This tag will import the static $BioWWW object created by Bio::Tools::WWW.pm into your name space. This saves you from having to call C<new Bio::Tools::WWW>. You are free to not use the :obj tag and create the object as you like, but a Bio::Tools::WWW object is not configurable; any given script only needs a single copy. =head1 INSTALLATION This module is included with the central Bioperl distribution: http://bio.perl.org/Core/Latest ftp://bio.perl.org/pub/DIST You also need to define URLs for the following variables in this package: $Not_found_url : Generic page to show in place of a 404 error. $Tmp_url : Web-accessible site that is Used for scripts that need to generate temporary, web-accessible files. The files need not necessarily be HTML files, but being on the same disk as the server will permit faster IO from server scripts. =head1 DESCRIPTION Bio::Tools::WWW is primarily a URL broker for a select set of sites related to bioinformatics/genome analysis. It definitely represents a biased, unexhaustive set. It might be more accurate to call this module "Bio::Tools::URL.pm". But this module does handle some non-URL things and it may do more of this in the future. Having one module to cover all biologically relevant web utilities makes it more convenient, especially at this early stage of development. Maintaining accurate URLs over time can be challenging as new web sites spring up and old sites are re-organized. Because of this fact, the URLs in this module are not guaranteed to be correct or exhaustive and will require periodic updating. =head2 URL Management By keeping URL management within Bio::Tools::WWW.pm, other generic modules can easily access a variety of different web sites without having to know about a potential multitude of specific modules specialized for one database or another. An alternative approach would be to have addresses defined within modules specialized for different web sites. This, however, may create maintenance headaches when updating these addresses. =head2 Complex Websites Websites with complex datasets may require special treatment within this module. As an example, URLs for the Saccharomyces Genome Database are clustered separately in this module, due to (1) the different ways to access information at this database and (2) the familiarity of the developer with this database. The Bio::SGD::WWW.pm inherits from Bio::Tools::WWW.pm to permit access to the URLs provided by Bio::Tools::WWW.pm and to SGD-specific HTML and images. The organization of Bio::Tools::WWW.pm is expected to evolve as websites get born, die, and mutate their APIs. =head1 SEE ALSO http://bio.perl.org/Projects/modules.html - Online module documentation http://bio.perl.org/ - Bioperl Project Homepage =head1 FEEDBACK =head2 Mailing Lists User feedback is an integral part of the evolution of this and other Bioperl modules.
