Extracting contact matrices from pairs file

[arodel21]

Hello, I am trying to extract the contact matrices from a 5000 bp resolution pairs file following the command

cooler cload pairs \
    -c1 2 -p1 3 -c2 4 -p2 5\
    $CHRSIZES:5000 \
    $AUX.test.nodups.pairs.gz \
    $AUX.test.grcz11.5000.cool

But I get this error

Traceback (most recent call last):

TypeError: 'IOHandles' object is not subscriptable

I think it happens because the pairs file is too big (248MB) because I have managed to get the cool files from smaller files successfully.

Could you please tell me if there is an alternative way of doing this?

Thanks in advance.

I think you're version of cooler is old and out of sync with pandas. Try pip install -U cooler.
