[Feature Request] Sage output as a pepXML file #130

Open sciordia opened 2 months ago

sciordia commented 2 months ago

I would like to import the results obtained with Sage into the Trans Proteomic Pipeline (TPP). I want to create a spectral library from the results but I would need the Sage output as a pepXML file. Would it be possible to add this export option in Sage, please?.

Thank you very much.

Best regards, Sergio

Hi Sergio,

I'm not really interested in supporting any additional XML based formats (it's 2024) directly in Sage. It should be possible to write an adaptor in python/R that takes the existing output files and maps them to whatever format you need!

Thank you very much for your answer @lazear, maybe you are right but pepXML is still a very common format and almost all programs work with it. It is the usual format for TPP, mokapot, etc. In any case, as you say, I will try to convert the TXT output file from Sage in R to pepXML, I hope to get it.

Thanks again for your time.

Best regards, Sergio

I'm happy to add a link to your tool in the Sage README if you put it on Github!
