Install and manage Seurat datasets

Description

Single cell RNA sequencing datasets can be large, consisting of matrices that contain expression data for several thousand features across several thousand cells. This package is designed to easily install, manage, and learn about various single-cell datasets, provided Seurat objects and distributed as independent packages.

Package options

SeuratData uses the following options to control behaviour, users can configure these with options:

• 'SeuratData.repo.use': Set the location where the SeuratData datasets are stored. Users generally should not modify.

• 'SeuratData.manifest.cache': Cache the data manifest whenever we talk to the data repository; note, setting to FALSE will simply prevent SeuratData from caching the manifest, not from reading a previously cached manifest

• 'SeuratData.roaming': For Windows users, use a roaming profile directory for domain users. See https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Roaming_user_profile for a brief overview and Microsoft's documentation for greater detail
