Convert Complete Genomics Data to BAM File

Complete Genomics provides cgatools as a program suite to help manage the data they produce for investigators.  Although still in its beta form, cgatools does provide some functionality for converting evidence dnbs files (.tsv.bz2) to .bam format.  Below is a script that does so, the only caveat being that I can't seem to get the samtools depth command to work with the generated .bam files.


Here are links to documentation and a handy command reference for cgatools.
