# gff-nostream

[![Build Status](https://img.shields.io/github/actions/workflow/status/cmdcolin/gff-nostream/push.yml?branch=master&logo=github&style=for-the-badge)](https://github.com/cmdcolin/gff-nostream/actions?query=branch%3Amaster+workflow%3APush+)

Parse GFF3 data. This is a simplified version of
[@gmod/gff](https://github.com/GMOD/gff-js) for with just basic parsing and no
node.js stream module usage

## Install

$ npm install --save gff-nostream

## Usage

```js
const { parseStringSync } = require('gff-nostream')
// or in ES6 (recommended)
import { parseStringSync } from 'gff-nostream'

const fs = require('fs')

// parse a string of gff3 synchronously
const stringOfGFF3 = fs.readFileSync('my_annotations.gff3', 'utf8')
const arrayOfThings = gff.parseStringSync(stringOfGFF3)
```

## Object format

### features

In GFF3, features can have more than one location. We parse features as
arrayrefs of all the lines that share that feature's ID. Values that are `.` in
the GFF3 are `null` in the output.

A simple feature that's located in just one place:

```json
[
{
"seq_id": "ctg123",
"source": null,
"type": "gene",
"start": 1000,
"end": 9000,
"score": null,
"strand": "+",
"phase": null,
"attributes": {
"ID": ["gene00001"],
"Name": ["EDEN"]
},
"child_features": [],
"derived_features": []
}
]
```

A CDS called `cds00001` located in two places:

```json
[
{
"seq_id": "ctg123",
"source": null,
"type": "CDS",
"start": 1201,
"end": 1500,
"score": null,
"strand": "+",
"phase": "0",
"attributes": {
"ID": ["cds00001"],
"Parent": ["mRNA00001"]
},
"child_features": [],
"derived_features": []
},
{
"seq_id": "ctg123",
"source": null,
"type": "CDS",
"start": 3000,
"end": 3902,
"score": null,
"strand": "+",
"phase": "0",
"attributes": {
"ID": ["cds00001"],
"Parent": ["mRNA00001"]
},
"child_features": [],
"derived_features": []
}
]
```
