NAME¶

Bio::SearchIO::Writer::TextResultWriter - Object to implement writing a Bio::Search::ResultI in Text.

SYNOPSIS¶

  use Bio::SearchIO;
  use Bio::SearchIO::Writer::TextResultWriter;
  my $in = Bio::SearchIO->new(-format => 'blast',
                             -file   => shift @ARGV);
  my $writer = Bio::SearchIO::Writer::TextResultWriter->new();
  my $out = Bio::SearchIO->new(-writer => $writer);
  $out->write_result($in->next_result);

DESCRIPTION¶

This object implements the SearchWriterI interface which will produce a set of Text for a specific Bio::Search::Report::ReportI interface.

You can also provide the argument -filters => \%hash to filter the at the hsp, hit, or result level. %hash is an associative array which contains any or all of the keys (HSP, HIT, RESULT). The values pointed to by these keys would be references to a subroutine which expects to be passed an object - one of Bio::Search::HSP::HSPI, Bio::Search::Hit::HitI, and Bio::Search::Result::ResultI respectively. Each function needs to return a boolean value as to whether or not the passed element should be included in the output report - true if it is to be included, false if it to be omitted.

For example to filter on sequences in the database which are too short for your criteria you would do the following.

Define a hit filter method

  sub hit_filter { 
      my $hit = shift;
      return $hit->length E<gt> 100; # test if length of the hit sequence
                                     # long enough    
  }
  my $writer = Bio::SearchIO::Writer::TextResultWriter->new(
       -filters => { 'HIT' =E<gt> \&hit_filter }  
      );

Another example would be to filter HSPs on percent identity, let's only include HSPs which are 75% identical or better.

   sub hsp_filter {
       my $hsp = shift;
       return $hsp->percent_identity E<gt> 75;
   }
   my $writer = Bio::SearchIO::Writer::TextResultWriter->new(
       -filters => { 'HSP' =E<gt> \&hsp_filter }  
      );

See Bio::SearchIO::SearchWriterI for more info on the filter method.

This module will use the module Text::Wrap if it is installed to wrap the Query description line. If you do not have Text::Wrap installed this module will work fine but you won't have the Query line wrapped. You will see a warning about this when you first instantiate a TextResultWriter - to avoid these warnings from showing up, simply set the verbosity upon initialization to -1 like this: my $writer = new Bio::SearchIO::Writer::TextResultWriter(-verbose => -1);

FEEDBACK¶

Mailing Lists¶

User feedback is an integral part of the evolution of this and other Bioperl modules. Send your comments and suggestions preferably to the Bioperl mailing list. Your participation is much appreciated.

Support¶

Please direct usage questions or support issues to the mailing list:

bioperl-l@bioperl.org

rather than to the module maintainer directly. Many experienced and reponsive experts will be able look at the problem and quickly address it. Please include a thorough description of the problem with code and data examples if at all possible.

APPENDIX¶

The rest of the documentation details each of the object methods. Internal methods are usually preceded with a _

new¶

           which will expect to get a Hit,HSP, Result object respectively
           -no_wublastlinks => boolean. Do not display WU-BLAST lines even if 
                               they are parsed out
                               Links = (1)

to_string¶

 Purpose   : Produces data for each Search::Result::ResultI in a string.
           : This is an abstract method. For some useful implementations,
           : see ResultTableWriter.pm, HitTableWriter.pm, 
           : and HSPTableWriter.pm.
 Usage     : print $writer->to_string( $result_obj, @args );
 Argument  : $result_obj = A Bio::Search::Result::ResultI object
           : @args = any additional arguments used by your implementation.
