Bio::Chado::Schema is a standard DBIx::Class layer for Chado, in Perl. DBIx::Class is an object-relational mapping system similar to other ORMs in other languages, such as Python's SQLAlchemy and Java's Hibernate.

Bio::Chado::Schema is still in an early stage of development, please consider contributing to the project. See the Development section below.

Bio::Chado::Schema is a standard set of Perl modules that should work with any database supported by DBIx::Class. So far, it has been used successfully with Chado schemas running on both PostgreSQL and Oracle. Please try it out and report back to the mailing list!

Development

Development of Bio::Chado::Schema uses git, hosted on GitHub: http://github.com/rbuels/bio-chado-schema

To-Do

  • Need many more many_to_many relationships throughout.
  • Need more compatibility with BioPerl. Thoughts on how best to do this?
