Constructor Detail

GenbankRichSequenceDB

public GenbankRichSequenceDB()

The default constructor delegates to the parent class. The constructor refers to RichObjectFactory.getDefaultNamespace() so make sure your factory is initialised before calling this constructor. Sets the default factory to THRESHOLD.

Method Detail

getAddress

protected URL getAddress(String id)
                  throws MalformedURLException

Get the URL object for locating sequence object using eutils. The default value of the return format of the sequence object is text.

Throws:

MalformedURLException

makeBatchRequest

protected String makeBatchRequest(URL url,
                                  Set list)

Create the Http Post Request to fetch (in batch mode) a list of sequence with Genbank.

Parameters:

url - URL of the request

list - List of sequence identifier

Returns:

The Post request.

getRichSequence

public RichSequence getRichSequence(String id)
                             throws BioException,
                                    IllegalIDException

Given the appropriate Genbank ID, return the matching RichSequence object.

Specified by:

getRichSequence in interface RichSequenceDBLite

Parameters:

id - the Genbank ID to retrieve.

Returns:

the matching RichSequence object, or null if not found.

Throws:

Exception - if the sequence could not be retrieved for reasons other than the identifier not being found.

IllegalIDException - if the database doesn't know about the id

BioException

getRichSequence

public RichSequence getRichSequence(String id,
                                    Namespace nsp)
                             throws BioException,
                                    IllegalIDException

Given the appropriate Genbank ID, return the matching RichSequence object. Additionally define a new Namespace for the received RichSequence object.

Parameters:

id - the Genbank ID to retrieve.

nsp - the Namespace to define.

Returns:

the matching RichSequence object, or null if not found.

Throws:

Exception - if the sequence could not be retrieved for reasons other than the identifier not being found.

BioException

IllegalIDException

getRichSequences

public RichSequenceDB getRichSequences(Set list)
                                throws BioException,
                                       IllegalIDException

Retrieve rich sequences from a Genbank

Specified by:

getRichSequences in interface RichSequenceDBLite

Parameters:

list - List of NCBI sequence number (GI), accession, accession.version, fasta or seqid.

Returns:

The rich database object (HashSequenceDB) with downloaded rich sequences. You will need to cast the sequences you get from this database object into RichSequence objects if you want to access their full features.

Throws:

IllegalIDException - if the database doesn't know about the id

BioException

getRichSequences

public RichSequenceDB getRichSequences(Set list,
                                       RichSequenceDB database)
                                throws BioException,
                                       IllegalIDException

Retrieve rich sequences from a Genbank

Specified by:

getRichSequences in interface RichSequenceDBLite

Parameters:

list - List of NCBI sequence number (GI), accession, accession.version, fasta or seqid.

database - Where to store rich sequences. If database is null, use an HashSequenceDB Object.

Returns:

The database object with downloaded rich sequences. You will need to cast the sequences you get from this database object into RichSequence objects if you want to access their full features.

Throws:

IllegalIDException - if the database doesn't know about the id

BioException

getName

public String getName()

Description copied from interface: SequenceDBLite

ids

public Set ids()

Description copied from interface: SequenceDB

Get an immutable set of all of the IDs in the database. The ids are legal arguments to getSequence.

Specified by:

ids in interface SequenceDB

Specified by:

ids in interface BioEntryDB

Returns:

a Set of ids - at the moment, strings

getFactory

public RichSequenceBuilderFactory getFactory()
