pyega3 website

The pyEGA3 download client is a python-based tool for viewing and downloading files from authorized EGA datasets. pyEGA3 uses the EGA Data API and has several key features: Files are transferred over secure https connections and received unencrypted, so no need for decryption after download. Downloads resume from where they left off in the event that the connection is interrupted. pyEGA3 supports file segmenting and parallelized download of segments, improving overall performance. After download completes, file integrity is verified using checksums. pyEGA3 implements the GA4GH-compliant htsget protocol for download of genomic ranges for data files with accompanying index files.
