This library parses variant call files (VCF) written in standard c++. The parser implements the VCF4.3 grammar, although it is more permissive.
Check out a copy of this library, include all the files from the src folder and you're ready to go.
A minimal example:
#include "DefaultHandler.h"
#include "SNVEntry.h"
#include "VCFParser.h"
#include <iostream>
#include <fstream>
class ExampleHandler: public parsevcf::DefaultHandler {
void entry(const parsevcf::SNVEntry& entry) {
std::cout << entry.id();
std::cout.flush();
}
};
int main() {
std::fstream input("name-of-file.vcf");
ExampleHandler handler;
parsevcf::VCFParser parser(input, handler);
parser.parse();
}
To run the tests just call make.
