Pyseqfile is a python wrapper on top of [seq_file](https://github.com/noporpoise/seq_file) which allow for reading multiple sequence file formats.

Currently supports:

FASTA & FASTQ

TO DO:

* SAM & BAM (make seq_file with htslib)
* gzipped FASTA
* gzipped FASTQ

# Install

pip install pyseqfile

# Usage

from pyseqfile import Reader

reader = Reader('path/to/seqfile{.fq,.fq,.fa,bam,.sam}')
for r in reader:
print(r)

# Benchmarks

pyseqfile is *much* faster than Biopython.
