**Bioservices** is a Python package that provides access to many Bioinformatices Web Services (e.g.,
UniProt) and a framework to easily implement Web Services wrappers (based on
WSDL/SOAP or REST protocols).

:target: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/cokelaer/bioservices/master/doc/bioservices.png
The primary goal of **BioServices** is to use Python as a glue language to provide
a programmatic access to several Bioinformatics Web Services. By doing so, elaboration of new
applications that combine several of the wrapped Web Services is fostered.
One of the main philosophy of **BioServices** is to make use of the existing
biological databases (not to re-invent new databases) and to alleviates the
needs for expertise in Web Services for the developers/users.
BioServices provides access to 25 Web Services including. For a quick start,
look at some notebooks here `github cokelaer/bioservices <https://github.com/cokelaer/bioservices/tree/master/notebooks/>`_ and here `github bioservices <https://github.com/bioservices/notebooks`_.
An up-to-date list of Web Services is provided within
the online `documentation <http://pythonhosted.org/bioservices/>`_.
Here is a small example using the UniProt Web Service to search for the zap70 specy in human
organism::
>>> from bioservices import UniProt
>>> u = UniProt(verbose=False)
>>> data = u.search("zap70+and+taxonomy:9606", frmt="tab", limit=3,
... columns="entry name,length,id, genes")
>>> print(data)
Entry name Length Entry Gene names
