little-bio-parser

A minimalistic parser for sequence alignments (fasta or stockholm formats).

The parser returns an iterator over the alignment records as (identifier, sequence) tuples.

Usage example:

>>> import lilbio
>>> parsed_records = lilbio.parse('alignment.fa', 'fasta')

Built over modified low-level parsers from Biopython (SimpleFastaParser function and StockholmIterator class).
