rich-msa
A simple module to render colorful Multiple Sequence Alignment with rich
in the terminal.
🔧
Installing
Install the rich-msa
package directly from PyPi which hosts universal wheels that can be installed with pip
:
$ pip install rich-msa
💡
Example
Use Biopython to load a MSA from an aligned FASTA file, and render it to the terminal:
import Bio.AlignIO
import rich
from rich_msa import RichAlignment
msa = Bio.AlignIO.read("tests/data/swissprot-halorhodopsin.muscle.afa", "fasta")
viewer = RichAlignment(
names=[record.id for record in msa],
sequences=[str(record.seq) for record in msa],
)
panel = rich.panel.Panel(viewer, title="swissprot-halorhodopsin.muscle.afa")
rich.print(panel)
You should get an output similar to the following picture, scaled to your terminal width:

Command-Line
If you have the rich-msa
library installed from PyPI, you can use it directly to view any alignment file, provided you have Biopython installed:
$ python -m rich_msa -i tests/data/swissprot-halorhodopsin.muscle.afa
Use the -f
flag to change the file format from aligned FASTA (default) to any alignment format supported by Biopython.
