=head1 NAME
Bio::Structure::IO - Handler for Structure Formats
=head1 SYNOPSIS
use Bio::Structure::IO;
$in = Bio::Structure::IO->new(-file => "inputfilename" , '-format' => 'pdb');
$out = Bio::Structure::IO->new(-file => ">outputfilename" , '-format' => 'pdb');
# note: we quote -format to keep older perl's from complaining.
while ( my $struc = $in->next_structure() ) {
$out->write_structure($struc);
}
now, to actually get at the structure object, use the standard Bio::Structure
methods (look at L<Bio::Structure> if you don't know what they are)
use Bio::Structure::IO;
$in = Bio::Structure::IO->new(-file => "inputfilename" , '-format' => 'pdb');
while ( my $struc = $in->next_structure() ) {
print "Structure ",$struc->id," number of models: ",scalar $struc->model,"\n";
}
=head1 DESCRIPTION
[ The following description is a copy-paste from the Bio::SeqIO description.
This is not surprising as the code is also mostly a copy. ]
Bio::Structure::IO is a handler module for the formats in the Structure::IO set
(eg, Bio::Structure::IO::pdb). It is the officially sanctioned way of getting at
the format objects, which most people should use.
The Bio::Structure::IO system can be thought of like biological file handles.
They are attached to filehandles with smart formatting rules (eg, PDB format)
and can either read or write structure objects (Bio::Structure objects, or
more correctly, Bio::Structure::StructureI implementing objects, of which
Bio::Structure is one such object). If you want to know what to do with a
Bio::Structure object, read L<Bio::Structure>
The idea is that you request a stream object for a particular format.
All the stream objects have a notion of an internal file that is read
from or written to. A particular Structure::IO object instance is configured
for either input or output. A specific example of a stream object is
the Bio::Structure::IO::pdb object.
Each stream object has functions
$stream->next_structure();
and
$stream->write_structure($struc);
also
$stream->type() # returns 'INPUT' or 'OUTPUT'
As an added bonus, you can recover a filehandle that is tied to the
Structure::IOIO object, allowing you to use the standard E<lt>E<gt> and print operations
to read and write structure::IOuence objects:
use Bio::Structure::IO;
$stream = Bio::Structure::IO->newFh(-format => 'pdb'); # read from standard input
while ( $structure = <$stream> ) {
# do something with $structure
}
and
print $stream $structure; # when stream is in output mode
=head1 CONSTRUCTORS
=head2 Bio::Structure::IO-E<gt>new()
$stream = Bio::Structure::IO->new(-file => 'filename', -format=>$format);
$stream = Bio::Structure::IO->new(-fh => \*FILEHANDLE, -format=>$format);
$stream = Bio::Structure::IO->new(-format => $format);
The new() class method constructs a new Bio::Structure::IO object. The
returned object can be used to retrieve or print Bio::Structure objects.
new() accepts the following parameters:
=over 4
=item -file
A file path to be opened for reading or writing. The usual Perl
conventions apply:
'file' # open file for reading
'>file' # open file for writing
'>>file' # open file for appending
'+<file' # open file read/write
'command |' # open a pipe from the command
'| command' # open a pipe to the command
=item -fh
You may provide new() with a previously-opened filehandle. For
example, to read from STDIN:
$strucIO = Bio::Structure::IO->new(-fh => \*STDIN);
Note that you must pass filehandles as references to globs.
If neither a filehandle nor a filename is specified, then the module
will read from the @ARGV array or STDIN, using the familiar E<lt>E<gt>
semantics.
A string filehandle is handy if you want to modify the output in the
memory, before printing it out. The following program reads in EMBL
formatted entries from a file and prints them out in fasta format with
some HTML tags:
[ not relevant for Bio::Structure::IO as only one format is supported
at the moment ]
use Bio::SeqIO;
use IO::String;
my $in = Bio::SeqIO->new('-file' => "emblfile" ,
'-format' => 'EMBL');
while ( my $seq = $in->next_seq() ) {
# the output handle is reset for every file
my $stringio = IO::String->new($string);
my $out = Bio::SeqIO->new('-fh' => $stringio,
'-format' => 'fasta');
# output goes into $string
$out->write_seq($seq);
# modify $string
$string =~ s|(>)(\w+)|$1<font color="Red">$2</font>|g;
# print into STDOUT
print $string;
}
=item -format
Specify the format of the file. Supported formats include:
PDB Protein Data Bank format
If no format is specified and a filename is given, then the module
will attempt to deduce it from the filename. If this is unsuccessful,
PDB format is assumed.
The format name is case insensitive. 'PDB', 'Pdb' and 'pdb' are
all supported.
=back
=head2 Bio::Structure::IO-E<gt>newFh()
$fh = Bio::Structure::IO->newFh(-fh => \*FILEHANDLE, -format=>$format);
$fh = Bio::Structure::IO->newFh(-format => $format);
# etc.
This constructor behaves like new(), but returns a tied filehandle
rather than a Bio::Structure::IO object. You can read structures from this
object using the familiar E<lt>E<gt> operator, and write to it using
print(). The usual array and $_ semantics work. For example, you can
read all structure objects into an array like this:
@structures = <$fh>;
Other operations, such as read(), sysread(), write(), close(), and printf()
are not supported.
=head1 OBJECT METHODS
See below for more detailed summaries. The main methods are:
=head2 $structure = $structIO-E<gt>next_structure()
Fetch the next structure from the stream.
=head2 $structIO-E<gt>write_structure($struc [,$another_struc,...])
Write the specified structure(s) to the stream.
=head2 TIEHANDLE(), READLINE(), PRINT()
These provide the tie interface. See L<perltie> for more details.

=head2 new
Title : new
Usage : $stream = Bio::Structure::IO->new(-file => $filename, -format => 'Format')
Function: Returns a new structIOstream
Returns : A Bio::Structure::IO handler initialised with the appropriate format
Args : -file => $filename
-format => format
-fh => filehandle to attach to

# or do we want to call SUPER on an object if $caller is an
# object?

}
=head2 newFh
Title : newFh
Usage : $fh = Bio::Structure::IO->newFh(-file=>$filename,-format=>'Format')
Function: does a new() followed by an fh()
Example : $fh = Bio::Structure::IO->newFh(-file=>$filename,-format=>'Format')
$structure = <$fh>; # read a structure object
print $fh $structure; # write a structure object
Returns : filehandle tied to the Bio::Structure::IO::Fh class
Args :
=cut
sub newFh {
my $class = shift;
return unless my $self = $class->new(@_);
return $self->fh;
}
=head2 fh
Title : fh
Usage : $obj->fh
Function:
Example : $fh = $obj->fh; # make a tied filehandle
$structure = <$fh>; # read a structure object
print $fh $structure; # write a structure object
Returns : filehandle tied to the Bio::Structure::IO::Fh class
Args :
=cut
sub fh {
my $self = shift;
my $class = ref($self) || $self;
my $s = Symbol::gensym;
tie $$s,$class,$self;

# _initialize is chained for all SeqIO classes
sub _initialize {
my($self, @args) = @_;
# not really necessary unless we put more in RootI
$self->SUPER::_initialize(@args);
# initialize the IO part
$self->_initialize_io(@args);
}
=head2 next_structure
Title : next_structure
Usage : $structure = stream->next_structure
Function: Reads the next structure object from the stream and returns it.
Certain driver modules may encounter entries in the stream that
are either misformatted or that use syntax not yet understood
by the driver. If such an incident is recoverable, e.g., by
dismissing a feature of a feature table or some other non-mandatory
part of an entry, the driver will issue a warning. In the case
of a non-recoverable situation an exception will be thrown.
Do not assume that you can resume parsing the same stream after
catching the exception. Note that you can always turn recoverable
errors into exceptions by calling $stream->verbose(2) (see
Bio::RootI POD page).
Returns : a Bio::Structure structure object
Args : none
=cut
sub next_structure {
my ($self, $struc) = @_;
$self->throw("Sorry, you cannot read from a generic Bio::Structure::IO object.");
}
# Do we want people to read out the sequence directly from a $structIO stream
#
##=head2 next_primary_seq
##
## Title : next_primary_seq
## Usage : $seq = $stream->next_primary_seq
## Function: Provides a primaryseq type of sequence object
## Returns : A Bio::PrimarySeqI object
## Args : none
##
##
##=cut
##
##sub next_primary_seq {
## my ($self) = @_;
##
## # in this case, we default to next_seq. This is because
## # Bio::Seq's are Bio::PrimarySeqI objects. However we
## # expect certain sub classes to override this method to provide
## # less parsing heavy methods to retrieving the objects
##
## return $self->next_seq();
##}
=head2 write_structure
Title : write_structure
Usage : $stream->write_structure($structure)
Function: writes the $structure object into the stream
Returns : 1 for success and 0 for error
Args : Bio::Structure object
=cut
sub write_seq {
my ($self, $struc) = @_;
$self->throw("Sorry, you cannot write to a generic Bio::Structure::IO object.");
}
# De we need this here
#
##=head2 alphabet
##
## Title : alphabet
## Usage : $self->alphabet($newval)
## Function: Set/get the molecule type for the Seq objects to be created.
## Example : $seqio->alphabet('protein')
## Returns : value of alphabet: 'dna', 'rna', or 'protein'
## Args : newvalue (optional)
## Throws : Exception if the argument is not one of 'dna', 'rna', or 'protein'
##
##=cut
##
##sub alphabet {
## my ($self, $value) = @_;
##
## if ( defined $value) {
## # instead of hard-coding the allowed values once more, we check by
## # creating a dummy sequence object

=head2 _load_format_module
Title : _load_format_module
Usage : *INTERNAL Structure::IO stuff*
Function: Loads up (like use) a module at run time on demand
Example :
Returns :
Args :
=cut
sub _load_format_module {
my ($format) = @_;
my ($module, $load, $m);
$module = "_<Bio/Structure/IO/$format.pm";
$load = "Bio/Structure/IO/$format.pm";
return 1 if $main::{$module};
eval {
require $load;
};
if ( $@ ) {
print STDERR <<END;
$load: $format cannot be found
Exception $@

from a continuation line of the first. Adds a space between both
unless the first ends with a dash.
Takes care of either arg being empty.
Example :
