# Minimac4

Minimac4 is a lower memory and more computationally efficient
implementation of the genotype imputation algorithms in 
minimac/mininac2/minimac3.

<<< SEE http://genome.sph.umich.edu/wiki/Minimac4 FOR DOCUMENTATION >>>

Users should follow the following steps to compile Minimac4 

## Prerequisites

Automatic installation of Minimac4 requires [cget](http://cget.readthedocs.io/en/latest/src/intro.html#installing-cget) and cmake v3.2. These prerequisites can be installed as follows:

Ubuntu 16.04
```
sudo apt-get install cmake python-pip python-dev
pip install cget
```
Ubuntu 14.04
```
sudo apt-get install software-properties-common
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:george-edison55/cmake-3.x
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install cmake python-pip python-dev
pip install cget
```
MacOS
```
brew install cmake
sudo easy-install pip
pip install --user cget --ignore-installed six
```

## Installation
The easiest way to install Minimac4 and its dependencies is to use cget as follows:
```bash
cget install --prefix <install_prefix> statgen/Minimac4
```

Alternatively, you can install manually:
```bash
cd Minimac4
cget install -f ./requirements.txt                      # Install dependencies locally.
mkdir build && cd build                                 # Create out of source build directory.
cmake -DCMAKE_TOOLCHAIN_FILE=../cget/cget/cget.cmake .. # Configure project with dependency paths.
make                                                    # Build.
make install                                            # Install
```



## Usage
A typical Minimac4 command line for imputation is as follows
```bash
minimac4 --refHaps refPanel.m3vcf \
         --haps targetStudy.vcf \
         --prefix testRun
```
Here refPanel.m3vcf is the reference panel used in M3VCF format (e.g. 1000 Genomes), 
targetStudy.vcf is the phased GWAS data in VCF format, 
and testRun is the prefix for the output files.
