💖 DBGETURL(1e) — the EMBOSS Manual for Debian, but make it cute 💖

okay bestie, welcome to dbgeturl, a page from the EMBOSS Manual for Debian (that's section 1e if you were wondering, iykyk) 🦋

✨ NAME ✨

dbgeturl — it grabs you the links to database entries for a named database, a data type and a data identifier. that's the whole vibe 🎀

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

dbgeturl -database string -datatype string -identifier string
         [-outfile outfile]

dbgeturl -help

💅 DESCRIPTION 💅

so dbgeturl is a command line program from EMBOSS ("the European Molecular Biology Open Software Suite"). no cap, that's the whole name. 🫶

it lives in the "Utils:Misc" command group(s). iconic behavior honestly.

🎀 OPTIONS 🎀

🍓 Input section

  • -database string — this is the name of a database from the catalogue of public databases in the EMBOSS data file DRCAT.dat. if you're sitting there like "bestie which databases even exist" — use dbfind. and if you have a database name but you're not sure it's valid, use isdbname. 💖
  • -datatype string — this is the name of a retrievable datatype from the catalogue of public databases in the EMBOSS data file DRCAT.dat. the names are terms from the 'data' branch of the EDAM ontology, http://edamontology.sourceforge.net/. if you don't know which retrievable datatypes exist for a given database, use dbtellquery. if you have a datatype name but you're not sure it's valid, use isdbdata. slay. ✨
  • -identifier string — this is a data identifier (like, e.g. a sequence accession number) that's used to specify the data (of type 'datatype') to retrieve. if you're unsure of the data identifier(s) used for a given query (database/datatype), use dbtellquery. the types of data identifier are listed under the 'Data identifier' branch of the EDAM ontology (http://edamontology.sourceforge.net/). for example values, see the catalogue of public databases in the EMBOSS data file DRCAT.dat. and if you have a data identifier but you're unsure of its type, use idtell. 🧚

🦋 Required section

⭐ Advanced section

(still empty, the calm before the output section 🌸)

👑 Output section

  • -outfile outfile — Default value: stdout. so if you don't say anything, it just yells the result straight at your terminal. main character energy, honestly. 💅
