seqminer: Efficiently Read Sequence Data (VCF Format, BCF Format, METAL Format and BGEN Format) into R

Integrate sequencing data (Variant call format, e.g. VCF or BCF) or meta-analysis results in R. This package can help you (1) read VCF/BCF/BGEN files by chromosomal ranges (e.g. 1:100-200); (2) read 'RareMETAL' summary statistics files; (3) read tables from a 'tabix'-indexed files; (4) annotate VCF/BCF files; (5) create customized workflow based on Makefile.

Copyright: We have used the following software and made minimal necessary changes: tabix, Heng Li <lh3@live.co.uk> (MIT license), SQLite (Public Domain), Zstandard (BSD license). For tabix, we removed standard IO related functions, e.g. printf, fprintf ; also changed its un-safe pointer arithmetics. For zstandard, we removed compiler (clang, MSVC) specific preprocessing flags.
