Content

• conib: This folder contains curated BEL documents. Most have been organized by category (protein of interest, biological process of interest, pathway, etc.). Almost BEL documents correspond to a single publication, but a select few contain content from several due to topic-based curation.
• docs: This folder contains automatically generated HTML summaries of the content that can best be accesed through https://pharmacome.github.io/conib.
• notebooks: This folder contains various Jupyter notebooks associated with the repository. Since many of them use PyBEL-Jupyter, they may be best viewed using NBViewer.

Curation Planning

Here are a few links for navigating the GitHub issues and pull requests:

• Pull requests for curation
• Pull requests for recuration approved by a reviewer

Installation

conib can be installed from PyPI with the following command:

$ pip install conib

or the latest version can be installed from GitHub with:

$ pip install git+https://github.com/pharmacome/conib.git

Usage

The graph can be loaded with:

import conib

# Get a dictionary of names to graphs
graphs = conib.get_graphs()

# Get all BEL documents as a single graph
graph = conib.get_graph()

# Get all knowledge as INDRA statements
stmts = conib.get_indra_statements()
