query_entity_ContigSequence

Query the entity ContigSequence.

ContigSequences are strings of DNA. Contigs have an associated genome, but ContigSequences do not.. We can think of random samples of DNA as a set of ContigSequences. There are no length constraints imposed on ContigSequences -- they can be either very short or very long. The basic unit of data that is moved to/from the database is the ContigChunk, from which ContigSequences are formed. The key of a ContigSequence is the sequence's MD5 identifier.

Example:

    query_entity_ContigSequence -a 

The ContigSequence entity has the following relationship links:

HasSection ContigChunk
IsSequenceOf Contig

Command-Line Options

-is field,value

Limit the results to entities where the given field has the given value.

-like field,value

Limit the results to entities where the given field is LIKE (in the sql sense) the given value.

-op operator,field,value

Limit the results to entities where the given field is related to the given value based on the given operator.

The operators supported are as follows. We provide text based alternatives to the comparison operators so that extra quoting is not required to keep the command-line shell from confusing them with shell I/O redirection operators.

< or lt
> or gt
<= or le
>= or ge
=
LIKE
-a

Return all fields.

-h

Display a list of the fields available for use.

-fields field-list

Choose a set of fields to return. Field-list is a comma-separated list of strings. The following fields are available:

length

Output Format

The standard output is a tab-delimited file containing a column for each requested field.
