The Mass Spec Query Language (MassQL) is a domain specific language meant to be a succinct way to express a query in a mass spectrometry (MS) centric fashion. It is inspired by SQL, but it attempts to bake in assumptions of MS to make querying much more natural for MS users.

The SpectraQL package provides support for the MassQL language in R, for MS data represented by Spectra objects defined in Bioconductor’s Spectra package.

For an introduction and use cases see the package vignette or the package documentation.
