Bio::SearchIO::erpin

NAME

Bio::SearchIO::erpin - SearchIO-based ERPIN parser

SYNOPSIS

# do not call this module directly. Use Bio::SearchIO.

DESCRIPTION

This is an experimental SearchIO-based parser for output from the erpin program. It currently parses erpin output for ERPIN versions 4.2.5 and above; older versions may work but will not be supported.

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

APPENDIX

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

new
Title : new
Usage : my $obj = Bio::SearchIO::infernal->new();
Function: Builds a new Bio::SearchIO::infernal object
Returns : Bio::SearchIO::infernal
Args : -fh/-file => cmsearch (infernal) filename
-format => 'erpin'
-algorithm => algorithm (default 'Infernal')
-query_acc => query accession, eg. Rfam accession (default undef)
-hsp_minscore => minimum HSP score cutoff
-version => ERPIN version (not reported in output)

next_result
Title : next_result
Usage : my $hit = $searchio->next_result;
Function: Returns the next Result from a search
Returns : Bio::Search::Result::ResultI object
Args : none

start_element
Title : start_element
Usage : $eventgenerator->start_element
Function: Handles a start element event
Returns : none
Args : hashref with at least 2 keys 'Data' and 'Name'

end_element
Title : start_element
Usage : $eventgenerator->end_element
Function: Handles an end element event
Returns : none
Args : hashref with at least 2 keys, 'Data' and 'Name'

element
Title : element
Usage : $eventhandler->element({'Name' => $name, 'Data' => $str});
Function: Convenience method that calls start_element, characters, end_element
Returns : none
Args : Hash ref with the keys 'Name' and 'Data'

element_hash
Title : element
Usage : $eventhandler->element_hash({'Hsp_hit-from' => $start,
'Hsp_hit-to' => $end,
'Hsp_score' => $lastscore});
Function: Convenience method that takes multiple simple data elements and
maps to appropriate parameters
Returns : none
Args : Hash ref with the mapped key (in %MAPPING) and value

characters
Title : characters
Usage : $eventgenerator->characters($str)
Function: Send a character events
Returns : none
Args : string

within_element
Title : within_element
Usage : if( $eventgenerator->within_element($element) ) {}
Function: Test if we are within a particular element
This is different than 'in' because within can be tested
for a whole block.
Returns : boolean
Args : string element name

in_element
Title : in_element
Usage : if( $eventgenerator->in_element($element) ) {}
Function: Test if we are in a particular element
This is different than 'within' because 'in' only
tests its immediate parent.
Returns : boolean
Args : string element name

start_document
Title : start_document
Usage : $eventgenerator->start_document
Function: Handle a start document event
Returns : none
Args : none

end_document
Title : end_document
Usage : $eventgenerator->end_document
Function: Handles an end document event
Returns : Bio::Search::Result::ResultI object
Args : none

result_count
Title : result_count
Usage : my $count = $searchio->result_count
Function: Returns the number of results we have processed
Returns : integer
Args : none

query_accession
Title : query_accession
Usage : my $acc = $parser->query_accession();
Function: Get/Set query (model) accession; Infernal currently does not output
the accession number (Rfam accession #)
Returns : String (accession)
Args : [optional] String (accession)

hsp_minscore
Title : hsp_minscore
Usage : my $cutoff = $parser->hsp_minscore();
Function: Get/Set min bit score cutoff (for generating Hits/HSPs)
Returns : score (number)
Args : [optional] score (number)

algorithm_version
Title : algorithm_version
Usage : my $ver = $parser->algorithm_version();
Function: Get/Set algorithm version (not defined in RNAMotif output)
Returns : String (accession)
Args : [optional] String (accession)
