# convert UCSC gene files into GFF3 data

use strict;
use File::Basename 'basename';
use Getopt::Long;

my $executable = basename($0);

my ($SRC,$ORIGIN);
GetOptions('src:s'    => \$SRC,
	   'origin:i' => \$ORIGIN,
	   ) or die <<USAGE;
Usage: $0 [options] ucsc_file1 ucsc_file2...

Convert UCSC Genome Browser-format gene files into GFF3 version files.
Only the gene IDs and their locations come through.  You have to get
the comments and aliases some other way.

Options:

    -src    <string>   Choose a source for the gene, default "UCSC"
    -origin <integer>  Choose a relative position to number from, default is "1"

The resulting file is in GFF3 format and should be loaded into a
Bio::DB::GFF database using the following command:

 bp_bulk_load_gff.pl -c -d db1 --maxfeature 1000000000 --gff3_munge file.gff

USAGE

=head1 NAME

ucsc_genes2gff.pl - Convert UCSC Genome Browser-format gene files into GFF
files suitable for loading into gbrowse

=head1 SYNOPSIS

  % uscsc_genes2gff.pl [options] ucsc_file1 ucsc_file2...

Options:

    -src    <string>   Choose a source for the gene, default "UCSC"
    -origin <integer>  Choose a relative position to number from, default
is "1"

=head1 DESCRIPTION

This script massages the gene files available from the "tables" link
of the UCSC genome browser (genome.ucsc.edu) into a form suitable for
loading of gbrowse.  Warning: it only works with the gene tables.
Other tables, such as EST alignments, contours and repeats, have their
own formats which will require other scripts to parse.

To use this script, get one or more UCSC tables, either from the
"Tables" link on the browser, or from the UCSC Genome Browser FTP
site.  Give the table file as the argument to this script.  You may
want to provide an alternative "source" field.  Otherwise this script
defaults to "UCSC".

  % pucsc_genes2gff.pl -src RefSeq refseq_data.ucsc > refseq.gff

The resulting GFF file can then be loaded into a Bio::DB::GFF database
using the following command:

  % bulk_load_gff.pl -d <databasename> refseq.gff
