MIBiG taxonomy handling

NCBI taxdump handling for MIBiG

This package is designed to help the MIBiG database to handle NCBI taxid lookups using NCBI taxdump data.

The package contains both a Rust library as well as a command line tool mibig-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.

Installation

cargo install mibig-taxa

Usage

In order to use it, grab the latest taxdump collection and extract it. You'll also need a directory of MIBiG BGC entry json files.

Then, you can run the command line tool like

mibig-taxa init --cache mibig_cache.json --datadir path/to/mibig/jsons/ --mergeddump path/to/merged.dmp --taxdump path/to/rankedlineage.dmp

to initialise the cache and

mibig-taxa list --cache mibig_cache.json

to list the contents of the provided cache.

For using the library, see the API documentation.
