NCBI taxdump handling for ASDB
This package is designed to help the antiSMASH database to handle NCBI taxid lookups using NCBI taxdump data.
The package contains both a Rust library as well as a command line tool asdb-taxa to
manage a local JSON-based cache of interesting taxa, allowing bulk database imports to speed up
compared to parsing directly from the taxdump files.
cargo install asdb-taxa
In order to use it, grab the latest taxdump collection and extract it. You'll also need a directory of antiSMASH database result json files.
Then, you can run the command line tool like
asdb-taxa init --cache asdb_cache.json --datadir path/to/asdb/jsons/ --mergeddump path/to/merged.dmp --taxdump path/to/rankedlineage.dmp
to initialise the cache and
asdb-taxa list --cache asdb_cache.json
to list the contents of the provided cache.
For using the library, see the API documentation.
