SBG API python client bindings
Project description
sevenbridges-python
sevenbridges-python is a Python library that provides an interface for the Seven Bridges Platform the Cancer Genomics Cloud and Cavatica public APIs. It works with Python versions 3.6+.
The Seven Bridges Platform is a cloud-based environment for conducting bioinformatic analyses. It is a central hub for teams to store, analyze, and jointly interpret their bioinformatic data. The Platform co-locates analysis pipelines alongside the largest genomic datasets to optimize processing, allocating storage and compute resources on demand.
The The Cancer Genomics Cloud (CGC), powered by Seven Bridges, is also a cloud-based computation environment. It was built as one of three pilot systems funded by the National Cancer Institute to explore the paradigm of colocalizing massive genomics datasets, like The Cancer Genomics Atlas (TCGA), alongside secure and scalable computational resources to analyze them. The CGC makes more than a petabyte of multi-dimensional data available immediately to authorized researchers. You can add your own data to analyze alongside TCGA using predefined analytical workflows or your own tools.
The Cavatica, powered by Seven Bridges, is a data analysis and sharing platform designed to accelerate discovery in a scalable, cloud-based compute environment where data, results, and workflows are shared among the world's research community. Cavatica is built in collaboration with the Children Hospital of Philadelphia and it is focused on pediatric data.
Documentation

Authentication and Configuration
In order to authenticate with the API, you should pass the following items to sevenbridges-python:
(a) Your authentication token (b) The API endpoint you will be interacting with. This is either the endpoint for the Seven Bridges Platform or for the Seven Bridges Cancer Genomics Cloud (CGC) or for CAVATICA.
You can find your authentication token on the respective pages:
- https://igor.sbgenomics.com/developer for the Seven Bridges Platform
- https://cgc.sbgenomics.com/developer for the CGC
- https://cavatica.sbgenomics.com/developer for Cavatica
The API endpoints for each environment are:
- https://api.sbgenomics.com/v2 for the Seven Bridges Platform
- https://cgc-api.sbgenomics.com/v2 for the CGC.
- https://cavatica-api.sbgenomics.com/v2 for CAVATICA
For more information about the API, including details of the available parameters for each API call, you should check the API documentation before using this library:
- http://docs.sevenbridges.com/docs/the-api for the Seven Bridges Platform.
- http://docs.cancergenomicscloud.org/docs/the-cgc-api for the CGC.
- http://docs.cavatica.org/docs/the-api for CAVATICA
Initialize configuration using the configuration file
Once you obtain your authentication token, you can pass it to the Config object. You can instantiate the API object by passing the appropriate configuration. There are three ways you can pass configure the library:
- Pass parameters
url
andtoken
explicitly when initializing the config object. - Put the API endpoint and token in the environment variables
API_URL
andAUTH_TOKEN
respectively. - Use the configuration file
$HOME/.sevenbridges/credentials
with defined parameters.
Explicit initialization
import sevenbridges as sbg
api = sbg.Api(url='https://api.sbgenomics.com/v2', token='<TOKEN_HERE>')
Initialization via environment variables
import os
import sevenbridges as sbg
# Usually these would be set in the shell beforehand
os.environ['SB_API_ENDPOINT'] = 'https://api.sbgenomics.com/v2'
os.environ['SB_AUTH_TOKEN'] = '<TOKEN_HERE>'
api = sbg.Api()
Initialization via config file
import sevenbridges as sbg
config = sbg.Config(profile='cgc')
api = sbg.Api(config=config)
Notes on config file format
The $HOME/.sevenbridges/credentials
file has a simple .ini file
format, for example:
[default]
api_endpoint = https://api.sbgenomics.com/v2
auth_token = <TOKEN_HERE>
[cgc]
api_endpoint = https://cgc-api.sbgenomics.com/v2
auth_token = <TOKEN_HERE>
[cavatica]
api_endpoint = https://cavatica-api.sbgenomics.com/v2
auth_token = <TOKEN_HERE>
Initializing the sevenbridges-python library
The API object represents the central resource for querying, saving and performing all other actions on your resources. Once you have instantiated the configuration class, pass it to the API class constructor.
import sevenbridges as sbg
api_config = sbg.Config() # Or any other choice of initialization method
api = sbg.Api(config=api_config)
Examples
The following code illustrates the way the library should be used. For more detailed examples consult the documentation, hosted on readthedocs.
import sevenbridges as sbg
api_config = sbg.Config() # Or any other choice of initialization method
api = sbg.Api(config=api_config)
# Get current user
user = api.users.me()
# Query your projects
projects = api.projects.query(limit=100)
# Fetch project files
project = projects[0]
files = project.get_files()
