- Run the tests (make test)
- Branch the source so you have something to develop against
We don't have a public list of features and bugs to work on, but here are a couple of things off the top of my head:- Add additional testing. Most of the built in tests simply execute openge with valid inputs, but don't check the output of tests. More robust testing would be useful to us. Check out run.sh from this test that I just checked in for an example: here
I have been meaning to verify that we have full test coverage for both SAM and BAM inputs, being passed in as a filename, as well as piped into OpenGE. A good test (or set of tests) would verify that we can run:
just as well asCode:cat asdf.bam | ./openge count
orCode:./openge asdf.bam
Complete test coverage of all input types would be helpful; IO code is where we find the most bugs currently.Code:./openge count < asdf.bam.
- The CMake build system supports building packages for linux platforms (see here). It would be great if we could build .deb and .rpm packages with a command that included the appropriate binary and referenced necessary dependencies.
- Additional features. If you're interested on working on additional features, we will need to coordinate with David (adaptivegenome). He's the guy in charge of deciding what goes into openge.
If you have patches to contribute, please branch the openge source on github and submit a pull request with your modifications and we'll have a look.

The field of immunogenetics explores how genetic variations influence immune responses and susceptibility to disease. In a recent SEQanswers webinar, Oscar Rodriguez, Ph.D., Postdoctoral Researcher at the University of Louisville, and Ruben Martínez Barricarte, Ph.D., Assistant Professor of Medicine at Vanderbilt University, shared recent advancements in immunogenetics. This article discusses their research on genetic variation in antibody loci, antibody production processes,...11-06-2024, 07:24 PM -
Next-generation sequencing (NGS) and quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qPCR) are essential techniques for investigating the genome, transcriptome, and epigenome. In many cases, choosing the appropriate technique is straightforward, but in others, it can be more challenging to determine the most effective option. A simple distinction is that smaller, more focused projects are typically better suited for qPCR, while larger, more complex datasets benefit from NGS. However,...10-18-2024, 07:11 AM
