genomepy.providers.search

genomepy.providers.search(term: str, provider: str = None, exact=False, size=False)

Search for term in genome names and descriptions (if term contains text. Case-insensitive), assembly accession IDs (if term starts with GCA_ or GCF_), or taxonomy IDs (if term is a number).

If provider is specified, search only that specific provider, else search all providers.

Note: exact accession ID search on UCSC may return different patch levels.

Parameters

• term (str, int) – Search term, case-insensitive, allows regex.

• provider (str , optional) – Only search the specified provider (faster).

• exact (bool, optional) – term must be an exact match

• size (bool, optional) – Show absolute genome size.

Yields

list – genome name, provider and metadata
