Parameter handling
Use the methods registerStringOption_, registerInputFile_, registerOutputFile_, registerOutputPrefix_, registerDoubleOption_, registerIntOption_ and registerFlag_ in order to register parameters in registerOptionsAndFlags_. To access the values of registered parameters in the main_ method use methods getStringOption_ (also for input and output files), getDoubleOption_, getIntOption_,getStringList_(also for input and output file lists),getIntList_,getDoubleList_, and getFlag_. The values of certain options can be restricted using: setMinInt_, setMaxInt_, setMinFloat_, setMaxFloat_, setValidStrings_ and setValidFormats_. In order to format the help output, the method addEmptyLine_ can be used.

Detailed Description

Base class for TOPP applications.

This base class implements functionality used in most TOPP tools:

parameter handling
file handling
progress logging

If you want to create a new TOPP tool, please take care of the following:

derive a new class from this class
implement the registerOptionsAndFlags_ and main_ methods
add a Doxygen page for the tool and add the page to TOPP.doxygen
hide the derived class in the OpenMS documentation by using Doxygen condition macros.

Todo:: : replace writeLog_, writeDebug_ with a logger concept we'd need something like -VLevels [LOGGERS] to specify which loggers shall print something the '-log' flag should clone all output to the log-file (maybe with custom [LOGGERS]), which can either be specified directly or is equal to '-out' (if present) with a ".log" suffix maybe a new LOGGER type (TOPP), which is only usable on TOPP level?

Member Function Documentation

◆ addDataProcessing_() [1/3]

void addDataProcessing_	(	ConsensusMap &	map,
		const DataProcessing &	dp
	)		const

protected

Data processing setter for consensus maps.

◆ addDataProcessing_() [2/3]

void addDataProcessing_	(	FeatureMap &	map,
		const DataProcessing &	dp
	)		const

protected

Data processing setter for feature maps.

◆ addDataProcessing_() [3/3]

void addDataProcessing_	(	PeakMap &	map,
		const DataProcessing &	dp
	)		const

protected

Data processing setter for peak maps.

◆ addEmptyLine_()

void addEmptyLine_ ( )

protected

Adds an empty line between registered variables in the documentation.

◆ addText_()

void addText_ ( const String & text )

private

Adds a left aligned text between registered variables in the documentation e.g. for subdividing the documentation. This should not be usable for derived classes, since this formatting is not carried over to INI files and thus INI files might lack important information. Instead, subdivision of parameters should be achieved using TOPPSubsections with appropriate description Currently only used for "Common TOPP options" within TOPPBase.cpp

◆ checkIfIniParametersAreApplicable_()

void checkIfIniParametersAreApplicable_ ( const Param & ini_params )

protected

Checks if the parameters of the provided ini file are applicable to this tool.

This method does not abort execution of the tool, but will warn the user through stderr! It is called automatically whenever a ini file is loaded.

◆ checkParam_()

void checkParam_	(	const Param &	param,
		const String &	filename,
		const String &	location
	)		const

protected

Checks top-level entries of param according to the information during registration.

Only top-level entries and allowed subsections are checked. Checking the content of the subsection is the duty of the algorithm it is passed to.

This method does not abort execution of the tool, but will warn the user through stderr! It is called automatically in the main method.

Parameters

param	Parameters to check
filename	The source file name
location	Exact location inside the source file

◆ enableLogging_()

void enableLogging_ ( ) const

private

Ensures that at least some default logging destination is opened for writing in append mode.

Note: This might be invoked at various places early in the startup process of the TOPP tool. Thus we cannot consider the ini file here. The final logging destination is determined in main().

The subsection extends until the last colon (":"). If there is no subsection, the empty string is returned.

◆ getSubsectionDefaults_() [1/2]

Param getSubsectionDefaults_ ( ) const

private

Returns a single Param object containing all subsection parameters.

Returns: A single Param object containing all parameters for all registered subsections.

See also: getSubsectionDefaults_(String)

◆ getSubsectionDefaults_() [2/2]

virtual Param getSubsectionDefaults_ ( const String & section ) const

privatevirtual

This method should return the default parameters for subsections.

It is called once for each registered subsection, when writing the example ini file.

Reimplement this method to set the defaults written in the 'write_ini' method.

Note: Make sure to set the 'advanced' flag of the parameters right in order to hide certain parameters from inexperienced users.

◆ getToolPrefix()

String getToolPrefix ( ) const

Returns the prefix used to identify the tool.

This prefix is later found in the INI file for a TOPP tool. f.e.: "FileConverter:1:"

◆ getToolUserDefaults_()

Param getToolUserDefaults_ ( const String & tool_name ) const

private

Returns the user defaults for the given tool, if any default parameters are stored in the users home.

◆ inputFileReadable_()

void inputFileReadable_	(	const String &	filename,
		const String &	param_name
	)		const

protected

Checks if an input file exists, is readable and is not empty.

The filename is a URI to the file to be read and param_name gives the name of the parameter , e.g. "in" which specified the filename (this is useful for error messages when the file cannot be read, so the user can immediately see which parameter to change). If no parameter is responsible for the name of the input file, then leave param_name empty.

Parameters

filename	An absolute or relative path+filename
param_name	Name of the parameter the filename value was provided by

Exceptions

Exception::FileNotFound	is thrown if the file is not found
Exception::FileNotReadable	is thrown if the file is not readable
Exception::FileEmpty	is thrown if the file is empty

Implemented in NucleicAcidSearchEngine, TOPPGNPSExport, and TOPPFLASHDeconv.

◆ outputFileWritable_()

void outputFileWritable_	(	const String &	filename,
		const String &	param_name
	)		const

protected

Checks if an output file is writable.

The filename is a URI to the file to be written and param_name gives the name of the parameter , e.g. "out" which specified the filename (this is useful for error messages when the file cannot be written, so the user can immediately see which parameter to change). If no parameter is responsible for the name of the output file, then leave param_name empty.

Exceptions

Exception::UnableToCreateFile is thrown if the file cannot be created

name	Name of the option in the command line and the INI file
argument	Argument description text for the help output

		bool	required = `true`,
		bool	advanced = `false`
	)

protected

Registers an output file prefix used for tools with multiple file output.

Tools should follow the convention to name output files PREFIX_[0..N-1].EXTENSION. For example, a tool that splits mzML files into multiple mgf files should create files: splitted_0.mgf, splitted_1.mgf, ... if splitted got passed as prefix.

Note: setting format(s) via setValidFormat_ for an output prefix can be used to export e.g. valid CTD files that contain information on the expected output file types. In theory, it is possible to output different types and list them here but this should be avoided for cleanlyness (prefer multiple separate outputs). This could be left empty in case of an unknown amount of different extensions that are produced but is highly recommended.

Parameters

name	Name of the option in the command line and the INI file
argument	Argument description text for the help output
default_value	Default value (remember, no extension is specified here)
description	Description of the parameter. Indentation of newline is done automatically.
required	If the user has to provide a value i.e. if the value has to differ from the default (checked in get-method)
advanced	If true, this parameter is advanced and by default hidden in the GUI.
