Bio-Glite version 0.01

Bio::Glite is an interface to G-language Genome Analysis Environment through its REST web service (http://www.g-language.org). This module allows almost everything G-language GAE can do, without installing all necessary tookits and modules.

Advantage of this module over the standard installation of G-language GAE package is:

1. Easy installation from CPAN
2. Extremely light-weight (less than 1000 lines of code)
3. Does not require much CPU/RAM (all calculation is done on the cloud) Disadvantages includes:
4. Slower analysis speed
5. Internet connection is required
6. No other software interfaces such as the G-language Shell

Quick Example:

use Bio::Glite;

my $gb = load('mgen'); # could also be a local GenBank/EMBL/FASTA file, or an accession number

      foreach my $cds ($gb->cds()){
          say ">" . $gb->{$cds}->{gene};
          say $gb->{$cds}->{translation};
      }

      gcskew($gb, -cumulative=>1, -at=>1);

      say $gb->{filename};

      say gcsi($gb);
