Takes a VCF and a second file that contains a sequence dictionary and updates the VCF with the new sequence dictionary.
Category Variant Manipulation
Overview
Takes a VCF file and a Sequence Dictionary (from a variety of file types) and updates the Sequence Dictionary in VCF.UpdateVcfSequenceDictionary (Picard) specific arguments
This table summarizes the command-line arguments that are specific to this tool. For more details on each argument, see the list further down below the table or click on an argument name to jump directly to that entry in the list.
Argument name(s) | Default value | Summary | |
---|---|---|---|
Required Arguments | |||
--INPUT -I |
null | Input VCF | |
--OUTPUT -O |
null | Output VCF to be written. | |
--SEQUENCE_DICTIONARY -SD |
null | A Sequence Dictionary (can be read from one of the following file types (SAM, BAM, VCF, BCF, Interval List, Fasta, or Dict) | |
Optional Tool Arguments | |||
--arguments_file |
[] | read one or more arguments files and add them to the command line | |
--help -h |
false | display the help message | |
--version |
false | display the version number for this tool | |
Optional Common Arguments | |||
--COMPRESSION_LEVEL |
5 | Compression level for all compressed files created (e.g. BAM and VCF). | |
--CREATE_INDEX |
false | Whether to create a BAM index when writing a coordinate-sorted BAM file. | |
--CREATE_MD5_FILE |
false | Whether to create an MD5 digest for any BAM or FASTQ files created. | |
--GA4GH_CLIENT_SECRETS |
client_secrets.json | Google Genomics API client_secrets.json file path. | |
--MAX_RECORDS_IN_RAM |
500000 | When writing files that need to be sorted, this will specify the number of records stored in RAM before spilling to disk. Increasing this number reduces the number of file handles needed to sort the file, and increases the amount of RAM needed. | |
--QUIET |
false | Whether to suppress job-summary info on System.err. | |
--REFERENCE_SEQUENCE -R |
null | Reference sequence file. | |
--TMP_DIR |
[] | One or more directories with space available to be used by this program for temporary storage of working files | |
--USE_JDK_DEFLATER -use_jdk_deflater |
false | Use the JDK Deflater instead of the Intel Deflater for writing compressed output | |
--USE_JDK_INFLATER -use_jdk_inflater |
false | Use the JDK Inflater instead of the Intel Inflater for reading compressed input | |
--VALIDATION_STRINGENCY |
STRICT | Validation stringency for all SAM files read by this program. Setting stringency to SILENT can improve performance when processing a BAM file in which variable-length data (read, qualities, tags) do not otherwise need to be decoded. | |
--VERBOSITY |
INFO | Control verbosity of logging. | |
Advanced Arguments | |||
--showHidden |
false | display hidden arguments |

List[File] []
--COMPRESSION_LEVEL / NA
Compression level for all compressed files created (e.g. BAM and VCF).
int 5 [ [ -∞ ∞ ] ]
--CREATE_INDEX / NA
Whether to create a BAM index when writing a coordinate-sorted BAM file.
Boolean false
--CREATE_MD5_FILE / NA
Whether to create an MD5 digest for any BAM or FASTQ files created.
boolean false
--GA4GH_CLIENT_SECRETS / NA
Google Genomics API client_secrets.json file path.
String client_secrets.json
--help / -h
display the help message
boolean false
--INPUT / -I
Input VCF
R File null
--MAX_RECORDS_IN_RAM / NA
When writing files that need to be sorted, this will specify the number of records stored in RAM before spilling to disk. Increasing this number reduces the number of file handles needed to sort the file, and increases the amount of RAM needed.
Integer 500000 [ [ -∞ ∞ ] ]
--OUTPUT / -O
Output VCF to be written.
R File null
--QUIET / NA
Whether to suppress job-summary info on System.err.
Boolean false

A Sequence Dictionary (can be read from one of the following file types (SAM, BAM, VCF, BCF, Interval List, Fasta, or Dict)
R File null
--showHidden / -showHidden
display hidden arguments
boolean false
--TMP_DIR / NA

Boolean false
--USE_JDK_INFLATER / -use_jdk_inflater

- STRICT
- LENIENT
- SILENT
ValidationStringency STRICT
