The synapser
package provides an interface to
Synapse, a collaborative workspace for
reproducible data intensive research projects, providing support for:
The synapser
package lets you communicate with the Synapse platform to
create collaborative data analysis projects and access data using the R
programming language. Other Synapse clients exist for
Python,
Java,
and the web browser.
synapser
is available as a ready-built package for Microsoft Windows
and Mac OSX. For Linux systems, it is available to install from source.
Please also check out our System Dependencies
article for instructions on how to
install system dependencies on Linux environments.
synapser
can be installed or upgraded using the standard install.packages()
command,
adding the Sage Bionetworks R Archive Network (RAN) to the
repository list, e.g.:
install.packages("synapser", repos=c("http://ran.synapse.org", "https://cloud.r-project.org"))
Alternatively, edit your ~/.Rprofile and configure your default repositories:
options(repos=c("http://ran.synapse.org", "https://cloud.r-project.org"))
after which you may run install.packages without specifying the repositories:
install.packages("synapser")
If you have been asked to validate a release candidate, please use:
install.packages("synapser", repos=c("http://staging-ran.synapse.org"))
Under the hood, synapser
uses reticulate
and the synapsePythonClient, which
is why you are required to have an installation of Python if you don't already.
See instructions below on installing/upgrading Python below.
To get started, try logging into Synapse. If you don’t already have a Synapse account, register here:
library(synapser)
