The official Python interface to the g:Profiler [1] toolkit for enrichment analysis of functional (GO and other) terms. Note that this package provides a command-line tool, originally developed for inclusion into Galaxy [6] workflows; you may also wish to consider the third-party package [7] if you need to integrate g:Profiler analysis into a Python application.

Installation on Linux using pip

The pip tool [4] is the recommended method of installing Python packages.

Optionally create a virtual environment [2]:

$ virtualenv2 myenv
$ source myenv/bin/activate

Install the software with pip, see [3] for instructions:

$ pip install gprofiler-official

Make sure that the installed gprofiler.py script is on your $PATH. When using a virtual environment as shown above, this should happen automatically.

Run an example query:

$ gprofiler.py -o scerevisiae "swi4 swi6"

For detailed usage instructions, see:

$ gprofiler.py --help

Installation on Linux using the tarball

You may simply download the tarball from gprofiler-official PyPI page [5], extract it and use the gprofiler.py script without installation. The script is designed to be lightweight and not require any 3rd party modules. For detailed usage instructions, see:

$ gprofiler.py --help

Installation on other platforms

Please see [3] for package installation instructions on various platforms.
