πŸ’… EPROXY(1)

okay bestie, so this one's from the NCBI Entrez Direct User's Manual ✨ and it's literally called eproxy β€” the load-NCBI-Entrez-search-aliases girlie πŸŽ€ (also known as edirect -proxy).


✨ NAME ✨

eproxy β€” load NCBI Entrez search aliases. DEPRECATED πŸ’€


🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

eproxy (edirect -proxy) [-help] [-alias filename] [-pipe]

πŸ¦‹ DESCRIPTION πŸ¦‹

heads up bestie: eproxy will not appear in future releases of NCBI Entrez Direct. she's leaving the group chat 😭

So here's the tea: eproxy loads named search term aliases for use in subsequent edirect pipeline stages. where does she get them? from a two-column tab-delimited text file πŸ“„βœ¨ no cap.


πŸ’– OPTIONS πŸ’–

  • -help β€” print usage information. classic. she tells you how to use her 🫢
  • -alias filename β€” file of aliases. this is the two-column tab-delimited text file of named search term aliases πŸ“‘
  • -pipe β€” read aliases from standard input. no file needed, just pipe it straight in 🧚
