In multiMiR: Integration of multiple microRNA-target databases with their disease and drug associations

Description

Functions for collecting and displaying information about the web server and database of the multiMiR package.

Usage

multimir_dbInfo(url = NULL)

multimir_dbInfoVersions(url = NULL)

multimir_dbSchema(schema.file = NULL)

multimir_dbTables(url = NULL)

multimir_dbCount(url = NULL)

Arguments

url	Deprecated. Use global option multimir.url instead.
schema.file	Deprecated. Option exists as multimir.schema, but it should not need to be set directly.

Details

multimir.url is a global option containing the URL of the multiMiR web server. Set using options("multimir.url" = ...)

multimir_dbCount returns counts of records in the tables in the multiMiR database. Each table contains data from an external miRNA/target database.

multimir_dbInfo returns other information about the multiMiR database. This includes information of external miRNA/target databases in multiMiR.

multimir_dbInfoVersions returns other information about the multiMiR database versions available. This provides a list of available options if switching to previous version is desired.

multimir_dbSchema prints the schema definition of the multiMiR database.

multimir_dbTables returns the vector of tables in the multiMiR database and saves it to the global option multimir.tables.list. This function is automatically run when get_multimir is called if the multimir.tables.list is NULL.

Value

multimir_dbCount: a data frame with the count of records in each of the tables in the multiMiR database.

multimir_dbInfo: a data frame with information about the multiMiR database.

multimir_dbInfoVersions: a data frame with information about the multiMiR database versions.

multimir_dbSchema: none (invisible NULL).

multimir_dbTables: a data frame with table names in the multiMiR database.

Examples

  this_url <- getOption("multimir.url")
  this_url
  options(multimir.url = this_url)
  
  db_ver <- multimir_dbInfoVersions()
  
  db_count <- multimir_dbCount()

  db_info <- multimir_dbInfo()

  multimir_dbSchema()

  db_tables <- multimir_dbTables()
