AlphaPeel is a software package for calling, phasing, and imputing genotype and sequence data in pedigree populations. This program implements single-locus peeling, multi-locus peeling, and hybrid peeling. A complete description of these methods is given in the suggested citation:

- Python 3
- NumPy
- Numba
AlphaPeel is available on PyPI:
pip install AlphaPeel
Wheel distribution and source distribution are both available on PyPI.
If you want to build the wheels yourself, we require an installation of Python 3 and you need to fork and clone the repository to your local directory first (see user guide)
Run the following to build the wheel distribution and the source distribution of the package.
First, create the virtual environment:
python3 -m venv AlphaPeel_env
Next, activate the environment:
source AlphaPeel_env/bin/activate
Install build:
python3 -m pip install --upgrade build
Build the distribution:
python3 -m build
Now, the distributions of AlphaPeel should be available in dist/.
Finally, deactivate the environment:
deactivate
