Bio::R...::Prank(3pm)

💖 Bio::R...::Prank — the manual, but make it a group chat 💖

okay bestie, so this is Bio::R...::Prank(3pm), from the User Contributed Perl Documentation collection, and honestly? it's giving "tiny wrapper, big responsibilities" ✨

---

🌸 NAME 🌸

Bio::Roary::External::Prank — it's a wrapper whose whole entire job is to run prank. that's it. that's the girl. 💅

---

🎀 VERSION 🎀

version 3.13.0 — yes, that's the number, don't come for me, it's literally right there 🫶

---

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

okay so the manpage says, and I quote-ish, "Wrapper to run cd-hit" — which is lowkey iconic of it, ngl, but the actual code below is what you're here for. copy it exactly, bestie, character for character, no improvising 🙈

use Bio::Roary::External::Prank;

     my $prank_obj = Bio::Roary::External::Prank->new(
       input_filename  => $fasta_file,
       output_filename => $fasta_file.'.aln',
       job_runner      => 'Local'
     );
     $prank_obj->run();

not me side-eyeing that the description says cd-hit while the module is very much about prank 😭 I'm just the messenger, the facts stay facts 💀

so like: you make a new object, you hand it an input_filename, an output_filename (here it's the fasta file with .aln glued on the end, obsessed with that), and a job_runner set to 'Local'. then you call ->run(). and then? alignment. ✨🧚
