Bio::Graphics::FeatureFile 1.4

Bio::Graphics::FeatureFile is a set of Bio::Graphics features, stored in a file. SYNOPSIS use Bio::Graphics::FeatureFile; my $data = Bio::Graphics::FeatureFile->new(-file => features.txt); # create a new panel and render contents of the file onto it my $panel = $data->new_panel; my $tracks_rendered = $data->render($panel); # or do it all in one step my ($tracks_rendered,$panel) = $data->render; # for more control, render tracks individually my @feature_types = $data->types; for my $type (@feature_types) { my $features = $data->features($type); my %options = $data->style($type); $panel->add_track($features,%options); # assuming we have a Bio::Graphics::Panel } # get individual settings my $est_fg_color = $data->setting(EST => fgcolor); # or create the FeatureFile by hand # add a type $data->add_type(EST => {fgcolor=>blue,height=>12}); # add a feature my $feature = Bio::Graphics::Feature->new( # params ); # or some other SeqI $data->add_feature($feature=>EST); The Bio::Graphics::FeatureFile module reads and parses files that describe sequence features and their renderings. It accepts both GFF format and a more human-friendly file format described below. Once a FeatureFile object has been initialized, you can interrogate it for its consistuent features and their settings, or render the entire file onto a Bio::Graphics::Panel. This moduel is a precursor of Jason Stajichs Bio::Annotation::Collection class, and fulfills a similar function of storing a collection of sequence features. However, it also stores rendering information about the features, and does not currently follow the CollectionI interface..
