Methods

Public methods


Method new()

Create an abstract wrapper around a data object.

Usage
AbstractWrapper$new(out_dir = NA, use_cache = FALSE)
Arguments
out_dir

The directory for processed output files.

use_cache

If converted output files already exist, should they be used? By default, FALSE.

Returns

A new AbstractWrapper object.


Method convert_and_save()

Fill in the file_def_creators array. Each function added to this list should take in a base URL and generate a Vitessce file definition. If this wrapper is wrapping local data, then create routes and fill in the routes array. This method is void, should not return anything.
