4 =head1 NAME
6 bp_bioflat_index.pl - index sequence files using Bio::DB::Flat
8 =head1 DESCRIPTION
10 Create or update a biological sequence database indexed with the
11 Bio::DB::Flat indexing scheme. The arguments are a list of flat files
12 containing the sequence information to be indexed.
14 =head1 USAGE
16 bp_bioflat_index.pl <options> file1 file2 file3...
18 Options:
20 --create Create or reinitialize the index. If not specified,
21 the index must already exist.
23 --format <format> The format of the sequence files. Must be one
24 of "genbank", "swissprot", "embl" or "fasta".
26 --location <path> Path to the directory in which the index files
27 are stored.
29 --dbname <name> The symbolic name of the database to be created.
31 --indextype <type> Type of index to create. Either "bdb" or "flat".
32 "binarysearch" is the same as "flat".
34 Options can be abbreviated. For example, use -i for --indextype.
36 The following environment variables will be used as defaults if the
37 corresponding options are not provided:
39 OBDA_FORMAT format of sequence file
40 OBDA_LOCATION path to directory in which index files are stored
41 OBDA_DBNAME name of database
42 OBDA_INDEX type of index to create
