CLI command to view exons seems not working

Check the command: scout view exons

that returns just one exon:

{‘_id’: ObjectId(‘5f633f4f582d613b6c72dc65’), ‘build’: ‘37’, ‘chrom’: ‘19’, ‘end’: 58864804, ‘exon_id’: ‘19-58864770-58864804’, ‘hgnc_id’: 5, ‘rank’: 1, ‘start’: 58864770, ‘strand’: -1, ‘transcript’: ‘ENST00000263100’}

This command might be redundant since we already have scout export exons, so check what’s the difference between the 2.

Hi, great that it worked! The view vs export is a bit vague. The first idea was that view where supposed to be used when doing human inspections of stuff in the database, so readable format. The export commands was more for serialising things. Since I guess none of them are used so much one could give it a thought and perhaps merge them.

I think that if we merge them we should still keep the option to query just for the exons of one gene, instead of all exons from all genes.
