All Implemented Interfaces:
RichSequenceHandler

public class BioSQLRichSequenceHandler
extends DummyRichSequenceHandler

A handler which loads sequence data from a BioSQL database, caching it where possible. Note that this data is read-only. If you want to modify it permanently, you must use BioSQLRichSequenceDB.getRichSequence() to convert the original sequence into a proper SimpleRichSequence.

Constructor Summary
BioSQLRichSequenceHandler(Object session)
          Requires a Hibernate session to work correctly.
 
Method Summary
 void edit(RichSequence seq, Edit edit)
          Apply an edit to the Sequence as specified by the edit object.

Description

All edits can be broken down into a series of operations that change contiguous blocks of the sequence. This represent a one of those operations.

When applied, this Edit will replace 'length' number of symbols starting a position 'pos' by the SymbolList 'replacement'. This allow to do insertions (length=0), deletions (replacement=SymbolList.EMPTY_LIST) and replacements (length>=1 and replacement.length()>=1).

The pos and pos+length should always be valid positions on the SymbolList to:

  • be edited (between 0 and symL.length()+1).
  • To append to a sequence, pos=symL.length()+1, pos=0.
  • To insert something at the beginning of the sequence, set pos=1 and length=0.

Examples

 RichSequence seq = //code to initialize RichSequence
 System.out.println(seq.seqString());

 // delete 5 bases from position 4
 Edit ed = new Edit(4, 5, SymbolList.EMPTY_LIST);
 seq.edit(ed);
 System.out.println(seq.seqString());

 // delete one base from the start
 ed = new Edit(1, 1, SymbolList.EMPTY_LIST);
 seq.edit(ed);

 // delete one base from the end
 ed = new Edit(seq.length(), 1, SymbolList.EMPTY_LIST);
 seq.edit(ed);
 System.out.println(seq.seqString());

 // overwrite 2 bases from position 3 with "tt"
 ed = new Edit(3, 2, DNATools.createDNA("tt"));
 seq.edit(ed);
 System.out.println(seq.seqString());

 // add 6 bases to the start
 ed = new Edit(1, 0, DNATools.createDNA("aattgg");
 seq.edit(ed);
 System.out.println(seq.seqString());

 // add 4 bases to the end
 ed = new Edit(seq.length() + 1, 0, DNATools.createDNA("tttt"));
 seq.edit(ed);
 System.out.println(seq.seqString());

 // full edit
 ed = new Edit(3, 2, DNATools.createDNA("aatagaa");
 seq.edit(ed);
 System.out.println(seq.seqString());
 
 Iterator iterator(RichSequence seq)
          An Iterator over all Symbols in this SymbolList.

This is an ordered iterator over the Symbols. It cannot be used to edit the underlying symbols.

 String seqString(RichSequence seq)
          Stringify this Sequences.

It is expected that this will use the symbol's token to render each symbol. It should be parsable back into a SymbolList using the default token parser for this alphabet.

 SymbolList subList(RichSequence seq, int start, int end)
          Return a new SymbolList for the symbols start to end inclusive.

The resulting SymbolList will count from 1 to (end-start + 1) inclusive, and refer to the symbols start to end of the original sequence.

 String subStr(RichSequence seq, int start, int end)
          Return a region of this sequence as a String.

This should use the same rules as seqString.

 Symbol symbolAt(RichSequence seq, int index)
          Return the symbol at index, counting from 1.
 List toList(RichSequence seq)
          Returns a List of symbols.

This should be an immutable list of symbols or a copy.

Constructor Detail

BioSQLRichSequenceHandler

public BioSQLRichSequenceHandler(Object session)
Requires a Hibernate session to work correctly. The session parameter is a Hibernate Session object and must not be null. It is this session that database objects will be retrieved from/persisted to.

edit

public void edit(RichSequence seq,
                 Edit edit)
          throws IndexOutOfBoundsException,
                 IllegalAlphabetException,
                 ChangeVetoException
Apply an edit to the Sequence as specified by the edit object.

Description

All edits can be broken down into a series of operations that change contiguous blocks of the sequence. This represent a one of those operations.

When applied, this Edit will replace 'length' number of symbols starting a position 'pos' by the SymbolList 'replacement'. This allow to do insertions (length=0), deletions (replacement=SymbolList.EMPTY_LIST) and replacements (length>=1 and replacement.length()>=1).

The pos and pos+length should always be valid positions on the SymbolList to:

Examples

 RichSequence seq = //code to initialize RichSequence
 System.out.println(seq.seqString());

 // delete 5 bases from position 4
 Edit ed = new Edit(4, 5, SymbolList.EMPTY_LIST);
 seq.edit(ed);
 System.out.println(seq.seqString());

 // delete one base from the start
 ed = new Edit(1, 1, SymbolList.EMPTY_LIST);
 seq.edit(ed);

 // delete one base from the end
 ed = new Edit(seq.length(), 1, SymbolList.EMPTY_LIST);
 seq.edit(ed);
 System.out.println(seq.seqString());

 // overwrite 2 bases from position 3 with "tt"
