NAME

Bio::SearchIO::Writer::HTMLResultWriter - write a Bio::Search::ResultI in HTML

SYNOPSIS

  use Bio::SearchIO;
  use Bio::SearchIO::Writer::HTMLResultWriter;
  my $in = Bio::SearchIO->new(-format => 'blast',
                             -file   => shift @ARGV);
  my $writer = Bio::SearchIO::Writer::HTMLResultWriter->new();
  my $out = Bio::SearchIO->new(-writer => $writer);
  $out->write_result($in->next_result);
  # to filter your output
  my $MinLength = 100; # need a variable with scope outside the method
  sub hsp_filter { 
      my $hsp = shift;
      return 1 if $hsp->length('total') > $MinLength;
  }
  sub result_filter { 
      my $result = shift;
      return $hsp->num_hits > 0;
  }
  my $writer = Bio::SearchIO::Writer::HTMLResultWriter->new
                     (-filters => { 'HSP' => \&hsp_filter} );
  my $out = Bio::SearchIO->new(-writer => $writer);
  $out->write_result($in->next_result);
  # can also set the filter via the writer object
  $writer->filter('RESULT', \&result_filter);

DESCRIPTION

This object implements the SearchWriterI interface which will produce a set of HTML for a specific Bio::Search::Report::ReportI interface.

See Bio::SearchIO::SearchWriterI for more info on the filter method.

           : see ResultTableWriter.pm, HitTableWriter.pm, 
           : and HSPTableWriter.pm.
 Usage     : print $writer->to_string( $result_obj, @args );

           link(s) for the given hit to be used
           within the description section at the top of the BLAST report.
           This allows a person reading the report within
           a web browser to go to one or more database entries for

           within the description section at the top of the BLAST report.
           This allows a person reading the report within
           a web browser to go to one or more database entries for
           the given hit from the description section.
 Returns : string containing HTML markup "<a href...")
           The default implementation returns an HTML link to the
           URL supplied by the remote_database_url() method
           and using the identifier supplied by the id_parser() method.
           It will use the NCBI GI if present, and the accession if not.

           This allows a person reading the report within
           a web browser to go to one or more database entries for
           the given hit from the alignment section.
 Returns : string containing HTML markup "<a href...")
           The default implementation delegates to hit_link_desc().
