Detailed Description

The generic concept for sequence file out formats.

The details of this concept are only relevant to developers who wish to implement their own format. The requirements for this concept are given as related functions and metafunctions. Types that satisfy this concept are shown as "implementing this interface".

Member Function Documentation

◆ write()

void write ( stream_type &  stream,
seqan3::sequence_file_output_options const &  options,
seq_type &&  sequence,
id_type &&  id,
qual_type &&  qualities 
)

Write the given fields to the specified stream.

Template Parameters
stream_typeOutput stream, must satisfy seqan3::ostream_concept with char.
seq_typeType of the seqan3::field::SEQ output; must satisfy std::ranges::OutputRange over a seqan3::alphabet_concept.
id_typeType of the seqan3::field::ID output; must satisfy std::ranges::OutputRange over a seqan3::alphabet_concept.
qual_typeType of the seqan3::field::QUAL output; must satisfy std::ranges::OutputRange over a seqan3::quality_concept.
Parameters
[in,out]streamThe output stream to write into.
[in]optionsFile specific options passed to the format.
[in]sequenceThe data for seqan3::field::SEQ, i.e. the "sequence".
[in]idThe data for seqan3::field::ID, e.g. the header line in FastA.
[in]qualitiesThe data for seqan3::field::QUAL.

Additional requirements

  • The format must also accept std::ignore as parameter for any of the fields, however it shall throw an exception if one of the fields required for writing the format is marked as such. [this shall be checked inside the function]
  • The format does not handle seqan3::field::SEQ_QUAL, instead seqan3::sequence_file_output splits it into two views and passes it to the format as if they were separate.

Implemented in seqan3::sequence_file_format_fasta.
