R: Export motifs in universalmotif format.

write_motifs {universalmotif}

R Documentation

Export motifs in universalmotif format.

Description

Write motifs as universalmotif objects to file. For optimal storage of universalmotif class motifs, consider using saveRDS() and readRDS(). Currently the universalmotif format is YAML-based, but this is subject to change.

Usage

write_motifs(motifs, file, minimal = FALSE, multifreq = TRUE,
  progress = FALSE, overwrite = FALSE, append = FALSE, BP = FALSE)

Arguments

`motifs`	See `convert_motifs()` for acceptable formats.
`file`	`character(1)` File name.
`minimal`	`logical(1)` Only write essential motif information.
`multifreq`	`logical(1)` Write `multifreq` slot, if present.
`progress`	`logical(1)` Show progress.
`overwrite`	`logical(1)` Overwrite existing file.
`append`	`logical(1)` Add to an existing motif file. Package version in existing motif file must be greater than 1.2.0.
`BP`	`logical(1)` Allows for the use of BiocParallel within `write_motifs()`. See `BiocParallel::register()` to change the default backend.

Value

NULL, invisibly.
