Description

Using the mzID function this package is able to parse mzIdentML files into an mzID class instance. Multiple files can be parsed in parallel into an mzIDCollection which is a list-like class that handles multiple mzID objects.

Details

The key functionalities are described in the following pages:

• mzID:Parse mzIdentML files

• mzID-class:Class to store the data from an mzIdentML file

• mzIDCollection-class:Class to store multiple mzID objects

• mzID-getters:Access the data stored in mzID and mzIDCollection objects

• flatten:Converts the content of an mzID object to a table with respect to the peptide-spectrum matches
