MetaboLights Utils Library

---

MetaboLigts-utils is a lightweight library to read and update ISA files, download MetaboLights studies.

---

Selected Features

---

• Read and update ISA files with minimum pyhton package dependency.
• Read ISA table files (s_.txt, a_.txt, m_*.txt) with Pagination support.
• Multi-column filters and sort options on ISA table files.
• Define custom filters and sorters
• Apply actions on ISA table files to manuplate them.
• Json serializable models with pydantic library.

Installation

---

The following command installs metabolights-utils from the Python Package Index. You will need a working installation of Python 3.8+ and pip3.

pip install -U sphinx

Read and update Investigation files

---

Read and update an investigation file. Returned objects are json serializable so you can use them with REST APIs.

    assert assay_read.measurement_type.term_accession_number == "test accesion"
    os.remove(tmp_path)

ISA table file pagination

---

• Update page size (number of rows in a page) and read results with the selected page size.
• Define custom row offset and read rows with a limit. Row indices in a page can be unordered after filter and sort operations. You can get actual row index of the selected row using result.
• Read only the selected columns you defined. If a selected column has additional columns (Term Source REF, etc) and these columns are not defined, they will be in result. Column names may be different than header if there are multiple column with same header.
• If no column selected, columns will be ordered. If columns are selected, result will contain columns in the selected order. You can get actual column index of a column using result.

---

Example 1: Read ISA table file

---

Read selected assay file (a_.txt) rows and columns with pagination support. You can use same methods with sample (s_.txt) and metabolite assignment (m_*.tsv) files.

Multi-column filters and sort options

---

• Case sensitive or case insensitive multi-column sort is supported.
  • Multi-column sorts with ascending and descending order can be defined. For example; You can sort by 'Parameter Value[Gender]' as ascending and Parameter Value[Age] as descending order.
  • Columns can be sorted as different data type. Supported sort data types are str, int, float and datetime. datetime pattern can be defined for datetime data type.
  • Sort orders for invalid and empty values can be defined. For example, If sort value order is defined as VALID_EMPTY_INVALID, invalid values will follow empty values and empty values will follow valid values. This value order option is applicable for int, datetime and float data types. All combinations are poossible for EMPTY, INVALID, VALID values.
  • You can define your custom sorters. "enum-sorter" as a custom sorter has been already implemented. It sorts enums with given string values.
• There are 10 different filters (with inverse options). Any filter can be applied to any column. Multiple filters can be defined.
  • CONTAINS / NOT CONTAINS
  • EQUAL / NOT EQUAL
  • STARTSWITH / NOT STARTSWITH
  • ENDSWITH / NOT ENDSWITH
  • GREATER / NOT GREATER
  • GREATER_EQUAL / NOT GREATER_EQUAL
  • LESS / NOT LESS
  • LESS_EQUAL / NOT LESS_EQUAL
  • REGEX (regex match) / NOT REGEX (not regex match)
  • EMPTY / NOT EMPTY (None or empty)
• You can define multiple filters. If one filter rejects row, row will not be selected (AND operation).
• You can define one or more columns for a filter. If there are multiple columns for a filter. If any column matches, the filter selects the row (OR operation).
• If you do not select any column for a filter, the filter will evaluate all columns. If filter matches with any column, it will select the row. You can define column names to skip them while evaluating all rows.
• You can define your custom filters. Some custom filters have been already implemented.
  • "between-equal": Returns row if value between given min and max. Min and max inputs can be datetime, str, int or float.
  • "valid-datetime" Return row if value is valid datetime with given pattern. Default pattern is DD/MM/YYYY.
  • "valid-number": Return row if value is valid int or float.
  • "enum-contains": Gets a map to define a text for each enum value. Returns row if input parameter is in the enum-mapped text. Enums can be any allowed type (str, int, etc.).
    • Example: Enum values are 1, 2, 3, 4. Enum values are mapped to 1: "In Review", 2: "Published", 3: "In Curation", 4: "Public". If parameter is "Pub", all rows contain enum value 2 and 4 will be returned.

Example

Users can apply multiple filters and sort operations before retriving ISA table rows.
