Adding in a Reverse Function

[mkapl]

To complement the current set of functions I've added in a reverse sequence function

Excellent thanks @mkapl

Just out of curiosity, do you have a use case for this function?

BTW -is there any way I can PR to the vs util? On May 18, 2022, at 17:49, Thomas Rich ***@***.***> wrote:  @tnrich approved this pull request. Excellent thanks @mkapl<https://github.com/mkapl> Just out of curiosity, do you have a use case for this function?

@mkapl ya you should be able to once this gets published by making a PR against the vs code extension

@mkapl ok this is landing in [email protected]

Reversing a sequence is often useful when setting up workflows that have many ssDNA components. The DNA construct doesn't actually have a complement strand but it's helpful to quickly visualize if it will complement to another sequence by reversing and aligning by hand.

Additionally – it's helpful when doing some hand aligning if a sequencing alignment has failed and you want to check what is going on by eye.

Sorry to bother you – I see that the command is now in VS code but it does not seem to be functioning and can't figure out a fix myself

[tnrich]

@mkapl whoops must've messed something up. I'll look into a fix for this

[tnrich]

@mkapl looks like the updated code I used for the reverse function got compiled "incorrectly"

this code, which works correctly:

return [...s].reverse().join("");

got compiled into

return [].concat(s).reverse().join("");

which does not work correctly.

I'm reverting to use the slightly more verbose but simpler method you used to reverse the text originally.

Should land in v0.0.12 which I just published so should be available in a few minutes

Yeah - I often hand align individual sequences if a sequencing run looks bad and it’s really handy to be able to quickly reverse the string in addition to RC-ing and complementing. It’s also helpful for when I build some workflows that have some ssDNA as those are sometimes useful to work with the reverse to see how it aligns with a certain sequence.
