Documentation

genbank-parser

NPM version build status Test coverage npm download

This work was based on TeselaGen/ve-sequence-parsers.

Parse genbank files.

Usage

const fs = require('fs');
const genbankParser = require('genbank-parser');

const genbank = fs.readFileSync('./genbank.gb', 'utf-8');
const result = genbankParser(genbank);

Parsed fields

The parser tries to parse all fields described by the genbank documentation Additional properties are added: At the sequence level:

  • name: locus name

At the feature level

  • name: extracted from several possible feature notes. Default is /label

Example
