Upload a Genbank File to a local Mysql BioSQL database

gb_to_biosql.py

#!/usr/bin/env python
"""Load a genbankfile into BioSQL

You will need to adjust the database parameters and have a BioSQL database set
up. See:

http://biopython.org/wiki/BioSQL

adapted from bchapmanns github script
https://github.com/chapmanb/bcbb > gff > Scripts > gff > gff_to_biosql.py

Depending on the size of the sequences being loaded, you may also get errors on
loading very large chromosome sequences. Updating these options can help:

    set global max_allowed_packet=1000000000;
    set global net_buffer_length=1000000;

Usage:
    gb_to_biosql.py <genbank file>

Maybe you fogret a "v" in line 63 after "sys.arg".
When I try your code, there is an error like
"Traceback (most recent call last):
File "gb_to_biosql.py", line 66, in
main(sys.argv[1])
File "gb_to_biosql.py", line 60, in main
raide
NameError: global name 'raide' is not defined"
do you kenow how to fix it ?

Use raise instead of "raide" ;)
