exportSignals {NADfinder} | R Documentation

## Output signals for visualization

### Description

Output signals to bedgraph, bed, wig, etc, for track viewer

### Usage

    exportSignals(dat, assayName, colName, con, format = "bedGraph", ...)

### Arguments

`dat` | An object of GRanges, or RangedSummarizedExperiment with assays of raw counts, ratios, background correct ratios, smoothed ratios and z-scores. It should be an element of output of smoothRatiosByChromosome
`assayName` | character(1). Assay name for RangedSummarizedExperiment
`colName` | character(1). Column name of metadata of dat or assay of dat for coverage weight, see coverage, RangedSummarizedExperiment.
`con` | The connection to which data is saved. If this is a character vector, it is assumed to be a filename and a corresponding file connection is created and then closed after exporting the object. If missing, a SimpleRleList will be returned.
`format` | The format of the output. see export.
`...` | Parameters to be passed to export

### Value

If con is missing, a SimpleRleList will be returned. Otherwise, nothing is returned.

### Examples

    gr <- GRanges("chr1", IRanges(seq_len(100), 201:300), reads=rep(1, 100))
    myTrackLine <- new("TrackLine", name="my track",
                        description="description of my track",
                        color=col2rgb("red")[, 1],
                        visibility="full")
    exportSignals(gr, colName="reads",
                  con="test.bedGraph", trackLine=myTrackLine)
    data(triplicate.count)
    exportSignals(triplicate.count, "counts",
                  "G18.subsampled.srt.bam", "test.bw", format="bigWig")
