ontotext Wiki The master copies of EMBOSS documentation are available at http://emboss.open-bio.org/wiki/Appdocs on the EMBOSS Wiki. Please help by correcting and extending the Wiki pages. Function Get ontology term(s) original full text Description ontotext reads one or more complete ontology term entries from a database or a file and writes them to a text file. Optionally, the first ontology term from the input stream only can be retrieved. The complete entry, including heading annotation, is retrieved and written and the data is not altered or reformatted in any way. Usage Here is a sample session with ontotext % ontotext edam:0001234 Get ontology term(s) original full text Output file [0001234.ontotext]: Go to the input files for this example Go to the output files for this example Example 2 % ontotext edam:0000850 -subclasses Get ontology term(s) original full text Output file [0000850.ontotext]: Go to the input files for this example Go to the output files for this example Command line arguments Get ontology term(s) original full text Version: EMBOSS:6.4.0.0 Standard (Mandatory) qualifiers: [-oboterms] obo Obo term filename and optional format, or reference (input query) [-outfile] outfile [*.ontotext] Output file name Additional (Optional) qualifiers: -subclasses boolean [N] Extend the query matches to include all terms which are specialisations (sub-classes) of the matched terms. -obsolete boolean [N] The default behaviour is to not use or return obsolete terms. This option if set will include all terms. Advanced (Unprompted) qualifiers: (none) Associated qualifiers: "-oboterms" associated qualifiers -iformat1 string Input obo format -idbname1 string User-provided database name "-outfile" associated qualifiers -odirectory2 string Output directory General qualifiers: -auto boolean Turn off prompts -stdout boolean Write first file to standard output -filter boolean Read first file from standard input, write first file to standard output -options boolean Prompt for standard and additional values -debug boolean Write debug output to program.dbg -verbose boolean Report some/full command line options -help boolean Report command line options and exit. More information on associated and general qualifiers can be found with -help -verbose -warning boolean Report warnings -error boolean Report errors -fatal boolean Report fatal errors -die boolean Report dying program messages -version boolean Report version number and exit Input file format The input is a standard EMBOSS ontology query. The major ontology sources defined as standard in EMBOSS installations are EDAM, GO (gene Ontology) and SO (Sequence Ontology). Data can also be read from ontology output in "obo" format written by an EMBOSS application.
