Bio::Factory::EMBOSS(3) User Contributed Perl Documentation Bio::Factory::EMBOSS(3)

Bio::Factory::EMBOSS - EMBOSS application factory class

  # Get an EMBOSS factory
  use Bio::Factory::EMBOSS;
  $f = Bio::Factory::EMBOSS -> new();
  # Get an EMBOSS application  object from the factory
  $water = $f->program('water') || die "Program not found!\n";

  # Here is an example of running the application - water can
  # compare 1 sequence against 1 or more sequences using Smith-Waterman.
  # Pass a Sequence object and a reference to an array of objects.

  my $wateroutfile = 'out.water';
  $water->run({-asequence => $seq_object,
               -bsequence => \@seq_objects,
               -gapopen   => '10.0',
               -gapextend => '0.5',
               -outfile   => $wateroutfile});

  # Now you might want to get the alignment
  use Bio::AlignIO;
  my $alnin = Bio::AlignIO->new(-format => 'emboss',
                                -file   => $wateroutfile);

  while ( my $aln = $alnin->next_aln ) {
      # process the alignment -- these will be Bio::SimpleAlign objects
  }

The EMBOSS factory class encapsulates access to EMBOSS programs. A factory object allows creation of only known applications.

If you want to check command line options before sending them to the program set $prog->verbose to positive integer. The value is passed on to programs objects and the ADC description of the available command line options is parsed and compared to input.
