Export Hypotheses

glycresoft stores its search spaces in a SQLite3 database like the one it writes hypotheses into. This lets it search for entries quickly, but the format is not as easy to read through as a text file, and adds extra layers of complexity to find information requiring complex SQL queries. It’s possible to export hypotheses in several other formats.

glycresoft export glycan-hypothesis

Write each theoretical glycan composition in CSV format

glycresoft export glycan-hypothesis [OPTIONS] DATABASE_CONNECTION
                                    HYPOTHESIS_IDENTIFIER

Options

-o, --output-path <path>

Path to write to instead of stdout

-i, --importable

Make the file importable for later re-use, with less information. [default: False]

Arguments

DATABASE_CONNECTION

Required argument <databaseconnectionparam> A connection URI for a database, or a path on the file system

HYPOTHESIS_IDENTIFIER

glycresoft export glycopeptide-hypothesis

Write each theoretical glycopeptide in CSV format

glycresoft export glycopeptide-hypothesis [OPTIONS] DATABASE_CONNECTION
                                          HYPOTHESIS_IDENTIFIER
