Bug-fix iteration: closes #98, #99, #100, #101#102
Conversation
The click commands accept --protein_prefix; --var_prefix no longer exists. Example commands in docs/use-cases.md and docs/pgatk-cli.md were stale and failed when copy-pasted. Closes #100
Implementation plans and design scratch notes are kept locally as working artifacts only; they don't belong in the published repo. Files remain on disk and are now gitignored.
Sanger retired the legacy /cosmic/file_download/... endpoint. The new
flow is a two-step API: GET /api/mono/products/v1/downloads/scripted
returns a signed S3 URL (1-hour TTL), which is then fetched without
auth. The downloader is rewritten around this contract.
- Config: replace the v94 per-file URL/filename pairs with a single
`products` list of `path=` values copy-pasteable from the COSMIC
scripted-download UI. Defaults cover v103 / GRCh38: genome-screens
mutations, targeted-screens mutations, gene FASTA, transcripts,
cell-line mutations, cell-line CNA.
- Downloader: build_api_url() constructs the new endpoint URL; the
two-step download parses JSON, follows the signed URL, and extracts
the resulting .tar archive (replaces the old .tar.gz handling).
- Downloader: clear error message when the API returns 200 but the
body is not the expected JSON-with-url - the failure mode reported
in the bug. Distinguish API errors from S3 errors.
- Downloader: tqdm progress bar for the S3 download (large files were
silent before).
- CLI: add -P/--products flag (repeatable) so users can fetch an
arbitrary product without editing YAML, e.g.
pgatk cosmic-downloader -P grch37/cancer_mutation_census/v100/...
- Tests: unit tests for URL construction and base64 auth-token format
(no network).
End-to-end verified with real Sanger credentials: three of the six
default paths (mutations, gene FASTA, cell-line mutations) download
and extract cleanly. The three added afterwards (targeted-screens,
transcripts, CNA) share the same path pattern as the verified ones
and the filenames were taken from the COSMIC UI verbatim.
Closes #98
The default list contained two entries that no longer match modern
Ensembl GTFs: `polymorphic_pseudogene` was deprecated and folded into
other biotypes, and `mRNA` is not an Ensembl biotype at all (it's a
generic GFF feature type used by some non-Ensembl annotations). Three
protein-producing biotypes that exist in current releases were missing.
Removed:
- polymorphic_pseudogene (deprecated)
- mRNA (not an Ensembl biotype)
Added:
- protein_coding_CDS_not_defined (~26k transcripts; coding but CDS
not perfectly annotated, still produces protein)
- protein_coding_LoF (predicted loss-of-function coding transcripts;
still produces a truncated protein)
- translated_processed_pseudogene (pseudogenes that ARE translated;
the "translated_" prefix distinguishes them from regular pseudo-
genes)
Net default list: 14 -> 15 biotypes. YAML config and the in-code
fallback in ensembl.py kept in sync.
Closes #101
Issue #99 reports vcf-to-proteindb taking 12+ hours on chr22-scale VCFs. Root cause: get_features() makes two SQLite queries against the gffutils GTF database per (variant, transcript) pair, with no caching. For typical CSQ-annotated VCFs that's tens of millions of queries per chromosome. Six semantically preserving optimisations, stacked: 1. Memoize get_features() results per transcript id for the duration of one vcf_to_proteindb call. Dominant gain. Micro-benchmark on a real ENSEMBL chr22 transcript shows ~475x speedup on this op (0.094 ms/call SQLite -> 0.0002 ms/call cache hit). For 50M get_features calls per chr22 that's ~78 minutes -> ~10 seconds of pure get_features time. 2. Apply biotype / consequence filters BEFORE the (now-cached) get_features call so rejected transcripts skip the work entirely. 3. Iterate the VCF DataFrame with itertuples(index=False) instead of iterrows(); ~5-10x faster on the outer loop. 4. Parse record.INFO into a dict once per variant instead of two list-comprehensions that each scan the whole INFO string. 5. Cache transcripts_dict[id] (SeqIO.index) lookups per transcript id; avoids repeated fseek+parse on the FASTA for variants that share a transcript. Uses a _MISSING sentinel so known-missing ids skip the disk lookup too. 6. Lazy log formatting in the hot loop -- wrap debug() calls with isEnabledFor(DEBUG) and use %s placeholders so the message string isn't built when DEBUG isn't enabled. Verified end-to-end against the three in-repo pytest tests (test_vcf_to_proteindb, test_vcf_to_proteindb_notannotated, test_vcf_gnomad_to_proteindb). End-to-end run on a 10K-variant 1000 Genomes chr22 VCF + ENSEMBL release 113 chr22 GTF + full cDNA FASTA completes in ~30 seconds (mostly gffutils DB build + bedtools intersect, both one-time costs unrelated to the fix); 43 sequences produced. Behaviour change worth noting: the "feature IDs from VCF not found in FASTA" counter now counts each missing transcript once (cached), not per-variant. The old counter over-counted on repeated lookups of the same missing id. Behaviour, not output, change. Add scripts/benchmark_vcf_to_proteindb.py: one-shot wall-clock timer for re-validating perf on representative data. Not used by CI. Closes #99

cosmic_downloader.py: tarfile.extractall on COSMIC archives is now wrapped in _safe_extract_tar(), which validates each member against the destination directory before extraction. Rejects entries that would escape the target via absolute path, .. traversal, or unsafe symlink/hardlink targets (CVE-2007-4559 family). COSMIC archives are trusted in practice but defence-in-depth costs nothing and silences the static-analysis warning. ensembl.py: add blank line before _FeatureCache docstring (D203). D213 ("multi-line docstring summary on second line") not addressed - it conflicts with D212 ("on the first line"), which the codebase already follows throughout. Standard modern Python style.

…yle)
Codacy's default pydocstyle config has both D203 ("one blank line
before class docstring") and D211 ("no blank lines before class
docstring") enabled. These rules contradict each other; the codebase
follows D203. Likewise, D213 ("multi-line summary on second line")
conflicts with D212 ("on the first line"), which is the codebase's
established convention.
Add `add-ignore = ["D211", "D213"]` to silence the false positives.
The pydocstyle settings in pyproject.toml in 2b467a5 didn't help - Codacy runs an older pydocstyle that only reads its native config files (setup.cfg, .pydocstyle, .pydocstyle.ini, tox.ini), not pyproject.toml's `[tool.pydocstyle]` section. Add `.pydocstyle` with the same `add-ignore = D211,D213` and a `.codacy.yaml` that sets the same patterns at the Codacy engine level. Also tighten _safe_extract_tar to pass the validated member list to extractall() explicitly (members=safe_members). Functionally identical, but makes the contract obvious to readers (and the static analyser): only validated members are extracted. The `# nosec B202` comment marks the deliberate suppression for any Bandit-style scanner that still flags extractall calls. No source-code behaviour change.

Real issues fixed: - test_cosmic_downloader.py: remove unused `import os` (F401). - cosmic_downloader.py: rewrite _safe_extract_tar docstring with proper summary/body split (single-period summary line + blank line before body), fixes D205 and D415. - cosmic_downloader.py: add explicit type hint `safe_members: list[tarfile.TarInfo]` on the validated-members list, and add a clear comment at the extractall() call site explaining what was validated. Helps reviewers (and static analysers that can follow type hints) confirm the safety contract. Codacy/Bandit config: - setup.cfg [bandit]: skip B101 entirely (B101 fires on every pytest `assert`, which is a false positive because pytest depends on assert rewriting). Also document the B202 (tarfile.extractall) suppression at the call site. - setup.cfg [pydocstyle]: same `add-ignore = D211,D213` as the existing .pydocstyle + pyproject.toml. setup.cfg is the most universally-read pydocstyle config location across versions. Remaining D211 / D213 noise on the PR cannot be fixed in code - they are mutually-exclusive pydocstyle rules (D211 vs D203, D213 vs D212) and the codebase has to follow one of each pair. The Codacy engine enables both halves of each pair by default and appears to ignore local config files. Disable D211 and D213 in the Codacy repository settings UI (Repository -> Settings -> Code patterns -> pydocstyle) to silence them globally.
- Drop "_FeatureCache.put" eviction comment that incorrectly claimed random eviction (the loop actually drops the first 1/5 of insertion order). One-line loop is self-explanatory without commentary. - Drop "see Task 5" dangling reference in seq_cache declaration; the task lived in a now-gitignored implementation plan and means nothing to a future reader. - Collapse two-line "Parse INFO once" comment to one line; keep the WHY (avoids repeated scans) and drop the WHAT (variable name and loop already say it). - Collapse the two filter-block comments into a single rationale line explaining why the filters run before get_features().
Codebase-wide cleanup pass: drop comments that restate well-named code, stale task/PR/issue references that have rotted, orphan commented-out code, narrative step-trackers, and mid-file author stamps. Preserved all docstrings, workaround notes, domain-knowledge comments, and substantive WHY rationale. No behaviour change.
Five issues from the Copilot review, fixed: 1. seq_cache type annotation: changed from `dict[str, tuple]` to `dict[str, Optional[tuple]]` to reflect that we store None as the "known-missing transcript" marker alongside (ref_seq, desc) tuples. Added a comment explaining the _MISSING sentinel pattern. 2. cosmic_downloader.py: redact the presigned S3 URL when logging. The download URL embeds a short-lived AWS signature/credentials in its query string; even with a 1-hour TTL it can leak into log aggregators. Log only the path component. 3. commands/cosmic_downloader.py: rewrite the `--url_file` help text. The flag used to write a direct download URL; after the v103 API migration it writes the SCRIPTED-DOWNLOAD API URL (step 1, not the signed S3 URL). The help now describes the actual TSV format and the indirection. 4. tests/test_cosmic_downloader.py: rewrite module docstring to describe what the tests actually check (one URL pattern + the token format), not the stale "four product API URLs" claim. 5. cosmic_downloader.py: fix the `output_directory` config-lookup bug. `get_configuration_default_params` only searched under `cosmic_data.cosmic_server.<var>`, so the `output_directory` field at `cosmic_data.<var>` (top level) in cosmic_config.yaml was silently ignored - the service always fell back to the hardcoded `./database_cosmic/`. Now check the top level too, so the YAML value takes effect. Pre-existing bug, surfaced by the Copilot review.
- removed .gz from file names in the docs since ensembl download uncopmress files after downloading: `.gtf.gz` to `.gtf` and `.vcf.gz` to `.vcf` in multiple commands for consistency. - Updated the `include_biotypes` for pseudogenes adding: `unitary_pseudogene` and `rRNA_pseudogene`. - Renamed references from `lincRNA` to `lncRNA` throughout the documentation for accuracy. - update canonical biotypes to only keep those that have CDS similar to the reference.
…r organization and clarity. - Added a new section for 'Putative proteins (three-frame)' with example commands. - Updated input commands to include the new putative proteins in relevant workflows. - Enhanced descriptions for condition-specific databases and cancer-type specific databases to improve understanding.
…ates - Improved handling of deletion-insertion (delins) mutations with better validation and making sure to skip intronic and UTR offsets. - Added support for tandem duplication (dup) mutations, allowing for accurate sequence reconstruction. - Updated mutation type checks to include additional HGVS terms for missense, nonsense, and in-frame insertions/deletions. - Refined the required columns in the CosmicMutantExport input to align with updated naming conventions. Additionally, added a new 'Validations' section in the documentation for clarity on module correctness, currently only covers COSMIC mutation translation based on results in tests/test_variant_types_hgvs.py.
- Updated input file names and parameters in the use cases to reflect the new COSMIC v103 format. - Introduced the `--clinical_sample_file` option to allow mapping of `COSMIC_PHENOTYPE_ID` to `PRIMARY_SITE` for filtering. - Enhanced the `CancerGenomesService` to utilize the classification file for phenotype mapping, improving mutation filtering based on tissue type. - Adjusted documentation to clarify the new data model and integration tests for COSMIC v103. - Updated test cases to align with the new schema and ensure accurate output generation.
