Export GenomeGraph tracks to a annotation file representation.
This function is still a bit experimental. So far only BED export is supported.
exportTracks(tracks, range, chromosome, file)
tracks |
A list of annotation track objects to be exported into a single BED file. |
range |
A numeric vector or length 2. The genomic range to display when opening the file in a browser. |
chromosome |
The chromosome to display when opening the file in a browser. |
file |
Character, the path to the file to write into. |
FIXME: Need to support WIG exports as well...
The function is called for its side effect of writing to a file.

## export AnnotationTrack to BED file
at <- AnnotationTrack(start=seq(1,10), width=1, chromosome="chr1")
exportTracks(list(at), range=c(1, 10), chromosome="chr1",
file=paste0(tempfile(),".bed"))Please choose more modern alternatives, such as Google Chrome or Mozilla Firefox.
