Bio::SearchIO::Writer::HSPTableWriter(3) User Contributed Perl Documentation Bio::SearchIO::Writer::HSPTableWriter(3)

Bio::SearchIO::Writer::HSPTableWriter - Tab-delimited data for Bio::Search::HSP::HSPI objects

    use Bio::SearchIO;
    use Bio::SearchIO::Writer::HSPTableWriter;

    my $in = Bio::SearchIO->new();

    my $writer = Bio::SearchIO::Writer::HSPTableWriter->new();

    my $out = Bio::SearchIO->new( -writer => $writer );

    while ( my $result = $in->next_result() ) {
        $out->write_result($result, ($in->report_count - 1 ? 0 : 1) );
    }

    use Bio::SearchIO;
    use Bio::SearchIO::Writer::HSPTableWriter;

    my $in = Bio::SearchIO->new();

    my $writer = Bio::SearchIO::Writer::HSPTableWriter->new( 
                                  -columns => [qw(
                                                  query_name
                                                  query_length
                                                  hit_name
                                                  hit_length
                                                  rank
                                                  frac_identical_query
                                                  expect
                                                  )]  );

    my $out = Bio::SearchIO->new( -writer => $writer,
                                  -file   => ">searchio.out" );

    while ( my $result = $in->next_result() ) {
        $out->write_result($result, ($in->report_count - 1 ? 0 : 1) );
    }

You can also specify different column labels if you don't want to use the defaults. Do this by specifying a "-labels" hash reference parameter when creating the HSPTableWriter object. The keys of the hash should be the column number (left-most column = 1) for the label(s) you want to specify. Here's an example:

    my $writer = Bio::SearchIO::Writer::HSPTableWriter->new( 
                               -columns => [qw( query_name 
                                                query_length
                                                hit_name
                                                hit_length  )],
                               -labels  => { 1 => 'QUERY_GI',
                                             3 => 'HIT_IDENTIFIER' } );

Bio::SearchIO::Writer::HSPTableWriter generates output at the finest level of granularity for data within a search result. Data for each HSP within each hit in a search result is output in tab-delimited format, one row per HSP.

Here are the columns that can be specified in the "-columns" parameter when creating a HSPTableWriter object. If a "-columns" parameter is not specified, this list, in this order, will be used as the default.

    query_name             # Sequence identifier of the query.
    query_length           # Full length of the query sequence
    hit_name               # Sequence identifier of the hit
    hit_length             # Full length of the hit sequence
    round                  # Round number for hit (PSI-BLAST)
    rank
    expect                 # Expect value for the alignment
    score                  # Score for the alignment (e.g., BLAST score)
    bits                   # Bit score for the alignment
    frac_identical_query   # fraction of identical substitutions in query
    frac_identical_hit     # fraction of identical substitutions in hit
    frac_conserved_query   # fraction of conserved substitutions in query
    frac_conserved_hit     # fraction of conserved substitutions in hit
    length_aln_query       # Length of the aligned portion of the query sequence
    length_aln_hit         # Length of the aligned portion of the hit sequence
    gaps_query             # Number of gap characters in the aligned query sequence
    gaps_hit               # Number of gap characters in the aligned hit sequence
    gaps_total             # Number of gap characters in the aligned query and hit sequences
    start_query            # Starting coordinate of the aligned portion of the query sequence
    end_query              # Ending coordinate of the aligned portion of the query sequence
    start_hit              # Starting coordinate of the aligned portion of the hit sequence
    end_hit                # Ending coordinate of the aligned portion of the hit sequence
    strand_query           # Strand of the aligned query sequence
    strand_hit             # Strand of the aligned hit sequence
    frame                  # Reading frame of the aligned query sequence 
    hit_description        # Full description of the hit sequence
    query_description      # Full description of the query sequence
    frac_identical_total   # fraction of total identical substitutions
    frac_conserved_total   # fraction of total conserved substitutions

For more details about these columns, see the documentation for the corresponding method in Bio::Search::HSP::HSPI.

Figure out the best way to incorporate algorithm-specific score columns. The best route is probably to have algorith-specific subclasses (e.g., BlastHSPTableWriter, FastaHSPTableWriter).

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

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.

    Bio::SearchIO::Writer::HitTableWriter
    Bio::SearchIO::Writer::ResultTableWriter

Note: this method is not intended for direct use. The SearchIO::write_result() method calls it automatically if the writer is hooked up to a SearchIO object as illustrated in the SYNOPSIS section .

 Title     : to_string()
           :
 Usage     : print $writer->to_string( $result_obj, [$include_labels] );
           :
 Argument  : $result_obj = A Bio::Search::Result::ResultI object
           : $include_labels = boolean, if true column labels are included (default: false)
           :
 Returns   : String containing tab-delimited set of data for each HSP
           : in each Hit of the supplied ResultI object. 
           :
 Throws    : n/a

 Title   : end_report
 Usage   : $self->end_report()
 Function: The method to call when ending a report, this is
           mostly for cleanup for formats which require you to 
           have something at the end of the document.  Nothing for
           a text message.
 Returns : string
 Args    : none

 Title   : filter
 Usage   : $writer->filter('hsp', \&hsp_filter);
 Function: Filter out either at HSP,Hit,or Result level
 Returns : none
 Args    : string => data type,
