NEW: Universal Raw DNA Converter π
Instant DNA now includes a built-in universal converter that automatically detects and converts raw DNA data from any major provider:
# Auto-detect format and convert (recommended)
./target/release/instant-dna convert \
--input your_raw_dna_file.txt \
--output your_dna.vcf \
--sample YOUR_NAME \
--stats \
--compress
# Specify format explicitly
./target/release/instant-dna convert \
--input genome_data.txt \
--output converted.vcf \
--sample SAMPLE_001 \
--format 23andme \
--statsβ
23andMe (.txt files from 23andMe)
β
AncestryDNA (.txt files from AncestryDNA)
β
MyHeritage (.csv files from MyHeritage)
β
FamilyTreeDNA (.csv files from FamilyTreeDNA)
β
Generic CSV/TSV (any comma or tab-separated format)
β
Auto-detection (automatically identifies format)
- Smart Auto-Detection: Automatically identifies file format
- Comprehensive Statistics: Shows conversion success rates and SNP counts
- VCF Compression: Optional
.vcf.gzoutput for smaller files - Professional Quality: Generates standard VCF v4.3 format
- Fast Processing: Converts millions of SNPs in seconds
If you prefer using external tools:
# Example conversion using common bioinformatics tools
# (You may need to install these tools separately)
# For 23andMe format:
plink --23file your_23andme_data.txt --recode vcf --out your_dna
# For AncestryDNA format:
plink --file your_ancestry_data --recode vcf --out your_dna
# Compress the VCF file
bgzip your_dna.vcfNEW: Extract DNA at home and manually enter genotype data!
For the ultimate DIY experience, Instant DNA now supports home DNA extraction using basic materials (Q-tips, salt water, dish soap, rubbing alcohol) and manual genotyping entry:
# Load preset SNP markers for DIY analysis
./target/release/instant-dna diy --sample "YourName" --output diy_dna.vcf --load-markers
# Start interactive manual SNP entry session
./target/release/instant-dna diy --sample "YourName" --output diy_dna.vcf --interactiveβ
