NAME

Bio::SearchIO::psl - A parser for PSL output (UCSC)

SYNOPSIS

   use Bio::SearchIO;
   my $parser = Bio::SearchIO->new(-file   => 'file.psl',
                                  -format => 'psl');
   while( my $result = $parser->next_result ) {
   }
 
 

DESCRIPTION

This is a SearchIO driver for PSL format. PSL format is documented here: http://genome.ucsc.edu/goldenPath/help/customTrack.html#PSL

By default it assumes PSL output came from BLAT you can override that by specifying -program_name => 'BLASTZ' when initializing the SearchIO object.

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::psl->new();
  Function: Builds a new Bio::SearchIO::psl object 
  Returns : an instance of Bio::SearchIO::psl
  Args    :
 
 

next_result

  Title   : next_result
  Usage   : my $result = $parser->next_result
  Function: Parse the next result from the data stream
  Returns : L<Bio::Search::Result::ResultI> or undef if no more results
  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   : end_element
  Usage   : $eventgenerator->end_element
  Function: Handles an end element event
  Returns : return value from the associated end_$type event handler
  Args    : hashref with at least 2 keys 'Data' and 'Name'
 
 

element
