    """
    Create a cooler from bins and pixels at the specified URI.

    Because the number of pixels is often very large, the input pixels are
    normally provided as an iterable (e.g., an iterator or generator) of
    DataFrame **chunks** that fit in memory.

    .. versionadded:: 0.8.0

    Parameters
    ----------
    cool_uri : str
        Path to cooler file or URI string. If the file does not exist,
        it will be created.
    bins : pandas.DataFrame
        Segmentation of the chromosomes into genomic bins as a BED-like
        DataFrame with columns ``chrom``, ``start`` and ``end``. May contain
        additional columns.
    pixels : DataFrame, dictionary, or iterable of either
        A table, given as a dataframe or a column-oriented dict, containing
        columns labeled ``bin1_id``, ``bin2_id`` and ``count``, sorted by
        (``bin1_id``, ``bin2_id``). If additional columns are included in the
        pixel table, their names and dtypes must be specified using the
        ``columns`` and ``dtypes`` arguments. For larger input data, an
        **iterable** can be provided that yields the pixel data as a sequence
        of chunks. If the input is a dask DataFrame, it will also be processed
        one chunk at a time.
    columns : sequence of str, optional
        Customize which value columns from the input pixels to store in the
        cooler. Non-standard value columns will be given dtype ``float64``
        unless overriden using the ``dtypes`` argument. If ``None``, we only
        attempt to store a value column named ``"count"``.
    dtypes : dict, optional
        Dictionary mapping column names to dtypes. Can be used to override the
        default dtypes of ``bin1_id``, ``bin2_id`` or ``count`` or assign
        dtypes to custom value columns. Non-standard value columns given in
        ``dtypes`` must also be provided in the ``columns`` argument or they
        will be ignored.
    metadata : dict, optional
        Experiment metadata to store in the file. Must be JSON compatible.
    assembly : str, optional
        Name of genome assembly.
    ordered : bool, optional [default: False]
        If the input chunks of pixels are provided with correct triangularity
        and in ascending order of (``bin1_id``, ``bin2_id``), set this to
        ``True`` to write the cooler in one step.
        If ``False`` (default), we create the cooler in two steps using an
        external sort mechanism. See Notes for more details.
    symmetric_upper : bool, optional [default: True]
        If True, sets the file's storage-mode property to ``symmetric-upper``:
        use this only if the input data references the upper triangle of a
        symmetric matrix! For all other cases, set this option to False.
    mode : {'w' , 'a'}, optional [default: 'w']
        Write mode for the output file. 'a': if the output file exists, append
        the new cooler to it. 'w': if the output file exists, it will be
        truncated. Default is 'w'.

    Other parameters
    ----------------
    mergebuf : int, optional
        Maximum number of records to buffer in memory at any give time during
        the merge step.
    delete_temp : bool, optional
        Whether to delete temporary files when finished.
        Useful for debugging. Default is False.
    temp_dir : str, optional
        Create temporary files in a specified directory instead of the same
        directory as the output file. Pass ``-`` to use the system default.
    max_merge : int, optional
        If merging more than ``max_merge`` chunks, do the merge recursively in
        two passes.
    h5opts : dict, optional
        HDF5 dataset filter options to use (compression, shuffling,
        checksumming, etc.). Default is to use autochunking and GZIP
        compression, level 6.
    lock : multiprocessing.Lock, optional
        Optional lock to control concurrent access to the output file.
    ensure_sorted : bool, optional
        Ensure that each input chunk is properly sorted.
    boundscheck : bool, optional
        Input validation: Check that all bin IDs lie in the expected range.
    dupcheck : bool, optional
        Input validation: Check that no duplicate pixels exist within any chunk.
    triucheck : bool, optional
        Input validation: Check that ``bin1_id`` <= ``bin2_id`` when creating
        coolers in symmetric-upper mode.

    Notes
    -----
    If the pixel chunks are provided in the correct order required for the
    output to be properly sorted, then the cooler can be created in a single
    step by setting ``ordered=True``.

    If not, the cooler is created in two steps via an external sort mechanism.
    In the first pass, the sequence of pixel chunks are processed and sorted in
    memory and saved to temporary coolers. In the second pass, the temporary
    coolers are merged into the output file. This way the individual chunks do
    not need to be provided in any particular order. When ``ordered=False``,
    the following options for the merge step are available: ``mergebuf``,
    ``delete_temp``, ``temp_dir``, ``max_merge``.

    Each chunk of pixels will go through a validation pipeline, which can be
    customized with the following options: ``boundscheck``, ``triucheck``,
    ``dupcheck``, ``ensure_sorted``.
