NAME

stream-pubmed - dump a local NCBI PubMed archive in compressed form

SYNOPSIS

stream-pubmed [[ -path] dir] [-asn |-xml]

DESCRIPTION

fetch-pubmed reads a list of record IDs from standard input and prints to standard output the corresponding portions of a local NCBI PubMed archive produced by archive-pubmed(1). Unlike fetch-pubmed(1), it leaves the contents compressed (and as such does not support any cleanup along the way).

OPTIONS

[-pathdir
Place the local archive in dir.
-asn
Stream ASN.1.
-xml
Stream XML (default).

ENVIRONMENT

EDIRECT_PUBMED_MASTER
Local archive directory to use in the absence of -path. Expected to hold an absolute path; mandatory when not supplying a path on the command line.

SEE ALSO

archive-pubmed(1), edict(1), fetch-pubmed(1), phrase-search(1), rchive(1).
