# TACT - Taxonomy addition for complete trees

[![PyPI](https://img.shields.io/pypi/v/tact.svg)](https://pypi.org/project/tact/)
[![Build status](https://github.com/jonchang/tact/workflows/Python%20package/badge.svg)](https://github.com/jonchang/tact/actions)

Adds tips to a backbone phylogeny using taxonomy simulated with birth-death models

# Installation

TACT requires Python 3. When possible, we recommend using the PyPy 3 implementation as it can significantly speed up TACT analyses, particularly on large datasets. In addition, TACT depends on the click, DendroPy, NumPy, and SciPy packages.

## Homebrew

Using Homebrew is the recommended way to install TACT. [Install Homebrew on macOS](https://brew.sh) or [Install Homebrew on Linux or Windows 10](https://docs.brew.sh/Homebrew-on-Linux). Once Homebrew has been installed, run

    brew install jonchang/biology/tact

## pipx

If you are unable or unwilling to use Homebrew, the next recommended way to install TACT is via `pipx`. [Install `pipx`](https://github.com/pipxproject/pipx#install-pipx), then run:

    pipx install tact

## Other

Other ways of installing TACT, including unpacking the tarball somewhere or directly using `pip`, are neither supported nor recommended.

# Example

Files used are in the [examples](https://github.com/jonchang/tact/tree/master/examples) folder.

```console
curl -LO https://raw.githubusercontent.com/jonchang/tact/master/examples/Carangaria.csv
curl -LO https://raw.githubusercontent.com/jonchang/tact/master/examples/Carangaria.tre
```

Build a taxonomic tree using the provided CSV file. Run `tact_build_taxonomic_tree --help` to see the required format for this file.

```console
$ tact_build_taxonomic_tree Carangaria.csv --output Carangaria.taxonomy.tre
Output written to: Carangaria.taxonomy.tre
```

`Carangaria.taxonomy.tre` now contains a Newick phylogeny with many polytomies and named nodes indicating relevant taxonomic ranks. Now run the TACT stochastic polytomy resolver algorithm in conjunction with the backbone phylogeny `Caragaria.tre`.

```console
$ tact_add_taxa --backbone Carangaria.tre --taxonomy Carangaria.taxonomy.tre --output Carangaria.tacted --verbose --verbose
Rates  [####################################]  226/226
TACT  [####################################]  642/642  Carangaria
```

There will be several files created with the prefix `Carangaria.tacted`. These include `newick.tre` and `nexus.tre` (your primary output in the form of Newick and NEXUS format phylogenies), `rates.csv` (estimated diversification rates on the backbone phylogeny), and `log.txt` (extremely verbose output on what TACT is doing and why).

You should check the TACT results now for any issues:

```console
$ tact_check_results Carangaria.tacted.newick.tre --backbone Carangaria.tre --taxonomy Carangaria.taxonomy.tre > checkresults.csv
```

Open up `checkresults.csv` in your favorite spreadsheet viewer and check the `warnings` column for any issues.

# Contributing

Development on TACT uses [`poetry`](https://poetry.eustace.io/). Simply clone the repository and install:

```console
$ git clone https://github.com/jonchang/tact.git
$ cd tact
$ poetry install
```

When releasing a new version of tact, run its tests and bump its revision like so:

```console
$ poetry run pytest # optionally with --script-launch-mode=subprocess
$ poetry version patch # or minor, etc.
$ git commit -p
$ git tag VERSION
$ git push
```

A GitHub Actions workflow will build and publish the new version on PyPI.

TACT owes its existence to much foundational work in the area of stochastic polytomy resolution, namely PASTIS and CorSiM.
