NAME

Bio::Phylo::Treedrawer - An object-oriented facade for drawing trees.

SYNOPSIS

use Bio::Phylo::IO 'parse';
use Bio::Phylo::Treedrawer;

my $string = '((A:1,B:2)n1:3,C:4)n2:0;';
my $tree = parse( -format => 'newick', -string => $string )->first;

my $treedrawer = Bio::Phylo::Treedrawer->new(
   -width  => 800,
   -height => 600,
   -shape  => 'CURVY', # curvogram
   -mode   => 'PHYLO', # cladogram
   -format => 'SVG'
);

$treedrawer->set_scale_options(
   -width => '100%',
   -major => '10%', # major cross hatch interval
   -minor => '2%',  # minor cross hatch interval
   -label => 'MYA',
);

$treedrawer->set_tree($tree);
print $treedrawer->draw;

DESCRIPTION

This module prepares a tree object for drawing (calculating coordinates for nodes) and calls the appropriate format-specific drawer.
