CHANGELOG

NEXT

13.0.0 (17 August 2021)

Major Changes

  • filter: Skip metadata records with ambiguous month information in the date column when grouping by month instead of randomly generating month values for those records. This change alters the behavior of the filter command for metadata with ambiguous month values. For these data, consider using --group-by year instead of --group-by year month. #761 (@huddlej)

Features

  • filter: When grouping by year or month, report the number of strains skipped due to ambiguous year and month both in the summary report at the end of filtering and in the --output-log contents #761 (@huddlej)

  • filter: Rewrite internal logic to use pandas DataFrames (#743), define filters and subsampling logic as individual functions (#745 and #746), and iterate through chunks of metadata instead of loading all records into memory at once (#750) (@tsibley, @huddlej)

Bug Fixes

  • distance: Change numeric type of distance output to float #729 (@benjaminotter)
  • filter: Disable probabilistic sampling when users provide --sequences-per-group #737 (@benjaminotter)

10.0.0 (17 August 2020)

Major Changes

  • Remove Snakemake as a dependency of the augur Python package #557
    • Updated documentation to reflect external Snakemake dependency #600 and Snakemake's required --cores argument #599
  • utils: read_colors refactor #588

  • export: Allow display defaults for transmission lines #561

7.0.2 (7 April 2020)

Bug Fixes

  • filter: Fix regression introduced in 7.0.0 which caused an error to be raised if a priorities file didn't include every sequence. Sequences which are not explicitly listed will once again default to a priority of 0. #530

    • adding code coverage reports (#486, #491) and integration with codecov.io #508
    • adding unit tests for align (#477), filter (#478, #479, #487), utils (#501)
  • align: reverse complement sequences when necessary using mafft’s autodirection flag #467
  • align: speed up replacement of gaps with “ambiguous” bases #474
  • mask: add support for FASTA input files #493
  • traits: bump TreeTime version to 0.7.4 and increase maximum number of unique traits allowed from 180 to 300 #495

Bug Fixes

  • align: enable filling gaps in input sequences even if no reference is provided instead of throwing an exception #466
  • align: detect duplicate sequences by comparing sequence objects instead of (often truncated) string representations of those objects #468
  • import_beast: use raw strings for regular expressions to avoid syntax errors in future versions of Python #469
  • scripts: update exception syntax to new style #484
  • filter: fail loudly when a given priority file is invalid and exit instead of just printing an error #487

Documentation

  • README: document need for brew tap prior to brew install #471
  • DEV_DOCS: add a proper section on how to write and run tests #481
  • README: improve discoverability of core documentation with RTD badge #490

6.4.3 (25 March 2020)

Bug Fixes

  • align: Remove reference sequence from alignments even when no gaps exist in input sequences relative to the reference. Thank you @danielsoneg! #456

Documentation

  • Reorganize README, improve findability of documentation, and add separate dev docs. #461

6.4.2 (17 March 2020)

Bug Fixes

  • Require Snakemake less than 5.11 to avoid a breaking change. The --cores argument is now required by 5.11, which will affect many existing augur-based workflows. Reported upstream as snakemake/snakemake#283.

  • align: Run mafft with the --nomemsave option. This makes alignments of sequences over 10k in length run much, much faster in the general case and shouldn't cause issues for most modern hardware. We may end up needing to add an off-switch for this mode if it causes issues for other users of augur, but the hope is that it will make things just magically run faster for most folks! There is likely more tuning that could be done with mafft, but this is a huge improvement in our testing. #458

  • align: Ignore blank lines in --include files. Thanks @CameronDevine! #451

  • align: Properly quote filenames when invoking mafft. Thanks @CameronDevine! #452

6.4.1 (4 March 2020)

Bug Fixes

  • export: AA labels are now exported for branches where a clade is also labeled See PR 447

  • export / validation: a dataset title is no longer required

  • release script now works on MacOS & code-signing is optional See PR 448

  • traits: Missing data is correctly handled

6.4.0 (26 February 2020)

Features

  • align: New sequences can now be added to an existing alignment. #422

  • align: Multiple sequence files can be provided as input. #422

  • align: Extra debugging files such as *.pre_aligner.fasta and *.post_aligner.fasta are no longer produced by default. To request them, pass the --debug flag. #422

  • align: De-duplicate input sequences, with a warning. #422

  • export v2: Add support for the branch_label property in display_defaults, which was recently added to Auspice. #445

Bug fixes

  • align: Exits with an error earlier if arguments are invalid instead of only printing a warning. #422

  • align: Performs more error checking and clarifies the help and error messages. #422

  • export v2: Traits which are filters but not colorings are now exported as well, instead of being left out. #442

  • export v2: Exits non-zero when validation fails, instead of masking errors. #441

  • validate: In order to improve clarity, messages now include the filenames involved and distinguish between schema validation and internal consistency checks. #441

6.3.0 (13 February 2020)

Features

  • Augur refine, ancestral and traits now use the upgraded TreeTime v0.7 This should have a number of under-the-hood improvements. See PR 431
  • ancestral: New options to either --keep-ambiguous or --infer-ambiguous. If using --infer-ambiguous the previous behavior will be maintained in which tips with N will have their nucleotide state inferred. If using --keep-ambiguous, these tips will be left as N. With this upgrade, we are still defaulting to --infer-ambiguous, however, we plan to swap default to --keep-ambiguous in the future. If this distintion matters to you, we would suggest that you explicitly record --keep-ambiguous / --infer-ambiguous in your build process. Also part of PR 431
  • traits: Allow input of --weights which references a .tsv file in the following format: 
    division	Hubei	10.0
division	Jiangxi	1.0
division	Chongqing	1.0
    where these weights represent equilibrium frequencies in the CTMC transition model. We imagine the primary use of user-specified weights to correct for strong sampling biases in available data. See PR 443

Bug fixes

  • Improvements to make shell scripts run more easily on Windows. See PR 437

6.2.0 (25 January 2020)

Features

  • refine: Include --divergence-units option to distinguish between mutations and mutations-per-site. Keep mutations-per-site as default behavior. See PR 435

Bug fixes

  • utils: Support v2 auspice JSONs in json_to_tree utility function. See PR 432

6.1.1 (17 December 2019)

Bug fixes

  • frequencies: Fix bug in string matching for weighted frequencies introduced in v6.1.0. See PR 426.

6.1.0 (13 December 2019)

Features

  • export: Include --description option to pass in a Markdown file with dataset description. This is displays in Auspice in the footer. For rationale, see Auspice issue 707 and for Augur changes see PR 423.

Bug fixes

  • frequencies: Fix weighted frequencies when weight keys are unrepresented. See PR 420.

6.0.0 (10 December 2019)

Overview

Version 6 is a major release of augur affecting many augur commands. The format of the exported JSON (v2) has changed and now merges the previously separate files containing tree and meta information. To maintain backward compatibility, the export command was split into export v1 (old) and export v2 (new). Detailed release notes are provided in the augur documentation on read-the-docs. For a migration guide, consult migrating-v5-v6.

Major features / changes

  • export: Swap from a separate _tree.json and _meta.json to a single "unified" dataset.json output file
  • export: Include additional command line options to alleviate need for Auspice config
  • export: Include option for reference sequence output
  • export: Move to GFF-style annotations
  • export: Validate exported JSONs against schema
  • ancestral: Allow output of FASTA and JSON files
  • import: Include import beast command to import labeled BEAST MCC tree
  • parse: Include --prettify-fields option to cleanup metadata fields
  • Documentation improvements

Minor features / changes

  • colors.tsv: Allow whitespace, but insist on tab delimiting
  • lat_longs.tsv: Allow whitespace, but insist on tab delimiting
  • Remove code for old "non-modular" augur, old "non-modular" builds and Python tests
  • Improve test builds
  • filter: More interpretable output of how many sequences have been filtered
  • filter: Additional flag --subsample-seed to seed the random number generator and thereby make subsampling reproducible
  • sequence-traits: Numerical output as originally intended, but required an Auspice bugfix
  • traits: Explanation of what is considered missing data & how it is interpreted
  • traits: GTR models are exported in the output JSON for better accountability & reproducibility

5.4.1 (12 November 2019)

Bug fixes

  • export v1: Include --minify-json option that was mistakenly not included in PR 398. See PR 409

5.4.0 (7 November 2019)

Features

  • frequencies: Include --minimal-clade-size-to-estimate command line option. See PR 383
  • lbi: Include --no-normalization command line option. See PR 380

Compatibility fixes

  • export: Include v1 subcommand to allow forwards compatibiliy with Augur v6 builds. See PR 398

Bug fixes

  • export: Include warning if using a mismatched v6 translate file. See PR 392
  • frequencies: Fix determination of interval for clipping of non-informative pivots

5.3.0 (9 September 2019)

Features

  • export: Improve printing of error messages with missing or conflicting author data. See issue 274
  • filter: Improve printing of dropped strains to include reasons why strains were dropped. See PR 367
  • refine: Add support for command line flag --keep-polytomies to not resolve polytomies when producing a time tree. See PR 345

Bug fixes

  • Catch and throw error when there are duplicate strain names. See PR 356
  • Fix missing annotation of "parent" attribute for the root node
  • Run shell commands with more robust error checking. See PR 350
  • Better handling of rerooting options for trees without temporal information. See issue 348

Data

  • Small fixes in geographic coordinate file

5.2.1 (4 August 2019)

Bug fixes

  • Print more useful error message if Python recursion limit is reached. See issue 328
  • Print more useful error message if vcftools if missing. See PR 312

Development

  • Significantly relax version requirements specified in setup.py for biopython, pandas, etc... Additionally, move lesser used packages (cvxopt, matplotlib, seaborn) into an "extras_require" field. This should reduce conflicts with other pip installed packages. See PR 323

Data

  • Include additional country lat/longs in base data

5.2.0 (23 July 2019)

Features

  • ancestral: Adds a new flag --output-sequences and logic to support saving ancestral sequences and leaves from the given tree to a FASTA file. Also adds a redundant, more specific flag --output-node-data that will replace the current --output flag in the next major version release of augur. For now, we issue a deprecation warning when the --output flag is used. Note that FASTA output is only allowed for FASTA inputs and not for VCFs. We don't allow FASTA output for VCFs anywhere else and, if we did here, the output files would be very large. See PR 293

  • frequencies: Allow --method kde flag to compute frequencies via KDE kernels. This complements existing method of --method diffusion. Generally, KDE frequencies should be more robust and faster to run, but will not project as well when forecasting frequencies into the future. See PR 271

Bug fixes

  • ancestral, traits, translate: Print warning if supplied tree is missing internal node names (normally provided by running augur refine). See PR 283

  • Include pip in Conda enviroment file. See PR 309

Documentation

  • Document environment variables respected by Augur

Development

  • Remove matplotlib and seaborn from setup.py install. These are still called a few places in augur (like titers.validate()), but it was deemed rare enough that remove this from setup.py would ease general install for most users. Additionally, the ipdb debugger has been moved to dev dependencies. See PR 291

  • Refactor logic to read trees from multiple formats into a function. Adds a new function read_tree to the utils module that tries to safely handle reading trees in multiple input formats. See PR 310

5.1.1 (1 July 2019)

Features

  • tree: Add support for the GTR+R10 substitution model.
  • tree: Support parentheses in node names when using IQ-TREE.

Bug fixes

  • Use the center of the UK for its coordinates instead of London.
  • filter: Mark --output required, which it always was but wasn't marked.
  • filter: Avoid error when no excluded strains file is provided.
  • export: Fix for preliminary version 2 schema support.
  • refine: Correct error handling when the tree file is missing or empty.

Documentation

  • Add examples of Augur usage in the wild.
  • Rename and reorganize CLI and Python API pages a little bit to make "where do I start learning to use Augur?" clearer to non-devs.

Development

  • Relax version requirements of pandas and seaborn. The hope is this will make installation smoother (particularly alongside other packages which require newer pandas versions) while not encountering breaking changes in newer versions ourselves.

5.1.0 (29 May 2019)

Documentation

  • Documentation is now available online for the augur CLI and Python API via Read The Docs: https://nextstrain-augur.readthedocs.io. The latest version on RTD points to the git master branch, and the stable version to the most recent tagged release. Instructions for building the docs locally are in the README.

5.0.0 (26 May 2019)

Features

  • ancestral: New option to --keep-ambiguous, which will not infer nucleotides at ambiguous (N) sites on tip sequences and instead leave as 'N' See PR 280.
  • ancestral: New option to --keep-overhangs, which will not infer nucleotides for gaps on either side of the alignment and instead leave as '-'. See PR 286.
  • clades: This module has been reconfigured to identify clade defining mutations on top of a reference rather than identifying mutations along the tree. The command line arguments are the same except for the addition of --reference, which explicitly passes in a reference sequence. If --reference is not defined, then reference will be drawn from the root node of the phylogeny by looking for sequence attribute attached to root node of --tree. See PR 288.
  • refine: Revise rooting behavior. Previously --root took 'best', 'residual', 'rsq' and 'min_dev' as options. In this update --root takes 'best', least-squares', 'min_dev' and 'oldest' as rooting options. This eliminates 'residual' and 'rsq' as options. This is a backwards-incompatible change. This requires updating TreeTime to version 0.5.4 or above. See PR 263.
  • refine: Add --keep-root option that overrides --root specification to preserve tree rooting. See PR 263.
  • refine: Add --covariance and --no-covariance options that specify TreeTime behavior. See PR 263.
  • titers: This command now throws an InsufficientDataException if there are not sufficient titers to infer a model. This is paired with a new --allow-empty-model flag that proceeds past the InsufficientDataException and writes out a model JSON corresponding to an 'empty' model. See PR 281.
  • By default JSONs are written with index=1 to give a pretty-printed JSON. However, this adds significant file size to large tree JSONs. If the environment variable AUGUR_MINIFY_JSON is set then minified JSONs are printed instead. This mirror the explicit --minify-json argument available to augur export. See PR 278.

Bug fixes

  • export: Cast numeric values to strings for export. See issue 287.
  • export: Legend order preserves ordering passed in by user for traits that have default colorings ('country' and 'region'). See PR 284.
  • refine: Previously, the --root argument was silently ignored when no timetree was inferred. Re-rooting with an outgroup is sensible even without a timetree. See PR 282.

4.0.0 (24 April 2019)

Features

  • distance: New interface for specifying distances between sequences. This is a backwards-incompatible change. Refer to augur distance --help for all the details.

  • export: Add a --minify-json flag to omit indentation in Auspice JSONs.

Bug fixes

  • frequencies: Emit one-based coordinates (instead of zero-based) for KDE-based mutation frequencies

Data

  • Include additional country lat/longs in base data

3.1.8 (13 February 2019)

Bug fixes

  • titers: fix calculation of mean_potentency for model export

3.1.7 (5 February 2019)

Bug fixes

  • Update to TreeTime 0.5.3
  • tree: Fix bug in printing causing errors in Python versions <3.6
  • tree: Alter site masking to not be so memory intensive

3.1.6 (29 January 2019)

Features

  • filter: Allow negative matches to --exclude-where. For example, --exclude-where country!=usa would exclude all samples where metadata country does not equal usa.
  • tree: Allow --exclude-sites to work with FASTA input. Ensure that indexing of input sites is one-based.

Bug fixes

  • fix loading of strains when loading titers from file, previously strains had not been filtered to match the tree appropriately

3.1.5 (13 January 2019)

Features

  • frequencies: Add --ignore-char and --minimal-clade-size as options.
  • frequencies: Include --stiffness and --inertia as options.
  • titers: Allow multiple titer date files in --titers import.

Bug fixes

  • filter: Fix --non-nucleotide call to include ? as allowed character.
  • tree: Fix --method raxml to properly delimit interim RAxML output so that simultaneous builds don't conflict.

Data

  • Include additional country lat/longs in base data

3.1.4 (1 January 2019)

Bug fixes

  • frequencies: Include counts in augur frequencies output JSON to support downstream plotting.

Data

  • Include additional country lat/longs in base data

3.1.3 (29 December 2018)

Features

  • filter: Add --non-nucleotide option to remove sequences with non-conforming nucleotide characters.

Bug fixes

  • Revise treatment of -, in augur parse to leave - as is and remove white space. Also delimit [ and ] to _.
  • Fix bug in naming of temp IQTREE fixes to prevent conflicts from simultaneous builds.

Data

  • Include additional country lat/longs in base data

Development

3.1.2 (21 December 2018)

Bug fixes

  • Update dependencies

3.1.1 (21 December 2018)

Bug fixes

  • filter: Fix --include-where. Adds an all_seq variable needed by the logic to include records by value. This was previously working for VCF but threw an exception for sequences in FASTA format.
  • Update flu reference viruses and lat longs.
  • Update dependencies

3.1.0 (18 December 2018)

Features

  • reconstruct-sequences: Include augur reconstruct-sequences module that reconstructs alignments from mutations inferred on the tree
  • distance: Include augur distance module that calculates the distance between amino acid sequences across entire genes or at a predefined subset of sites
  • lbi: Include augur lbi module that calculates local branching index (LBI) for a given tree and one or more sets of parameters.
  • frequencies: Include --method kde as option to augur frequencies, separate from the existing --method diffusion logic. KDE frequencies are faster and better for smaller clades but don't extrapolate as well as diffusion frequencies.
  • titers: Enable annotation of nodes in a tree from the substitution model

3.0.5.dev1 (26 November 2018)

Bug fixes

  • translate: Nucleotide ("nuc") annotation for non-bacterial builds starts at 0 again, not 1, fixing a regression.

Documentation

  • Schemas: Correct coordinate system description for genome start/end annotations.

3.0.4.dev1 (26 November 2018)

Bug fixes

  • validate: Fix regression for gene names containing an asterisk.

Development

  • Fix Travis CI tests which were silently not running.

3.0.3.dev1 (26 November 2018)

Features

  • refine: Add a --clock-std-dev option

  • traits: Add a --sampling-bias-correction option for mugration model

  • validate: Gene names in tree annotations may now contain hyphens. Compatible with Auspice version 1.33.0 and later.

  • All JSON is now emitted with sorted keys, making it easier to diff and run other textual comparisons against output.

Bug fixes

  • filter: Only consider A, T, C, and G when calculating sequence length for the --min-length option.

  • filter: Allow comments in files passed to --exclude.

  • filter: Ignore case when matching trait values against excluded values.

  • Normalize custom geographic names to lower case for consistent matching.

Data

  • Fix typo in geographic entry for netherlands.

  • Schemas: Reconcile naming patterns used in gene definitions and tree annotations.

Development

  • Upgrade TreeTime dependency to 0.5.x and at least 0.5.1.

  • Add an environment.yml file for use with conda env create.

  • Stop testing under Python 2.7 on Travis CI.

3.0.2.dev1 (27 September 2018)

Bug fixes

  • translate: Fix broken --help message

3.0.1.dev1 (27 September 2018)

Features

  • align and tree: The --nthreads option now accepts the special value "auto" to automatically set the number of threads to the number of CPU cores available.

  • Alias augur --version to augur version

Bug fixes

  • tree: The --nthreads option is now respected. Previously all tree builders were ignoring the value and using either 2 threads (RAxML, IQ-TREE) or as many threads as cores (FastTree, if the OpenMP version).

  • translate: Check for and, if necessary pad, nucleotide sequences which aren't a multiple of 3 earlier to avoid errors later.

  • export: Optionally write inferred nucleotide and amino acid sequences (or mutations) to a separate file.

  • export: Omit genes with no amino acid mutations.

  • validate: Allow underscores in gene names.

  • refine: Remove unused --nthreads argument.

  • ancestral, filter, tree, refine: Exit 1 instead of -1 on error.

  • Print the help message, instead of throwing an exception, when augur is run without arguments.

Documentation

  • Briefly describe each command in its --help output and in the global augur --help output.

  • Revamp README to emphasize new, modular augur and make it suitable for inclusion on PyPi.

  • Reconciled conflicting license declarations; augur is AGPLv3 (not MIT) licensed like the rest of Nextstrain.

  • Include URLs for bug reports, the change log, and the source on PyPi.

Data

  • Geographic coordinates added for the Netherlands and the Philippines.

Development

  • Reset the release branch when rewinding a failed local release process.

  • Refactor the augur program and command architecture for improved maintainability.

3.0.0.dev3 (4 September 2018)

Development

  • Use an allowed Topic classifier so we can upload to PyPi

  • Ignore distribution egg-info build files

3.0.0.dev2 (4 September 2018)

Features

  • Export: Add safety checks for optional annotations and geo data

  • Include more lat/longs in the default geo data

Development

  • Add release tooling

  • Document the release process and a few development practices

  • Travis CI: Switch to rebuilding the Docker image only for new releases
