Examples

library(sceptredata)
directories_to_load <- paste0(
 system.file("extdata", package = "sceptredata"),
 "/highmoi_example/gem_group_", c(1, 2)
)
directory_to_write <- tempdir()
out_list <- create_odm_from_cellranger(
  directories_to_load = directories_to_load,
  directory_to_write = directory_to_write,
)
gene_odm <- out_list$gene
gene_odm

# delete the gene_odm object
rm(gene_odm)

# reinitialize the gene_odm object
gene_odm <- initialize_odm_from_backing_file(
  paste0(tempdir(), "/gene.odm")
)
