34
+ # tview
35
+
36
+ Publication-quality alignment viewer for nucleotide and amino acid sequences. A lightweight alternative to `samtools tview` that produces clean, stable image output.
37
+
38
+ Supports **BAM files** (with reference FASTA), **pre-aligned FASTA** (e.g. MAFFT output), and **stacking** multiple inputs into a single figure.
39
+
40
+ ![BAM with indels](examples/indel_alignment.png)
41
+ *BAM mode — SNP (yellow), 3bp deletion, 2bp insertion (purple columns), reverse-strand insertion*
42
+
43
+ ![FASTA amino acid alignment](examples/fasta_env_1-120.png)
44
+ *FASTA mode — HIV Env protein alignment (HxB2 reference), amino acid palette*
45
+
46
+ ![Stacked BAMs](examples/stacked_bam.png)
47
+ *Stacked mode — two BAM files sharing a reference and region*
48
+

50
+
51
+ ## Installation
52
+
53
+ ```bash
54
+ pip install tview
55
+ ```
56
+
57
+ Installs `matplotlib`, `click`, and `pysam`.
58
+
59
+ ---
60
+
61
+ ## Quick Start
62
+
63
+ ### BAM file
64
+
65
+ ```bash
66
+ tview \
67
+ --bam aligned.bam \
68
+ --ref reference.fa \
69
+ --region chr1:100-200 \
70
+ -o alignment.png
71
+ ```
72
+
73
+ ### Aligned FASTA (e.g. MAFFT output)
74
+
75
+ The first sequence in the file is treated as the reference.
76
+
77
+ ```bash
78
+ tview \
79
+ --fasta env_protein_aligned.fasta \
80
+ --palette aa \
81
+ -o env_alignment.png
82
+ ```
83
+
84
+ ### Subset columns from a FASTA alignment
85
+
86
+ Use `--columns` with 1-based inclusive range to window into long alignments.
87
+
88
+ ```bash
89
+ tview \
90
+ --fasta aligned.fasta \
91
+ --columns 1-120 \
92
+ --palette aa \
93
+ -o first_120_cols.png
94
+ ```
95
+
96
+ ---
97
+
98
+ ## Stacking Multiple Panels
99
+
100
+ Each input file becomes a vertically stacked panel separated by a thin line. Panels are labeled on the left with the filename stem.
101
+
102
+ ### Multiple BAMs (shared reference and region)
103
+
104
+ ```bash
105
+ tview \
106
+ --bam sample1.bam --bam sample2.bam --bam sample3.bam \
107
+ --ref reference.fa \
108
+ --region chr1:100-200 \
109
+ -o stacked.png
110
+ ```
111
+
112
+ ### Multiple FASTAs
113
+
114
+ ```bash
115
+ tview \
116
+ --fasta group1_aligned.fasta --fasta group2_aligned.fasta \
117
+ --palette aa \
118
+ --columns 1-120 \
119
+ -o comparison.png
120
+ ```
121
+
122
+ ### Mix BAM and FASTA panels
123
+
124
+ `--ref` and `--region` apply only to BAM panels; `--columns` applies only to FASTA panels.
125
+
126
+ ```bash
127
+ tview \
128
+ --bam reads.bam \
129
+ --ref reference.fa \
130
+ --region chr1:100-200 \
131
+ --fasta protein_aligned.fasta \
132
+ --columns 1-120 \
133
+ -o mixed.png
134
+ ```
135
+
136
+ BAM panels are rendered first (top), FASTA panels below.
137

139
+
140
+ ## Piping from stdin
141
+
142
+ Pass `-` to read file paths from stdin (one per line). Each path becomes its own panel.
143
+
144
+ ```bash
145
+ # find → stacked panels
146
+ find ./alignments -name "*.fasta" -type f | \
147
+ tview --fasta - --palette aa --columns 1-120 -o all.png
148
+
149
+ # ls with pattern
150
+ ls samples/*.bam | \
151
+ tview --bam - --ref ref.fa --region chr1:100-200 -o all_samples.png
152
+
153
+ # single file via echo
154
+ echo "my_alignment.fasta" | \
155
+ tview --fasta - --palette aa -o out.png
156
+ ```

160
+ ## Python API
161
+
162
+ The core functions are available as a Python library:
163
+
164
+ ```python
165
+ from tview import fasta_panel, bam_panel, render_panels
166
+
167
+ # FASTA alignment
168
+ panel = fasta_panel("aligned.fasta", col_start=1, col_end=120)
169
+ render_panels([panel], "output.png", palette="aa")
170
+
171
+ # BAM alignment
172
+ panel = bam_panel("sample.bam", "reference.fa", "chr1:100-200")
173
+ render_panels([panel], "output.png")
174
+
175
+ # Stack multiple panels
176
+ panels = [
177
+ bam_panel("sample1.bam", "ref.fa", "chr1:100-200"),
178
+ bam_panel("sample2.bam", "ref.fa", "chr1:100-200"),
179
+ ]
180
+ render_panels(panels, "stacked.png", dpi=300, fontsize=7, cell=0.14)
181
+ ```

259
+ ## Tips for Publication Figures
260
+
261
+ - Use `--dpi 300` (default) for print, `--dpi 150` for drafts.
262
+ - Use `--cell 0.10` for denser layouts with many sequences, `--cell 0.18` for fewer.
263
+ - Use `--fontsize 5` or `6` when displaying wide alignments (>100 columns).
264
+ - The output format is determined by the file extension: `.png`, `.pdf`, `.svg` all work.
265
+ - For Nature-style figures, `.pdf` or `.svg` output preserves vector text.
266
+
267
+ ```bash
268
+ # Vector output for publication
269
+ tview \
270
+ --fasta aligned.fasta \
271
+ --palette aa \
272
+ --columns 1-120 \
273
+ --cell 0.12 \
274
+ --fontsize 6 \
275
+ -o figure_2a.pdf
276
+ ```
277
+
278
+ ---
279
+
280
+ ## FASTA Input Format
281
+
282
+ The FASTA input must be **pre-aligned** (e.g. by MAFFT, MUSCLE, Clustal). The first sequence is used as the reference for comparison. Gap characters (`-`) in the alignment are preserved and rendered as grey dashes.
283
+
284
+ ```
285
+ >HxB2_reference
286
+ MRVK---EKYQHLWRWGWRWGTMLLGMLMICS...
287
+ >sample_001
288
+ MRVKGIRKNAQHL----WRGGTLLLGMLMICS...
289
+ >sample_002
290
+ --------------------------MLMICS...
291
+ ```
292
+
293
+ The x-axis labels count non-gap positions in the reference sequence (1, 10, 20, ...), so position numbers always correspond to the reference residue numbering regardless of gap columns.
