FastaFile
object. URLs and connections
are not supported. If con
is not a FastaFile
, either
the file extension or the format
argument needs to be
fasta. Compressed files (gz, bz2 and
xz) are handled transparently.
XStringSet
or
something coercible to a DNAStringSet
, like a character vector.
con
is missing, a character vector to use as the
input
writeXStringSet
(export)
or the readDNAStringSet
family of
functions (import).
FastaFile
class extends RTLFile
and is a
formal represention of a resource in the Fasta format.
To cast a path, URL or connection to a FastaFile
, pass it to
the FastaFile
constructor.writeXStringSet
(export) and the
readDNAStringSet
family of functions
(import).See export-methods in the BSgenome package for exporting a BSgenome object as a FASTA file.
