Detailed Description

Helper class for looking up spectra based on different attributes.

This class provides functions for looking up spectra that are stored in a vector (e.g. MSExperiment::getSpectra()) by index, retention time, native ID, scan number (extracted from the native ID), or by a reference string containing any of the previous information ("spectrum reference").

Spectrum reference formats

Formats for spectrum references are defined by regular expressions, that must contain certain fields (named groups, i.e. "(?<GROUP>...)") referring to usable information. The following named groups are recognized and can be used to look up spectra:

INDEX0: spectrum index, i.e. position in the vector of spectra, counting from zero
INDEX1: spectrum index, i.e. position in the vector of spectra, counting from one
ID: spectrum native ID
SCAN: scan number (extracted from the native ID)
RT: retention time

: For example, if the format of a spectrum reference is "scan=123", where 123 is the scan number, the expression "scan=(?<SCAN>\\d+)" can be used to extract that number, allowing look-up of the corresponding spectrum.

: Reference formats are registered via addReferenceFormat(). Several possible formats can be added and will be tried in order by the function findByReference().

Native ID Parsing: For standalone parsing of spectrum native IDs (without spectrum lookup), use SpectrumNativeIDParser directly:
// Extract scan number from native ID using CV accession

Int scan = SpectrumNativeIDParser::extractScanNumber("scan=42", "MS:1000768");

// Check if a string is a native ID

if (SpectrumNativeIDParser::isNativeID(spectrum_id))

{

String regex = SpectrumNativeIDParser::getRegExFromNativeID(spectrum_id);

// use regex for further processing...

}

OpenMS::SpectrumNativeIDParser::extractScanNumber
static Int extractScanNumber(const String &native_id, const boost::regex &scan_regexp, bool no_error=false)
Extract the scan number from the native ID of a spectrum using a regular expression.

OpenMS::SpectrumNativeIDParser::isNativeID
static bool isNativeID(const String &id)
Check if a spectrum identifier is a native ID from a vendor file.

OpenMS::SpectrumNativeIDParser::getRegExFromNativeID
static std::string getRegExFromNativeID(const String &native_id)
Determine the regular expression to extract scan/index numbers from native IDs.

◆ addReferenceFormat()

void addReferenceFormat ( const String & regexp )

Register a possible format for a spectrum reference.

Parameters

[in] regexp Regular expression defining the format

Exceptions

Exception::IllegalArgument if regexp does not contain any of the recognized named groups

The regular expression defining the reference format must contain one or more of the recognized named groups defined in SpectrumLookup::regexp_names_.

◆ empty()

bool empty ( ) const

Check if any spectra were set.

◆ extractScanNumber() [1/2]

static Int extractScanNumber	(	const String &	native_id,
		const boost::regex &	scan_regexp,

	)

static

Extract the scan number from the native ID of a spectrum.

Parameters

[in]	native_id	Spectrum native ID
[in]	scan_regexp	Regular expression to use (must contain the named group "?<SCAN>")
[in]	no_error	Suppress the exception on failure

Exceptions

Exception::ParseError if the scan number could not be extracted (unless no_error is set)

Returns: Scan number of the spectrum (or -1 on failure to extract)

Deprecated:: Use SpectrumNativeIDParser::extractScanNumber() instead for better discoverability.

◆ extractScanNumber() [2/2]

static Int extractScanNumber	(	const String &	native_id,
		const String &	native_id_type_accession

Extract the scan number from the native ID using a CV accession.

Parameters

[in]	native_id	Spectrum native ID
[in]	native_id_type_accession	CV accession specifying the native ID format

Returns: Scan number of the spectrum (or -1 on failure to extract)

		bool	count_from_one = `false`
	)		const

Look up spectrum by index (position in the vector of spectra).

Parameters

[in]	index	Index to look up
[in]	count_from_one	Do indexes start counting at one (default: zero)?

Exceptions

Exception::ElementNotFound if no matching spectrum was found

Returns: Index of the spectrum that matched

Template Parameters

SpectrumContainer Spectrum container class, must support size and operator[]

Parameters

[in]	spectra	Container of spectra
[in]	scan_regexp	Regular expression for matching scan numbers in spectrum native IDs (must contain the named group "?<SCAN>")

Exceptions

Exception::IllegalArgument if scan_regexp does not contain "?<SCAN>" (and is not empty)

Spectra are indexed by retention time, native ID and scan number. In all cases it is expected that the value for each spectrum will be unique. Setting scan_regexp to the empty string ("") disables extraction of scan numbers; look-ups by scan number will fail in that case.
