Usage
The jbrowse-jupyter
package provides several utility functions to create and launch Dash JBrowse components in python applications and jupyter notebooks.
Configuring Components
create
(view_type, **kwargs)- creates a JBrowseConfig configuration object given a view_type- view_type: Choose from a LGV or CGV e.g
create
('LGV') orcreate
('CGV') Additional params:- genome: choose from one of our default genomes {hg19 or hg38} e.g
create
('LGV', genome="hg38") OR - conf: use a conf object, you can manually edit and pass json object.
e.g
create
('LGV', conf={"my-conf": "object"}) Note: you can manually create a conf following the https://jbrowse.org/jb2/docs/config_guide/ - if no genome or conf is passed, you will create an empty JBrowseConfig for that view type. defaults if you pass no params,an empty JBrowse config for a LGV (LinearGenomeView) will be created
- genome: choose from one of our default genomes {hg19 or hg38} e.g
- view_type: Choose from a LGV or CGV e.g
create_component
(conf, **kwargs) - creates and returns a Dash JBrowse component -> 'CGV' or 'LGV'. This component can be used as any Dash component in Dash applications.- conf: JBrowseConfig obj
- id: id for Dash components (opyional)
- dash_comp: 'CGV' or 'LGV', defaults to 'LGV' when none is passed
e.g
create_component
(cgv_with_conf.get_config(), dash_comp="CGV")
launch
(conf, **kwargs) - launches a LinearGenomeView Dash component in a Jupyter cell- id: id for Dash components
- dash_comp: 'CGV' or 'LGV', defaults to 'LGV' when none is passed
Warning: Only use
launch
in jupyter notebooks
JBrowseConfig
Quick overview of the JBrowseConfig API
The JBrowseConfig API allows us to set an assembly, add tracks, set default sessions, set custom color themes, and more.
JBrowseConfig().
-
set_assembly
(assembly_data, aliases, refname_aliases)- Sets the assembly subconfiguration
- for the refname_alias subconfiguration check out the JBrowse refname aliasing docs
-
add_df_track
(track_data, name, **kwargs)- requires DataFrame to have columns ['refName', 'start', 'end', 'name']
- refName and name columns must be strings, start and end must be int
- if the score column is present, it will create a Quantitative track else it will create a Feature track.
- not available for CGV
- params:
- df – pandas DataFrame with the track data.
- name (str) – (optional) name for the track
- overwrite (str) – (optional) flag wether or not to overwrite existing track.
- track_id (str) - (optional) trackId for the track
-
add_track
(data, **kwargs)- adds a track configuration given a file with track data
- currently supporting cram, bam, vcf gzipped, gff/gff3 gzipped, bigbed, bigwig file types.
- assumes an index exists within the same directory of the track data if no index url path is provided.
- currently supporting Wiggle, Variant, Feature and Alignments tracks
- params:
- data (str) – track file or url (currently only supporting url)
- name (str) – (optional) name for the track
- index (str) – (optional) index file for the track
- track_type (str) – (optional) track type. If none is passed, the api will infer one based on the file type
- overwrite (boolean) – (optional) overwrites existing track if it exists in list of tracks (default False)
-
delete_track
(track_id)- params:
- track_id (str) - trackId for the track to delete
- params:
-
set_location
(location)- initial location for when the browser first loads, syntax 'refName:start-end'
- e.g 'chrom1:500-1000'
- not available for CGV
-
set_default_session
(tracks_ids, display_assembly=True)- sets the default session given a list of track ids
- params:
- tracks_ids - list[str] list of track ids to display
- display_assembly (boolean) – display the assembly reference sequence track. default=True
-
set_theme
(primary, secondary=None, tertiary=None, quaternary=None)- sets the theme in the configuration given up to 4 hexadecimal colors
-
add_text_search_adapter
(ix_path, ixx_path, meta_path, adapter_id=None)- adds a trix text search adapter
- not available for CGV
-
get_config
() - returns the configuration object
Local file support
We currently support two ways of passing your local data to JBrowse Views.
For our Jupyter users, you can leverage the Jupyter server to host your files and pass those urls to the JBrowse views. You can find a detailed example in our local_support.ipynb
For those using colab notebooks,binder, jupyter and more you can use the JBrowse dev server.
JBrowse dev server
We also provide a simple http server configured with CORS that will allow you to serve your local files from a specified directory within your machine.
Note_ that the use of local files or the dev server provided is not recommended for production environments.
You can spin the dev server in two ways.
- Git clone this repo
- From the root of this repository, you will be able to run the python file named
serve.py
$ python serve.py
- You can choose your own port, host, and directory from which to serve your files. You can also press enter to choose all the defaults.
- Default PORT: 8080
- Default host: localhost
- Default directory: the current working directory -> os.getcwd() is used
- Now that the dev server is running you can use the url provided in the terminal to pass to your views.
- For example: the url to the data you wish to pass to the JBrowse view config for the local dev server running on port 8080 on local host will look like this "http://localhost:8080/"
e.g
jbrowse_conf.add_track("http://localhost:8080/<your-file-name>", name="test-demo")
Or you can make your own python file and run it to start the server.
- create a python file named dev_server.py and add the code below
import os
from jbrowse_jupyter import serve
if __name__ == "__main__":
serve(os.getcwd(), port=8080, host='localhost')
-
Run the python file
$ python dev_server.py
-
This will spin up a python simple http server with cors enabled. You can take a look at our implementation of our dev server here:
jbrowse_jupyter/dev_server.py
-
Now that the dev server is running you can use the url provided in the terminal to pass to your views.
- For example: the url to the data you wish to pass to the JBrowse view config for the local dev server running on port 8080 on local host will look like this "http://localhost:8080/"
e.g
jbrowse_conf.add_track("http://localhost:8080/<your-file-name>", name="test-demo")
