= mzML

MzML is a standard data format for encoding mass spectrometry data. For more information see mzML the specification at http://psidev.info/index.php?q=node/257

This library is a non-validating, read-only mzML parser for mzML version 1.1.x

It is built on top of the nokogiri gem for XML parsing, which itself relies on
the libxml2 C library. The library It is relatively fast

==USAGE:

    require 'mzml'
    mzml =  MzML::Doc.open("test.mzXML")
    # to iterate through spectra
    mzml.each do |spectrum|
      # ... do something interesting
    end
    # to get an Array of spectrum IDs
    mzml.spectrum_list
    # to fetch a specific spectrum, whose ID you already know
    mzml.spectrum("controllerType=0 controllerNumber=1 scan=1")

You can also get chromatograms
  mzml.each_chromatogram
  mzml.chromatogram("TIC")

== Note on Patches/Pull Requests

* Fork the project. It is hosted @ http://github.com/delagoya/mzml
* Make your feature addition or bug fix.
* Add tests for it. This is important so I don't break it in a
  future version unintentionally.
* Commit, do not mess with rakefile, version, or history.
  (if you want to have your own version, that is fine but bump version in a commit by itself I can ignore when I pull)
* Send me a pull request. Bonus points for topic branches.
