NAME

Bio::Tools::Run::EMBOSSApplication - class for EMBOSS Applications

SYNOPSIS

   use Bio::Factory::EMBOSS;
   # get an EMBOSS application object from the EMBOSS factory
   $factory = Bio::Factory::EMBOSS->new();
   $application = $factory->program('embossversion');
   # run the application with an optional hash containing parameters
   $result = $application->run(); # returns a string or creates a file
   print $result . "\n";
 
   $water = $factory->program('water');
 
   # here is an example of running the application
   # water can compare 1 seq against 1->many sequences
   # in a database using Smith-Waterman
   my $seq_to_test;     # this would have a seq here
   my @seqs_to_check; # this would be a list of seqs to compare 
 
   my $wateroutfile = 'out.water';
   $water->run({-sequencea => $seq_to_test,
                -seqall    => \@seqs_to_check,
                -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
   }
 
 

DESCRIPTION

The EMBOSSApplication class can represent EMBOSS any program. It is created by a Bio::Factory::EMBOSS object.

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

See also Bio::Factory::EMBOSS and Bio::Tools::Run::EMBOSSacd.
