Version 0.2.1: February 16, 2022

General:

updated the package for changes in dependencies for the haplotype plots.
add a new function readHaplotypeDb for reading haplotype tables created from createFullHaplotype. For tables downloaded from VDJbase.org, reading the files into R is recommended with the new function.

Backwards Incompatible Changes:

From this version the gene order within plots can be determined by the genes_order variable. The variable receives a vector of the ordered genes. If not supplied the default order for the genes is by the GENE.loc order which can be found in the package using data("GENE.loc").
Hereby, the gene_order variable has been removed.

General:

Backwards Incompatible Changes:

Changed default expected data format from the Change-O data format to the AIRR Rearrangement standard. For example, where functions used the column name V_CALL (Change-O) as the default to identify the field that stored the V gene calls, they now use v_call (AIRR). Scripts that relied on default values (previously, toHap_col=“V_CALL”), will now fail if calls to the functions are not updated to reflect the correct value for the data. If data are in the Change-O format, the current default value toHap_col=“v_call” will fail to identify the column with the V gene calls as the column v_call doesn’t exist. In this case, toHap_col=“V_CALL” needs to be specified in the function call.
For consistency with the style of the new data format default, field names in all other user exposed data structures have been updated to use the same font case style.

General:

Updated dependencies to R >= 3.5.0, dplyr >= 1.0.0, ggplot2 >= 3.2.0, alakazam >= 1.0.0, tigger >= 1.0.0, and tidyr >=1.0.0.

Adapted deletionsByVpooled to infer single chromosome deletion from light chain repertoire.
Added html5 interactive output for deletionHeatmap visualization.
