=head1 NAME

Bio::Tools::Run::Alignment::Blat  

=head1 SYNOPSIS

 use Bio::Tools::Run::Alignment::Blat;
 my $factory = Bio::Tools::Run::Alignment::Blat->new(-db => $database);
 # $report is a Bio::SearchIO-compliant object
 my $report = $factory->run($seqobj);

=head1 DESCRIPTION

Wrapper module for Blat program. This newer version allows for all parameters to
be set by passing them as an option to new().

Key bits not implemented yet (TODO):

=over 3

=item * Implement all needed L<Bio::Tools::Run::WrapperBase> methods

Missing are a few, including version().

=item * Re-implement using L<IPC::Run>

Would like to get this running under something less reliant on OS-dependent
changes within code.

=item * No .2bit or .nib conversions yet

These require callouts to faToNib or faTwoTwoBit, which may or may not be
installed on a user's machine.  We can possibly add functionality to
check for faToTwoBit/faToNib and other UCSC tools in the future.

=head1 FEEDBACK

=head2 Mailing Lists

User feedback is an integral part of the evolution of this and other
Bioperl modules. Send your comments and suggestions preferably to one
of the Bioperl mailing lists.  Your participation is much appreciated.

=head2 Support 

Please direct usage questions or support issues to the mailing list:

I<bioperl-l@bioperl.org>

rather than to the module maintainer directly. Many experienced and 
reponsive experts will be able look at the problem and quickly 
address it. Please include a thorough description of the problem 
with code and data examples if at all possible.

=head2 Reporting Bugs

Report bugs to the Bioperl bug tracking system to help us keep track
the bugs and their resolution.  Bug reports can be submitted via the

=head2 new

 Title   : new
 Usage   : $blat->new( -db => '' )
 Function: Create a new Blat factory
 Returns : A new Bio::Tools::Run::Alignment::Blat object
 Args    : -db       : Mandatory parameter. See db()
           -qsegment : see qsegment()
           -tsegment : see tsegment()
           Also, Blat parameters and flags are accepted: -t, -q, -minIdentity,
              -minScore, -out, -trimT, ...
           See Blat's manual for details.

 Usage   : $factory->program_name()
 Function: Get the program name
 Returns : string
 Args    : None

=cut

sub program_name {

=head2 program_dir

 Title   : program_dir
 Usage   : $factory->program_dir(@params)
 Function: returns the program directory, obtained from ENV variable.
 Returns : string
 Args    :

    return Bio::Root::IO->catfile($ENV{BLATDIR}) if $ENV{BLATDIR};

=head2 run

 Title   : run()
 Usage   : $obj->run($query)
 Function: Run Blat.
 Returns : A Bio::SearchIO object that holds the results

=head2 db

 Title   : db
 Usage   : $obj->db()
 Function: Get or set the file of database sequences (.fa , .nib or .2bit)

=head2 qsegment

 Title    : qsegment
 Usage    : $obj->qsegment('sequence_a:0-1000')
 Function : pass in a B<UCSC-compliant> string for the query sequence(s)
 Returns  : string
 Args     : string
 Note     : Requires the sequence(s) in question be 2bit or nib format
 Reminder : UCSC segment/regions coordinates are 0-based half-open (sequence
            begins at 0, but start isn't counted with length), whereas BioPerl
            coordinates are 1-based closed (sequence begins with 1, both start
            and end are counted in the length of the segment). For example, a
            segment that is 'sequence_a:0-1000' will have BioPerl coordinates of
            'sequence_a:1-1000', both with the same length (1000).

 Usage    : $obj->tsegment('sequence_a:0-1000')
 Function : pass in a B<UCSC-compliant> string for the target sequence(s)
 Returns  : string
 Args     : string
 Note     : Requires the sequence(s) in question be 2bit or nib format
 Reminder : UCSC segment/regions coordinates are 0-based half-open (sequence
            begins at 0, but start isn't counted with length), whereas BioPerl
            coordinates are 1-based closed (sequence begins with 1, both start

 Usage    : $obj->searchio{-writer => $writer}
 Function : Pass in additional parameters to the returned Bio::SearchIO parser
 Returns  : Hash reference with Bio::SearchIO parameters
 Args     : Hash reference
 Note     : Currently, this implementation overrides any passed -format
            parameter based on whether the output is changed ('out').  This
            may change if requested, but we can't see the utility of doing so,
            as requesting mismatched output/parser combinations is just a recipe
            for disaster
