NAME

Bio::Tools::Primer3Redux::Result

SYNOPSIS

# parse a Primer3 report, and get Bio::Tools::Primer3Redux::Result
while (my $result = $parser->next_result) {
    say $result->num_primer_pairs;
    my $pair = $result->next_primer_pair;

    my ($fp, $rp) = ($pair->forward_primer, $pair->reverse_primer);

    say $fp->seq->seq;
    say $rp->seq->seq;
}

DESCRIPTION

This is a simple holder class for Primer3 sequence results. The sequence used by default is the one returned in the Primer3 results, but one can pass in a (more-SeqFeature/Annotation-rich) version as a Bio::Seq using attach_seq() (see below for more on this).

This parser will attach any lazily-generated features to that Bio::Seq object. The sequence can be retrieved via get_seq() at any point, such as prior to the end of a parse). To retrieve a sequence guaranteed to have all Primer/PrimerPair data attached, use get_processed_seq(). Switching seqs will cause a new batch of features to be generated and attached.

NAME

Bio::Tools::Primer3Redux::Result - Result class for Primer3 data

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
Function: Builds a new Bio::Tools::Primer3::Result object
Returns : an instance of Bio::Tools::Primer3::Result
Args    :

attach_seq

Title    : attach_seq
Usage    : $obj->attach_seq
Function :
Returns  : Bio::SeqI
Args     : Bio::SeqI (warning: may or may not have primers attached)
Note     : calling this method resets the feature iterators to prevent (for
           instance) issues with references

get_seq

Title    : get_seq
Usage    : $obj->get_seq
Function :
Returns  :
Args     :

get_processed_seq

Title    : get_processed_seq
Usage    : $obj->get_processed_seq
Function :
Returns  :
Args     :
Note     : unlike get_seq(), this guarantees getting back the full
           sequence with attached Primer/PrimerPair SeqFeatureI

num_primer_pairs

Title    : num_primer_pairs
Usage    : $obj->num_primer_pairs
Function :
Returns  :
Args     :

next_left_primer

Title    : next_left_primer
Usage    : $obj->next_left_primer
Function :
Returns  :
Args     :

next_right_primer

Title    : next_right_primer
Usage    : $obj->next_right_primer
Function :
Returns  :
Args     :

next_internal_oligo

Title    : next_internal_oligo
Usage    : $obj->next_internal_oligo
Function :
Returns  :
Args     :

next_primer_pair

Title    : next_primer_pair
Usage    : $obj->next_primer_pair
Function :
Returns  :
Args     :

persistent_data

Title    : persistent_data
Usage    : $obj->persistent_data
Function :
Returns  :
Args     :

run_parameters

Title    : run_parameters
Usage    : $obj->run_parameters
Function :
Returns  :
Args     :

run_parameter

Title    : run_parameter
Usage    : $obj->run_parameter('FOO')
Function :
Returns  :
Args     :

rewind

Title    : rewind
Usage    : $obj->rewind('primer_pair')
Function :
Returns  :
Args     :
