NAME

       Bio::Factory::AnalysisI - An interface to analysis tool factory

SYNOPSIS

       This is an interface module - you do not instantiate it.  Use
       Bio::Tools::Run::AnalysisFactory module:

         use Bio::Tools::Run::AnalysisFactory;
         my $list = Bio::Tools::Run::AnalysisFactory->new->available_analyses;

DESCRIPTION

       This interface contains all public methods for showing available analyses and for creating
       objects representing them.

APPENDIX

       This is actually the main documentation...

       If you try to call any of these methods directly on this "Bio::Factory::AnalysisI" object
       you will get a not implemented error message. You need to call them on a
       "Bio::Tools::Run::AnalysisFactory" object instead.

   available_categories
        Usage   : $factory->available_categories;
        Returns : an array reference with the names of
                  available categories
        Args    : none

       The analysis tools may be grouped into categories by their functional similarity, or by
       the similar data types they deal with. This method shows all available such categories.

   available_analyses
        Usage   : $factory->available_analyses;
                  $factory->available_analyses ($category);
        Returns : an array reference with the names of
                  all available analyses, or the analyses
                  available in the given '$category'
        Args    : none || category_name

       Show available analyses. Their names usually consist of category analysis names, separated
       by "::".

   create_analysis
        Usage   : $factory->create_analysis ($name);
        Returns : a Bio::Tools::Run::Analyis object
        Args    : analysis name

       A real factory method creating an analysis object. The created object gets all access and
       location information from the factory object.
