NAME

    Bio::KEGGI - Perl module to parse KEGG genome, ko and pathway files.
    

VERSION

    Version 0.1.5

SYNOPSIS

    use Bio::KEGGI;
    
    my $keggi = Bio::KEGGI->new(
        -file => 'keggfilename',
        -type => 'filetype',
    );
    
    while (my $kegg = $keggi->next_rec) {
        print $kegg->id, "\n";
    }
    
    Now supported KEGG file type are "genome", "ko", "pathway" and "gene".
    

DESCRIPTION

    Bio::KEGGI is used to parse KEGG files:

genome

    ftp://ftp.genome.jp/pub/kegg/genes/genome
    

ko

    ftp://ftp.genome.jp/pub/kegg/genes/ko
    

pathway

    ftp://ftp.genome.jp/pub/kegg/pathway/pathway

gene

    Organism gene entries. such as:
    
    ftp://ftp.genome.jp/pub/kegg/genes/organisms/aac/A.acidocaldarius.ent
