=head1 NAME

Bio::DB::Taxonomy::list - An implementation of Bio::DB::Taxonomy
that accepts lists of words to build a database

=head1 SYNOPSIS

  use Bio::DB::Taxonomy;

  my $db = Bio::DB::Taxonomy->new( -source => 'list' );

  my @ranks = ('superkingdom', 'class', 'genus', 'species');
  my @names = ('Eukaryota', 'Mammalia', 'Homo', 'Homo sapiens');
  $db->add_lineage(-names => \@names, -ranks => \@ranks);

  @names = ('Eukaryota', 'Mammalia', 'Mus', 'Mus musculus');
  $db->add_lineage(-names => \@names, -ranks => \@ranks);

=head1 DESCRIPTION

This is an implementation which uses supplied lists of words to create a
database from which you can extract Bio::Taxon objects.

=head1 TODO

It is possible this module could do something like store the data it builds
up to disc. Would that be useful?
At any rate, this is why the module is called 'list' and not 'in_memory' or
similar.

=head1 FEEDBACK

=head2 Mailing Lists

User feedback is an integral part of the evolution of this and other
Bioperl modules. Send your comments and suggestions preferably to
the Bioperl mailing list.  Your participation is much appreciated.

=head2 Support

Please direct usage questions or support issues to the mailing list:

rather than to the module maintainer directly. Many experienced and
reponsive experts will be able look at the problem and quickly
address it. Please include a thorough description of the problem
with code and data examples if at all possible.

=head2 new

 Title   : new
 Usage   : my $obj = Bio::DB::Taxonomy::list->new();
 Function: Builds a new Bio::DB::Taxonomy::list object
 Returns : an instance of Bio::DB::Taxonomy::list
 Args    : optional, as per the add_lineage() method.

=head2 add_lineage

 Title   : add_lineage
 Usage   : my @names = ('Eukaryota', 'Mammalia', 'Homo', 'Homo sapiens');
           my @ranks = ('superkingdom', 'class', 'genus', 'species');
           $db->add_lineage( -names => \@names, -ranks => \@ranks );
 Function: Add a lineage to the database, where the lineage is described by
           a list of scientific names in the order root->leaf. The rank of each
           name can optionally be described by supplying an additional list
           of rank names in the same order (eg. superkingdom->species).
 Returns : 1 for success
 Args    : -names => [] : array ref of scientific names, REQUIRED
           -ranks => [] : array ref of rank names, same order as above, OPTIONAL

    # This is non-trivial because names are not guaranteed unique in a taxonomy,
    # and neither are name&rank combinations. Furthermore, different name&rank
    # combinations can actually refer to the same taxon, eg. when one time
    # 'Homo'&'genus' is supplied, while another time 'Homo'&'no rank'.
    #
    # name&rank&ancestor could well be unique (or good enough 99.9999% of the
    # time), but we have the added complication that lineages could sometimes be
    # supplied with differing numbers of taxa. Ideally we want to realise that
    # the first of these two lineages shares all its nodes with the second:
    # ('Mammalia', 'Homo', 'Homo sapiens')
    # ('Mammalia', 'Hominidae', 'Homo', 'Homo sapiens')
    #
    # Clearly with limited information we can't do a perfect job, but we can try
    # and do a reasonable one. So, let's just do the trivial implementation now
    # and see how bad it is! (assumes ranks are unique except for 'no rank')

=head2 get_num_taxa

 Title   : get_num_taxa

 Function: Get the number of taxa stored in the database.
 Returns : A number
 Args    : None

=head2 get_taxon

 Title   : get_taxon
 Usage   : my $taxon = $db->get_taxon(-taxonid => $taxonid)
 Function: Get a Bio::Taxon object from the database.
 Returns : Bio::Taxon object
 Args    : A single value which is the ID of the taxon to retrieve
             OR named args, as follows:
           -taxonid => Taxonomy ID (NB: these are not NCBI taxonomy ids but
                       'list' pre-fixed ids unique to the list database).
             OR
           -name    => String (to query by a taxonomy name). A given taxon name
                       can match different taxonomy objects. When that is the
                       case, a warning is displayed and the first matching taxon
                       is reported. See get_taxonids() to get all matching taxon
                       IDs.
             OR
           -names   => Array ref of lineage names, like in add_lineage(). To
                       overcome the limitations of -name, you can use -names to
                       provide the full lineage of the taxon you want and get a
                       unique, unambiguous taxon object.
