digest-rs

Rust bindings for the digest C++ library, providing efficient kmer minimizer and syncmer digestion for DNA sequences.

Requirements

• The C++ digest library must be available at $DIGEST_DIR (see build.rs) or installed via conda.

Usage

Add to your Cargo.toml:

[dependencies]
digest-rs = "0.1.0"

Example

use digest_rs::{window_minimizer_rs, modimizer_rs, syncmer_rs};

let sequence = "ACGTACGT";
let k = 4;
let window = 2;
let mod_val = 3;

// Window minimizer
let minimizers = window_minimizer_rs(sequence, k, window)?;

// Modimizer
let modimizers = modimizer_rs(sequence, k, mod_val)?;

// Syncmer
let syncmers = syncmer_rs(sequence, k, window)?;

Each function returns a Result<Vec<u32>, DigestError> with the minimizer positions.

Building

This crate uses a build.rs script to compile the C++ bindings and link against the C++ digest library.
Make sure the C++ library and its dependencies are built and available at the expected paths.
