biobouncer: Validate Biological Identifiers and Inputs
Gene symbols, ontology terms, variant formats, and database
accessions are validated through one small application programming
interface (API), either offline against identifier patterns and bundled
snapshots or live against a source web service. Results are designed to
match those of the companion 'Python' package for the same inputs. Input
order and length are preserved, and errors are reported explicitly rather
than as a silent failure. Identifier patterns follow the registry and
nomenclature described in Hoyt et al. (2022)
<doi:10.1038/s41597-022-01807-3> and den Dunnen et al. (2016)
<doi:10.1002/humu.22981>.
