Pre-release

This release is a pre-release and may not be stable for production use.

BioC XML format can be used to share text documents and annotations.

bioc exposes an API familiar to users of the standard library marshal and pickle modules.

Development of bioc happens on GitHub: https://github.com/yfpeng/pengyifan-pybioc

Getting started

Installing bioc

$ pip install --pre bioc

Encoding the BioC collection object `collection’:

import bioc
# Serialize ``collection`` to a BioC formatted ``str``.
bioc.dumps(collection)

# Serialize ``collection`` as a BioC formatted stream to ``fp``.
with open(filename, 'w') as fp
    bioc.dump(collection, fp)

Compact encoding:

import bioc
bioc.dumps(collection, pretty_print=False)

Decoding the BioC XML file:

import json
# Deserialize ``s`` to a BioC collection object.
collection = json.loads(s)
# Deserialize ``fp`` to a BioC collection object.
with open(filename, 'r') as fp:
    bioc.load(fp)

Requirements
