Facet

Auto-generated config schema for the current JBrowse release — see the config guide for concepts. Built into JBrowse core. View source.

Example usage

{ type: 'LinearBasicDisplay', facet: 'strand' }
{
  type: 'LinearBasicDisplay',
  facet: { field: 'gene_biotype', domain: ['protein_coding', 'lncRNA'] },
}
{
  type: 'LinearAlignmentsDisplay',
  facet: { field: 'tags.HP', domain: ['1', '2'] },
}

See the Config slots section below for all available configuration fields.

The facet setting of the feature, mark, multi-sample variant and alignments displays: one labelled section of the track per value of a field. A string is the field; the object adds the order.

Config slots

These slots go on a display entry: "displays": [{ "type": "Facet", ... }], or in the track's displayDefaults when this is its default display. Slot types (fileLocation, frozen, ...) are explained in the config slot types reference. Slots a base configuration contributes are listed here too, so this table is the whole surface.

SlotDescription
field
featureField = ''		The feature field each value of which packs its own labelled section of the track: a field name, a dotted path into a structured field (INFO.SVTYPE, a read's tags.HP), a jexl: expression, or strand. A feature with no value stacks last, under field: none. The alignments displays also take a read dimension here: firstOfPairStrand, pairOrientation, splitRead, mapq or mateAssembly. Writing facet: "strand" lands here.
domain
stringArray = []		The values whose sections stack first, in order; the rest follow sorted. Empty stacks every section sorted, and a strand facet forward, reverse, then unstranded (1, -1, 0).
