[Bioperl-l] Question on integrating Bio::Graphics with Bio::SearchIO::Writer::HTMLResultWriter

[Anand Venkatraman]

Hi Jason,

Thanks for the reply.

I am a little lost with the solution suggested. Is that how slide 60 in the pdf is obtained: http://jason.open-bio.org/Bioperl_Tutorials/NESCENT_2007/CSHL_Bioperl_I.pdf

I guess I am missing something quite obvious, I apologize.

What I have & want is this: I have a directory having say 100 different blast reports & hence I am looking to obtain 100 different bioperl formatted blast html outputs with the respective images just as it would appear in the blast report.

Thanks,

Anand

Basically you want to inject your own IMG tags into the file with these routines:


    $writerhtml->start_report(\&my_start_report);
    $writerhtml->title(\&my_title);
    $writerhtml->hit_link_align(\&my_hit_link_align);
    $writerhtml->hit_link_desc(\&my_hit_link_desc);


fgblast shows a way to do this in part. It relies on Gbrowse to generate the image but you can replace the gbrowse_img reference to your own image generating software.

Hi everybody,


I would like to use Bio::Graphics in conjunction with Bio::SearchIO::Writer::HTMLResultWriter to obtain a HTML formatted blast report output along with an image of the blast hits as shown on Slide 60 in this pdf: http://jason.open-bio.org/Bioperl_Tutorials/NESCENT_2007/CSHL_Bioperl_I.pdf


I am able to get the HTML output using  "Bio::SearchIO::Writer::HTMLResultWriter" and I am able to get the image using the examples outlined in the Bio::Graphics HOWTO: http://www.bioperl.org/wiki/HOWTO:Graphics


My question: How do I integrate Bio::Graphics with Bio::SearchIO::Writer::HTMLResultWriter to render the blast hits image at the correct position in my BioPerl reformatted html file.


I also found that someone else has asked something similar to whatever I am asking & is listed under the "Orphans, Leftovers" category in the ListSummary:April 26-May 9,2006 document: 
http://www.bioperl.org/wiki/ListSummary:April_26-May_9%2C2006#Orphans.2C_Leftovers


Here is my code so far:
----------------------------------------------------------------
#!/usr/bin/perl -w
# usage: $0 <blast_report>
use strict;
use Bio::SearchIO;
use Bio::SearchIO::Writer::HTMLResultWriter;


my $infile = shift or die $!;


my $searchio = new Bio::SearchIO( -format => 'blast',-file   => $infile);
my $writerhtml = new Bio::SearchIO::Writer::HTMLResultWriter();
my $outhtml = new Bio::SearchIO(-writer => $writerhtml,
                                                  -file   => ">${infile}.html");


$outhtml->write_result($searchio->next_result);
----------------------------------------------------------------


Thanks in advance,


Anand
