💖 Bio::Search::GenericDatabase — the vibe ✨

okay bestie, so this is a User Contributed Perl Documentation page, and the module we're hyping up today is Bio::Search::GenericDatabase. It's giving very "I'm the blueprint everyone else copies" energy, and honestly? Slay. 🎀

✨ NAME ✨

Bio::Search::GenericDatabase — a generic implementation of Bio::Search::DatabaseI. No cap, it's literally the generic one. 💅

---

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

use Bio::Search::GenericDatabase;

$db = Bio::Search::GenericDatabase->new( -name => 'my Blast db',
                                         -date => '2001-03-13',
                                         -length => 2352511,
                                         -entries => 250000 );

$name = $db->name();
$date = $db->date();
$num_letters = $db->letters();
$num_entries = $db->entries();

look at her go 🫶 make the object, then just ask it stuff. It's a whole conversation. Communication queen. 👑

🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

This module is the basic-girl (affectionate) implementation of Bio::Search::DatabaseI. It does the thing, it does it simply, and it does it well. If you want the full lore, the docs in that other module have you covered — this one is like the group chat summary, not the three-hour voice memo. 😭
