• BREAKING: Consolidate module-wide errors into a crate-wide error module
• Making bcf::IndexedReader always unpack records to reflect the behaviour of bcf::Reader.
• Adding bcf::errors::Error::FileNotFound and using it.
• Fixes for musl compilation (@brainstorm).
• Improved BCF constants handling (@juliangehring)
• Fixes for tabix reader (@felix-clark, @brainstorm).
• Fixes for BCF handling (@holtgrewe, @tedil).
• Documentation improvements (@vsoch, @brainstorm, @edmundlth).
• BREAKING: Improved, more ergonomic BAM fetch API (@TyberiusPrime, @brainstorm, @tedil).
• BREAKING: Let BamRecordExtensions return iterators instead of vectors (@TyberiusPrime).
• Handle all errors via a unified single thiserror based enum (@landesfeind).
• BREAKING: BAM read API now returns Option (@slazicoicr).

Added

• Support for reading indexed FASTA files (@landesfeind, @pmarks, @brainstorm).
• Support for shared threadpools when reading and writing BAM (@pmarks, @nlhepler).
• Serde support for Cigar strings (@FelixMoelder, @pmarks, @johanneskoester).
• Expose bgzf functionality (@landesfeind).
• Iterator over BAM records using Rc-pointers (@TyberiusPrime, @tedil).
• Ability to obtain pairs of read and genome intervals from BAM (aligned_block_pairs) (@TyberiusPrime, @brainstorm).

Version 0.32.0

Changes

• Method seq_len() of bam::Record is now public.
• Speedup when parsing BAM headers (thanks to @juliangehring).
• Compatibility fixes for older rust versions (thanks to @pmarks and @brainstorm).

Version 0.31.0

• Bam record buffer now returns reference counted (Rc) objects. This makes the API more ergonomic to use.
• Switched to thiserror instead of snafu for error handling.
• Various cleanups and little fixes.

This release breaks parts of the API due to the error handling changes and the difference in the bam record buffer.

Version 0.30.0

• Removed fn header_mut() from bam::Read trait.
• Fixed a major performance regression when reading bam files (issue #195).

Version 0.29.0

Also return u64 for target_len in BAM header.

Version 0.28.0

• Return u64 wherever htslib has migrated to using 64 bit.
• Implement more bio-types (Interval, Locus, Strand).

Version 0.27.0

This release adds various improvements. Moreover, it migrates to htslib 1.10. This is a breaking change, since various data types had to change.

Version 0.26.1

This is a bugfix release. See CHANGELOG.md for details.

Version 0.26 of Rust-Htslib

This release migrates error handling to the beautiful snafu crate, and cleans up the API in many places. Note that this entails breaking changes, for which I would like to apologize in advance.

Version 0.22.0 of Rust-HTSlib

For details see CHANGELOG.md
