IDRipper

IDRipper splits the protein/peptide identifications of an idXML file into several idXML files according their annotated file origin.

Example

Assuming each peptide identification in a given idXML file is annotated with its file origin (e.g. IDRipper_test.idXML) :

<userParam type="string" name="file_origin" value="IDMerger1_test.idXML"> or
<userParam type="string" name="file_origin" value="IDMerger2_test.idXML">

Obviously the file contains protein/peptide identifications of IDMerger1_test.idXML and IDMerger2_test.idXML.

Calling IDRipper with an input file (here: -in IDRipper_test.idXML) and an output directory (via out or out_path) will result in two idXML files stored in the specified directory and named according to their file origin.

In theory, merging files with IDMerger and splitting the resulting file with IDRipper will result in the original input files.

NOTE: The meta value "file_origin" is removed by the IDSplitter!

Note: Currently mzIdentML (mzid) is not directly supported as an input/output format of this tool. Convert mzid files to/from idXML using IDFileConverter if necessary.

IDRipper -- Split protein/peptide identification file into several files according to annotated file origin.
Version: 2.3.0 Jan  9 2018, 17:46:23, Revision: 38ae115

Usage:
  IDRipper <options>

Options (mandatory options marked with '*'):
  -in <file>*        Input file, in which the protein/peptide identifications must be tagged with 'file_origi
                     n' (valid formats: 'idXML')
  -out <file>        The path to this file is used as the output directory. (valid formats: 'idXML')
  -out_path <file>   Directory for the output files after ripping according to 'file_origin'. If 'out_path' 
                     is set, 'out' is ignored.
                     
Common TOPP options:
  -ini <file>        Use the given TOPP INI file
  -threads <n>       Sets the number of threads allowed to be used by the TOPP tool (default: '1')
  -write_ini <file>  Writes the default configuration file
  --help             Shows options
  --helphelp         Shows all options (including advanced)
