ariadne database containing feature mappings for various biological databases. Each GML* file corresponds to one source database and includes a graph:
- edges link source features (
from) with target features (to) and contain paths to mappings when available (url) - nodes list the available features with their ariadne names (
name), database-specific names (specific) and self-generated identifiers (id)
*GML = Graph Modelling Language
GML files can be imported in R using the igraph library.
library(igraph)
# Set url
url <- "https://zenodo.org/records/18788726/files/ChocoPhlAn.gml"
# Import resource
graph <- read_graph(url, format = "gml")
Alternatively, all ariadne database can be fetched via the ariadne library.
library(ariadne)
# Fetch resources
graph <- ariadne()
# Visualise network
plotPath(graph)
