CHANGES IN VERSION 0.1.0
New features
cBioDataPack
allows users to download packaged data objects from
download.cbioportal.org/
Data packs are cached using BiocFileCache
to avoid re-downloading
cBioPortalData
lets users query the cbioportal.org API and retrieve slices
of data according to gene, molecular profile identifiers, etc.
Queries through cBioPortalData
use a caching mechanism to avoid repeat
downloads of data and improve load times
Both functions return a MultiAssayExperiment
as the primary data
representation
Only a number of study datasets are currently possible to load. Issues
can arise with mismatched or munged identifiers
The cBioPortal API representation is handled by the AnVIL
package
which makes use of rapiclient
to provide an automatic R interface to the API
Bug fixes and minor improvements
Data pack downloads use an alternative method for download when a download
fails
You can’t perform that action at this time.
