Jasix
Overview
The Jasix index is aimed at providing TABIX like indexing capabilities for the Nirvana JSON output.
Creating the Jasix index
The Jasix index (that comes in a .jsi) file is generated on-the-fly with Nirvana output. It can also be generated independently by running the Jasix command line utility on the JSON output file. Please note that the Jasix utility can only consume JSON files that follow the Nirvana JSON output format. The following code blocks demonstrate the help menu and index generating functionalities of Jasix.
Example
dotnet Jasix.dll -h
USAGE: dotnet Jasix.dll -i in.json.gz [options]
Indexes a Nirvana annotated JSON file
OPTIONS:
--header, -t print also the header lines
--only-header, -H print only the header lines
--chromosomes, -l list chromosome names
--index, -c create index
--in, -i <VALUE> input
--out, -o <VALUE> compressed output file name (default:console)
--query, -q <VALUE> query range
--section, -s <VALUE> complete section (positions or genes) to output
--help, -h displays the help menu
--version, -v displays the version
dotnet Jasix.dll --index -i input.json.gz

Querying the index
The Jasix query format is chr:start-end. If not provided, it assumes end=start. If only chr is provided, all entries for that chromosome will be provided.
dotnet Jasix.dll -i input.json.gz chrM:5000-7000

}
The default output stream is Console. However, if an output filename is provided, Jasix outputs the results to that file in a bgzip compressed format. The output is always a valid JSON entry. If requested (via -t option) the header of the indexed file will be provided. Multiple queries can be submitted in the same command and the output will contain them within the same "positions" block in order of the submitted queries (Warning: if the queries are out of order, or overlapping, the output will be out or order and intersecting).

Extracting a section
The Nirvana JSON file has three sections: header, positions and genes. Header can be printed using the -H option. If you are interested in only the positions or genes section, you can use the -s or --section option.
dotnet Jasix.dll -i input.json.gz -s genes

"name": "ABCB10",
"omim": [
{
"mimNumber": 605454,
"geneName": "ATP-binding cassette, subfamily B, member 10"

]
},
{
"name": "ABCD3",
"omim": [
{
