NAME

Bio::SearchIO::Writer::TextResultWriter - Object to implement writing a Bio::Search::ResultI in Text.

SYNOPSIS

  use Bio::SearchIO;
  use Bio::SearchIO::Writer::TextResultWriter;

  my $in = new Bio::SearchIO(-format => 'blast',
			     -file   => shift @ARGV);

  my $writer = new Bio::SearchIO::Writer::TextResultWriter();
  my $out = new Bio::SearchIO(-writer => $writer);
  $out->write_result($in->next_result);

DESCRIPTION

This object implements the SearchWriterI interface which will produce a set of Text for a specific Bio::Search::Report::ReportI interface.

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 = new Bio::SearchIO::Writer::TextResultWriter();
Function: Builds a new Bio::SearchIO::Writer::TextResultWriter object 
Returns : Bio::SearchIO::Writer::TextResultWriter
Args    :

to_string

Purpose   : Produces data for each Search::Result::ResultI in a string.
          : This is an abstract method. For some useful implementations,
          : see ResultTableWriter.pm, HitTableWriter.pm, 
          : and HSPTableWriter.pm.
Usage     : print $writer->to_string( $result_obj, @args );
Argument  : $result_obj = A Bio::Search::Result::ResultI object
          : @args = any additional arguments used by your implementation.
Returns   : String containing data for each search Result or any of its
          : sub-objects (Hits and HSPs).
Throws    : n/a

id_parser

Title   : id_parser
Usage   : $index->id_parser( CODE )
Function: Stores or returns the code used by record_id to
          parse the ID for record from a string.  Useful
          for (for instance) specifying a different
          parser for different flavours of FASTA file. 
          Returns \&default_id_parser (see below) if not
          set. If you supply your own id_parser
          subroutine, then it should expect a fasta
          description line.  An entry will be added to
          the index for each string in the list returned.
Example : $index->id_parser( \&my_id_parser )
Returns : ref to CODE if called without arguments
Args    : CODE

default_id_parser

Title   : default_id_parser
Usage   : $id = default_id_parser( $header )
Function: The default Fasta ID parser for Fasta.pm
          Returns $1 from applying the regexp /^>\s*(\S+)/
          to $header.
Returns : ID string
Args    : a fasta header line string

algorithm_reference

Title   : algorithm_reference
Usage   : my $reference = $writer->algorithm_reference($result);
Function: Returns the appropriate Bibliographic reference for the 
          algorithm format being produced
Returns : String
Args    : L<Bio::Search::Result::ResultI> to reference

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
