NAME

Bio::ViennaNGS::Bed - Object-oriented interface for manipulation of genomic interval data in BED format

SYNOPSIS

use Bio::ViennaNGS::Bed;

my $bedobject = Bio::ViennaNGS::Bed->new();

DESCRIPTION

This module provides a Moose interface for storage and manipulation of genomic interval data. It is primarily used as a convenience wrapper for BED data with more generic Bio::ViennaNGS classes for feature annotation, such as Bio::ViennaNGS::MinimalFeature, Bio::ViennaNGS::Feature, Bio::ViennaNGS::FeatureChain and Bio::ViennaNGS::FeatureLine.

METHODS

get_length

Title   : _build_length
Usage   : $obj->_build_length();
Function: Compute the length of a BED12 interval block / line, i.e.
          the sum over the lengths of all intervals that make up a
          BED12 entry.
Args    :
Returns :

as_bed_line

Title   : as_bed_line
Usage   : $obj->as_bed_line($bedtype);
Function: Dump the contents of the object as BED6 or BED12 line.
Args    : C<$bedtype> can either be 6 or 12, determining BED6 or BED12
          output.
Returns : A (tab-separated) BED6 or BED12 line as string.
