=head1 NAME

Bio::DB::Flat::BinarySearch - BinarySearch search indexing system for sequence files

=head1 SYNOPSIS



=head1 DESCRIPTION

This module can be used both to index sequence files and also to
retrieve sequences from existing sequence files.

This object allows indexing of sequence files both by a primary key
(say accession) and multiple secondary keys (say ids).  This is
different from the Bio::Index::Abstract (see L<Bio::Index::Abstract>)
which uses DBM files as storage.  This module uses a binary search to
retrieve sequences which is more efficient for large datasets.

=head2 Index creation

    my $sequencefile;  # Some fasta sequence file

Patterns have to be entered to define where the keys are to be indexed
and also where the start of each record.  E.g. for fasta

    my $start_pattern   = '^>';
    my $primary_pattern = '^>(\S+)';

So the start of a record is a line starting with a E<gt> and the
primary key is all characters up to the first space after the E<gt>

A string also has to be entered to defined what the primary key
(primary_namespace) is called.

The index can now be created using 

    my $index = Bio::DB::Flat::BinarySearch->new(
             -directory         => "/home/max/",
             -dbname            => "mydb",
	          -start_pattern     => $start_pattern,
	          -primary_pattern   => $primary_pattern,
             -primary_namespace => "ID",
	          -format            => "fasta" );

    my @files = ("file1","file2","file3");

    $index->build_index(@files);

The index is now ready to use.  For large sequence files the perl way
of indexing takes a *long* time and a *huge* amount of memory.  For
indexing things like dbEST I recommend using the DB_File indexer, BDB.

The formats currently supported by this module are fasta, Swissprot,
and EMBL.

=head2 Creating indices with secondary keys

Sometimes just indexing files with one id per entry is not enough.  For
instance you may want to retrieve sequences from swissprot using
their accessions as well as their ids.

To be able to do this when creating your index you need to pass in 
a hash of secondary_patterns which have their namespaces as the keys
to the hash.

e.g. For Indexing something like

ID   1433_CAEEL     STANDARD;      PRT;   248 AA.
AC   P41932;
DT   01-NOV-1995 (Rel. 32, Created)
DT   01-NOV-1995 (Rel. 32, Last sequence update)
DT   15-DEC-1998 (Rel. 37, Last annotation update)
DE   14-3-3-LIKE PROTEIN 1.
GN   FTT-1 OR M117.2.
OS   Caenorhabditis elegans.
OC   Eukaryota; Metazoa; Nematoda; Chromadorea; Rhabditida; Rhabditoidea;
OC   Rhabditidae; Peloderinae; Caenorhabditis.
OX   NCBI_TaxID=6239;
RN   [1]

where we want to index the accession (P41932) as the primary key and the
id (1433_CAEEL) as the secondary id.  The index is created as follows

    my %secondary_patterns;

    my $start_pattern   = '^ID   (\S+)';
    my $primary_pattern = '^AC   (\S+)\;';

    $secondary_patterns{"ID"} = '^ID   (\S+)';

    my $index = Bio::DB::Flat::BinarySearch->new(
                -directory          => $index_directory,
		          -dbname             => "ppp",
		          -write_flag         => 1,
                -verbose            => 1,
                -start_pattern      => $start_pattern,
                -primary_pattern    => $primary_pattern,
                -primary_namespace  => 'AC',
                -secondary_patterns => \%secondary_patterns);

    $index->build_index($seqfile);

Of course having secondary indices makes indexing slower and use more
memory.

=head2 Index reading

To fetch sequences using an existing index first of all create your sequence 
object 

    my $index = Bio::DB::Flat::BinarySearch->new(
                  -directory => $index_directory);

Now you can happily fetch sequences either by the primary key or
by the secondary keys.

    my $entry = $index->get_entry_by_id('HBA_HUMAN');

This returns just a string containing the whole entry.  This is
useful is you just want to print the sequence to screen or write it to a file.

Other ways of getting sequences are

    my $fh = $index->get_stream_by_id('HBA_HUMAN');

This can then be passed to a seqio object for output or converting
into objects.

    my $seq = Bio::SeqIO->new(-fh     => $fh,
			                    -format => 'fasta');

The last way is to retrieve a sequence directly.  This is the
slowest way of extracting as the sequence objects need to be made.

    my $seq = $index->get_Seq_by_id('HBA_HUMAN');

To access the secondary indices the secondary namespace needs to be known

    $index->secondary_namespaces("ID");

Then the following call can be used

    my $seq   = $index->get_Seq_by_secondary('ID','1433_CAEEL');

These calls are not yet implemented

    my $fh    = $index->get_stream_by_secondary('ID','1433_CAEEL');
    my $entry = $index->get_entry_by_secondary('ID','1433_CAEEL');
