MetaboLights is a database for Metabolomics experiments and derived information. The database is cross-species, cross-technique and covers metabolite structures and their reference spectra as well as their biological roles, locations and concentrations, and experimental data from metabolic experiments.
MetaboLights - Online Editor is a Single Page Application (SPA) built upon Angular 7, and Redux framework provides MetaboLights users and curators with an intuitive and easy to use interface to create, edit and annotate their studies online.
MetaboLights Editor supports all browsers that are ES5-compliant (IE8 and below are not supported).

-
Install angular CLI to get started
-
Run
ng serve --serve-path /metabolights/editorfor a dev server. Navigate tohttp://localhost:4200/. The app will automatically reload if you change any of the source files.
Editor by default connects to MetaboLights DEV webservices (a development server to test new features). You may need to create a DEV account inorder to login and test.
If you would like run your own server, update the origin in /src/app/services/globals.ts file (by default this points to the MetaboLights development server)
Run ng build to build the project. The build artifacts will be stored in the dist/ directory. Use the --prod flag for a production build.
The editor is configured to connect to a server hosted on the same domain, incase if you want to connect to a server on different domain, update the /src/app/services/globals.ts file (origin) and you may need to enable CORS communication across different domains.
In order to run, there must be at least one configuration file present in the assets/configs/ directory, and an environment file that defines a few key variables. context indicates the deployment context as a string. This variable is used to select the corresponding config file from the assets/config/ directory. isTesting is a flag that is used to prevent the state store being initialized when components are being unit tested. It will be removed in a future release when the store implementation is replaced.
For an example of the values a context.config.json file is supposed to contain, you can consult src/environment.interface.ts
Run ng test to execute the unit tests via Karma.
Run ng e2e to execute the end-to-end tests via Protractor.
