pybedtools.contrib.plotting.TrackCollection¶

class pybedtools.contrib.plotting.TrackCollection(config, yheight=1, figsize=None, padding=0.1)[source]¶

__init__(config, yheight=1, figsize=None, padding=0.1)[source]¶

Handles multiple tracks on the same figure.

Parameters:

config –
A list of tuples that configures tracks.

Each tuple contains a filename, BedTool object, or other iterable of pybedtools.Interval objects and a dictionary of keyword args that will be used to create a corresponding Track object, e.g.:
```
[
    ('a.bed',
        dict(color='r', alpha=0.5, label='a')),
    (BedTool('a.bed').intersect('b.bed'),
        dict(color='g', label='b')),
]
```
In this dictionary, do not specify ybase, since that will be handled for you. Also do not specify yheight in these dictionaries – yheight should be provided as a separate kwarg to so that the padding kwarg works correctly.
figsize – Figure size tuple of (width, height), in inches.
padding – Amount of padding to place in between tracks, as a fraction of yheight

Methods

`__init__`(config[, yheight, figsize, padding])	Handles multiple tracks on the same figure.
`plot`([ax])	If `ax` is None, create a new figure.
