💖 CACHEENSEMBL 💖

okay bestie, so this is the manual page for cacheensembl — that's manual section 1e if you're keeping track — and yes, the name is a mouthful, but it's literally just a little program that generates a server cache file for an Ensembl server. that's the whole vibe. iykyk. ✨

✨ NAME ✨

cacheensembl — Generates server cache file for an Ensembl server

like. that's it. that's the job. she makes cache files. she's an icon, she's a legend, and she is the moment. 👑

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

cacheensembl -servername string [-outfile outfile] -cachefile outfile

cacheensembl -help

so you either run the whole thing with a server name and your output files, or you hit -help and she tells you about herself. self-care fr fr 💅

🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

cacheensembl is a command line program from EMBOSS, aka “the European Molecular Biology Open Software Suite”. yes, that's the full government name, no cap. 🫶

she belongs to the "Data resources" command group(s). so if you're scrolling the EMBOSS family tree looking for your girl, that's the neighborhood she lives in. 🏡✨

🎀 OPTIONS 🎀

💜 Input section

  • -servername string — the name of the server, bestie. you gotta tell her which Ensembl server you're talking about, she can't read minds (yet).

💜 Output section

  • -outfile outfile — where the output goes.
    • Default value: stdout
  • -cachefile outfile — where the cache file itself gets written.
    • Default value: server.$(servername)
👀 note the defaults!! if you don't say anything, -outfile just beams itself straight to stdout, and -cachefile names itself server.$(servername) — which is giving "i named the file after my server" energy and honestly? valid.
