The cytofBrowserLite is a lite version of cytofBrowser with reduced number of dependences. This version will be maintained and upgraded..
The package focuses on analysis of CyTOF proteomic data by the easiest
and fastest way. CytofBrowser allows you to starts from FCS files that
you get from the CyTOF machine, preprocessing and transforms the data
then getting the specific cell populations by markers as well as by
clustering cells, estimate the abundance of cell populations, find the
correlations and patterns by high-throughput hypothesis testing
algorithm. CytofBrowser supplies the tool to visualize explore and
interact with data on each step of the pipeline.
CytofBrowser has a user-friendly graphical interface. It developed as R Shiny app GUI.
Presently you can install the develop version of this program:
if (!requireNamespace("BiocManager", quietly = TRUE))
install.packages("BiocManager")
if (!requireNamespace("devtools", quietly = TRUE))
install.packages("devtools")
devtools::install_github("AlexanderKononov/cytofBrowserLite")It assumed that this program will be used with GUI as Shiny App.
cytofBrowser::cytofBrowserGUI()If you can’t install the app correctly: Check the dependencies of packages. List of demanded packages is waited in file DESCRIPTION. Also the same list of the packages mentioned in additional file Library_louncher.R This files can be used as a script to upload all dependencies in the running R session manually.
If you faced with a problem of updating any package from dependencies: Check the R version and Rstudio version (if you use it). After R 4.0 update some packages can not update correctly by the previous R version and can show “non-zero checksum” error. Some basic packages can have problem with updating within Rstudio and show the error “can’t remove the previous version of package”. The most straightforward way to fix this problem is to delete the target package manually from the directory with R package libraries (for windows usually Documents/R/win-library) and there instal it again.
If no one button does not react or collapses the app: One previous version of shinyFiles for windows is not stable. You can try to manually update this package.
install.packages("shinyFiles")or you can try to use the previous version of the package.
lin <- "https://cran.r-project.org/src/contrib/Archive/shinyFiles/shinyFiles_0.7.5.tar.gz"
install.packages(lin, repos=NULL, type="source")Since I have not devoted time to create detail documentation yet, I note the link to the video which I sent to my colleague and mentor to get the feedback. It can look redundantly detail or in an odd format. But there are enough explanations of work and examples of a graphical interface using. P.S. Don’t judge my video skills strictly=)
