GenomeSpy is a visualization toolkit for genomic (and other) data. It has a Vega-Lite inspired visualization grammar and high-performance, WebGL-powered graphics rendering.
The software is still work in progress. Documentation and examples for the current version can be found at https://genomespy.app/
GenomeSpy is split into several packages, two of which are the most important:
The core library provides the visualization grammar and a WebGL-powered rendering engine.
The app builds upon the core, extending the visualization grammar with support for faceting multiple (up to thousands of) patient samples. It provides a user interface for interactive analysis of the samples, which can be filtered, sorted, and grouped flexibly. A session handling with provenance, url hashes, and bookmarks is included.
git clone [email protected]:genome-spy/genome-spy.gitcd genome-spynpm install(use npm7!)npm start(starts the App)
The packages/core/examples directory contains some random view specification that can be accessed through urls like http://localhost:8080/?spec=examples/first.json.
The packages/core/private/ directory is in .gitignore and served by the development server: http://localhost:8080/?spec=private/foo.json. Use it for experiments that should not go into version control.
If you want to use or develop the core library, launch a single-page app using: npm -w @genome-spy/core run dev
