How to retrieve and save the compartment domain and values in python API

[caragraduate]

Dear there,

I am using the python version of the AB compartments analysis based on the steps https://fan-c.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api/analyse/compartments.html. I have successfully run the line of gc_ev = ab.eigenvector(genome='hg19_chr18_19.fa', force=True). I noticed in the tutorial, after this step are some visualization, but my specific question is how should I save the identified compartment domain location and corresponding value as a .bed file then? I noticed in the command line tools you provide the code for it https://fan-c.readthedocs.io/en/latest/fanc-executable/fanc-analyse-hic/ab_compartments.html but since I prefer the python API for the current project, could you provide more help?

Thank you very much!

When I have this type of problem I usually inspect the code to see how this is done in the command line tools. For example, in this case I think this line has the solution you need.
