# TaxidTools - A Python Toolkit for Taxonomy

**taxidTools** is a Python library to handle Taxonomy definitions.

## Highlights

* Load taxonomy defintions for the NCBI's taxdump files
* Prune, filter, and normalize branches
* Save as JSON for later use
* Determine consensus, last common ancestor, or distances
* Retrieve ancestries or list descendants
* Export as Newick trees

## Installation

With `pip`:

```bash
pip install taxidtools
```

With `conda`:

```bash
conda install -c conda-forge taxidtools
```

With `docker`:

```bash
docker pull gregdenay/taxidtools
```

## Quickstart

With the [NCBI's taxdump files](https://ftp.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pub/taxonomy/new_taxdump/) installed locally:

```python
>>> import taxidTools
>>> tax = taxidTools.read_taxdump('nodes.dmp', 'rankedlineage.dmp', 'merged.dmp')
>>> tax.getName('9606')
'Homo sapiens'
>>> lineage = tax.getAncestry('9606')
>>> lineage.filter()
>>> [node.name for node in lineage]
['Homo sapiens', 'Homo', 'Hominidae', 'Primates', 'Mammalia', 'Chordata', 'Metazoa']
>>> tax.lca(['9606', '10090']).name
'Euarchontoglires'
>>> tax.distance('9606', '10090')
18
```
