Hi,

I am still trying to get beadarray's readIllumina() working with recently acquired data from HT-12 v4 beadchips and using a sample sheet. No matter what I was trying in that sample sheet, I always got:

Error in analyseDirectory(dir = x, sectionNames = as.character(dirs[[x]]),  : 
  Directory does not exist.

So I started to debug the readIllumina() function and noticed that it is truncating the chip's identifier, in turn looking for the wrong directories.

Googling I found this document: https://support.illumina.com/bulletins/2016/10/important-information-about-using-digit-beadchip-barcodes-in-genomestudio-sample-sheets.html

Apparently Illumina is using longer identifiers since last October which breaks beadarray's handling of samplesheets and in turn prevents reading data!

I can provide sample files for assistance in fixing this issue, please get in touch and I'll send them along.

Thank you very much & greetings from Heidelberg

Simon

I looked at readIllumina.R in more detail and it seems that the condition for the if statement in line 82 always evaluates to FALSE due to misplaced parentheses? Currently it's written as:

  if(all(nchar(allSections))>10){    

      chips <- unique(as.character(substr(allSections,1,nchar(allSections)-2)))
      
      dirs <- lapply(chips, function(x) sectionNames[which(substr(sectionNames,1,nchar(sectionNames)-2) == x)])
      
      }
      else {
        chips <- unique(as.character(strtrim(allSections, 10)))
        
        dirs <- lapply(chips, function(x) sectionNames[which(strtrim(sectionNames, 10) == x)])
        
      }

but I guess that should rather be if(all(nchar(allSections)>10)) !

I will test this change tomorrow and will report back. :-)

Hi Simon,

So sorry for taking so long to get around to this. Did fixing the misplaced parentheses work for you?

I'm afraid I don't have access to data where the chip IDs are 12 digits. If you could share some with me I would be able to test the code.

Regards,

Mark

Hi Mark,

thanks for your reply!

I managed to get it working - at least as long as I don't specify useImages in readIllumina().

I had to change summarize() as well, the attached diffs work for my dataset (see below), though I can't say anything about backward compatibility with older, shorter chip IDs.

One thing that is still not working is using the TIFFs directly.

Diff for summarize:

(This is just for one chip due to space constraints here in the commenting system, chips range from A to L, of course)

I think it's interesting that there are XMLs for a red channel which is AFAIR not present on Illumina's HT12 chips. I had to remove them from the directory, otherwise beadarray gets confused and tries to read 2-channel data.
