SYNOPSIS
Example 1: Using the default columns
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) ); }
Example 2: Specifying a subset of columns
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) ); }
Custom Labels
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' } );
DESCRIPTION
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.Available Columns
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.
TODO
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).FEEDBACK

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

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