=head1 NAME

Bio::DB::IndexedBase - Base class for modules using indexed sequence files

=head1 SYNOPSIS

  use Bio::DB::XXX; # a made-up class that uses Bio::IndexedBase

  # 1/ Bio::SeqIO-style access

  # Index some sequence files
  my $db = Bio::DB::XXX->new('/path/to/file');    # from a single file
  my $db = Bio::DB::XXX->new(['file1', 'file2']); # from multiple files
  my $db = Bio::DB::XXX->new('/path/to/files/');  # from a directory

  # Get IDs of all the sequences in the database
  my @ids = $db->get_all_primary_ids;

  # Get a specific sequence
  my $seq = $db->get_Seq_by_id('CHROMOSOME_I');

  # Loop through all sequences
  my $stream = $db->get_PrimarySeq_stream;
  while (my $seq = $stream->next_seq) {
    # Do something...
  }


  # 2/ Access via filehandle
  my $fh = Bio::DB::XXX->newFh('/path/to/file');
  while (my $seq = <$fh>) {
    # Do something...
  }


  # 3/ Tied-hash access
  tie %sequences, 'Bio::DB::XXX', '/path/to/file';
  print $sequences{'CHROMOSOME_I:1,20000'};

=head1 DESCRIPTION

Bio::DB::IndexedBase provides a base class for modules that want to index
and read sequence files and provides persistent, random access to each sequence
entry, without bringing the entire file into memory. This module is compliant
with the Bio::SeqI interface and both. Bio::DB::Fasta and Bio::DB::Qual both use
Bio::DB::IndexedBase.

When you initialize the module, you point it at a single file, several files, or
a directory of files. The first time it is run, the module generates an index
of the content of the files using the AnyDBM_File module (BerkeleyDB preferred,
followed by GDBM_File, NDBM_File, and SDBM_File). Subsequently, it uses the
index file to find the sequence file and offset for any requested sequence. If
one of the source files is updated, the module reindexes just that one file. You
can also force reindexing manually at any time. For improved performance, the
module keeps a cache of open filehandles, closing less-recently used ones when
the cache is full.

Entries may have any line length up to 65,536 characters, and different line
lengths are allowed in the same file.  However, within a sequence entry, all
lines must be the same length except for the last. An error will be thrown if
this is not the case!

This module was developed for use with the C. elegans and human genomes, and has
been tested with sequence segments as large as 20 megabases. Indexing the C.
elegans genome (100 megabases of genomic sequence plus 100,000 ESTs) takes ~5
minutes on my 300 MHz pentium laptop. On the same system, average access time
for any 200-mer within the C. elegans genome was E0.02s.

=head1 DATABASE CREATION AND INDEXING

The two constructors for this class are new() and newFh(). The former creates a
Bio::DB::IndexedBase object which is accessed via method calls. The latter
creates a tied filehandle which can be used Bio::SeqIO style to fetch sequence
objects in a stream fashion. There is also a tied hash interface.

=over

=item $db = Bio::DB::IndexedBase-Enew($path [,%options])

Create a new Bio::DB::IndexedBase object from the files designated by $path
$path may be a single file, an arrayref of files, or a directory containing
such files.

After the database is created, you can use methods like get_all_primary_ids()
and get_Seq_by_id() to retrieve sequence objects.

=item $fh = Bio::DB::IndexedBase-EnewFh($path [,%options])

Create a tied filehandle opened on a Bio::DB::IndexedBase object. Reading
from this filehandle with EE will return a stream of sequence objects,
Bio::SeqIO style. The path and the options should be specified as for new().

=item $obj = tie %db,'Bio::DB::IndexedBase', '/path/to/file' [,@args]

Create a tied-hash by tieing %db to Bio::DB::IndexedBase using the indicated
path to the files. The optional @args list is the same set used by new(). If
successful, tie() returns the tied object, undef otherwise.

Once tied, you can use the hash to retrieve an individual sequence by
its ID, like this:

  my $seq = $db{CHROMOSOME_I};

The keys() and values() functions will return the sequence IDs and their
sequences, respectively.  In addition, each() can be used to iterate over the
entire data set:

 while (my ($id,$sequence) = each %db) {
    print "$id => $sequence\n";
 }


When dealing with very large sequences, you can avoid bringing them into memory
by calling each() in a scalar context.  This returns the key only.  You can then
use tied(%db) to recover the Bio::DB::IndexedBase object and call its methods.

 while (my $id = each %db) {
    print "$id: $db{$sequence:1,100}\n";
    print "$id: ".tied(%db)->length($id)."\n";
 }

In addition, you may invoke the FIRSTKEY and NEXTKEY tied hash methods directly
to retrieve the first and next ID in the database, respectively. This allows one to
write the following iterative loop using just the object-oriented interface:

 my $db = Bio::DB::IndexedBase->new('/path/to/file');
 for (my $id=$db->FIRSTKEY; $id; $id=$db->NEXTKEY($id)) {
    # do something with sequence
 }

=back

=head1 INDEX CONTENT

Several attributes of each sequence are stored in the index file. Given a
sequence ID, these attributes can be retrieved using the following methods:

=over

=item offset($id)

Get the offset of the indicated sequence from the beginning of the file in which
it is located. The offset points to the beginning of the sequence, not the
beginning of the header line.

=item strlen($id)

Get the number of characters in the sequence string.

=item length($id)

Get the number of residues of the sequence.

=item linelen($id)

Get the length of the line for this sequence. If the sequence is wrapped, then
linelen() is likely to be much shorter than strlen().

=item headerlen($id)

Get the length of the header line for the indicated sequence.

=item header_offset

Get the offset of the header line for the indicated sequence from the beginning
of the file in which it is located. This attribute is not stored. It is
calculated from offset() and headerlen().

=item alphabet($id)

Get the molecular type (alphabet) of the indicated sequence. This method handles
residues according to the IUPAC convention.

=item file($id)

Get the the name of the file in which the indicated sequence can be found.

=back

=head1 INTERFACE COMPLIANCE NOTES

Bio::DB::IndexedBase is compliant with the Bio::DB::SeqI and hence with the
Bio::RandomAccessI interfaces.

Database do not necessarily provide any meaningful internal primary ID for the
sequences they store. However, Bio::DB::IndexedBase's internal primary IDs are
the IDs of the sequences. This means that the same ID passed to get_Seq_by_id()
and get_Seq_by_primary_id() will return the same sequence.

Since this database index has no notion of sequence version or namespace, the
get_Seq_by_id(), get_Seq_by_acc() and get_Seq_by_version() are identical.

=head1 BUGS

When a sequence is deleted from one of the files, this deletion is not detected
by the module and removed from the index. As a result, a "ghost" entry will
remain in the index and will return garbage results if accessed.

Also, if you are indexing a directory, it is wise to not add or remove files
from it.

In case you have changed the files in a directory, or the sequences in a file,
you can to rebuild the entire index, either by deleting it manually, or by
passing -reindex=E1 to new() when initializing the module.

 Title   : new
 Usage   : my $db = Bio::DB::IndexedBase->new($path, -reindex => 1);
 Function: Initialize a new database object
 Returns : A Bio::DB::IndexedBase object
 Args    : A single file, or path to dir, or arrayref of files
           Optional arguments:

 Option        Description                                         Default
 -----------   -----------                                         -------
 -glob         Glob expression to search for files in directories  *
 -makeid       A code subroutine for transforming IDs              None
 -maxopen      Maximum size of filehandle cache                    32
 -debug        Turn on status messages                             0
 -reindex      Force the index to be rebuilt                       0
 -dbmargs      Additional arguments to pass to the DBM routine     None
 -index_name   Name of the file that will hold the indices
 -clean        Remove the index file when finished                 0

The -dbmargs option can be used to control the format of the index. For example,
you can pass $DB_BTREE to this argument so as to force the IDs to be sorted and
retrieved alphabetically. Note that you must use the same arguments every time
you open the index!

The -makeid option gives you a chance to modify sequence IDs during indexing.
For example, you may wish to extract a portion of the gi|gb|abc|xyz nonsense
that GenBank Fasta files use. The original header line can be recovered later.
The option value for -makeid should be a code reference that takes a scalar
argument (the full header line) and returns a scalar or an array of scalars (the
ID or IDs you want to assign). For example:

  $db = Bio::DB::IndexedBase->new('file.fa', -makeid => \&extract_gi);

  sub extract_gi {
      # Extract GI from GenBank
      my $header = shift;
      my ($id) = ($header =~ /gi\|(\d+)/m);
      return $id || '';
  }

extract_gi() will be called with the full header line, e.g. a Fasta line would
include the "E", the ID and the description:

 >gi|352962132|ref|NG_030353.1| Homo sapiens sal-like 3 (Drosophila) (SALL3)

In the database, this sequence can now be retrieved by its GI instead of its
complete ID:

 my $seq = $db->get_Seq_by_id(352962132);

The -makeid option is ignored after the index is constructed.
