FilterConstructors: Constructor functions for filter objects

In jotsetung/mirtarbase: mirtarbase: a database of validated miRNA target gene interactions

Description

These functions allow to create filter objects that can be used to retrieve specific elements from the annotation database.

Usage

ExperimentFilter(value, condition = "==" )
PublicationFilter(value, condition = "==" )
SpeciesFilter(value, condition = "==", feature="gene" )
SupportTypeFilter(value, condition = "==" )
MirtarbaseIdFilter(value, condition="==")

Arguments

condition	The condition to be used in the comparison. For character values "=", "in" and "contains" are allowed, for numeric values (SeqstartFilter and SeqendFilter) "=", ">", ">=", "<" and "<=".
feature	For SpeciesFilter: allows to specify whether entries should be filtered by the genes of a certain species ("gene") or miRNAs from a certain species ("mirna").
value	The filter value, e.g., for PublicationFilter the Pubmed ID of the feature for which the data should be retrieved. Use functions listExperiments, listSpecies and listSupportTypes to retrieve all possible values for the respective filters.

Value

Depending on the function called an instance of: ExperimentFilter, PublicationFilter, SpeciesFilter, SupportTypeFilter, MirtarbaseIdFilter
