1 BiocHubsShiny

The BiocHubsShiny package allows users to visually explore the AnnotationHub and ExperimentHub resources via shiny. It provides a tabular display of the available resources with the ability to filter and search through the column fields.

2 Installation

if (!requireNamespace("BiocManager", quietly = TRUE))
    install.packages("BiocManager")

BiocManager::install("BiocHubsShiny")

3 Loading the package

library(BiocHubsShiny)

4 Display of resources

Resources are displayed interactively using the eponymous function:

BiocHubsShiny()

5 Filtering

You can filter by any of the columns in the table. For example, you can search for ‘Mus musculus’ to get resources only for that species:

6 Selection

Click on the rows to select the resources. They will show up as highlighted rows.

7 Import

Once the selection is highlighted, the code at the bottom of the app will be updated to show the commands for entering (reproducibly) into the R session.
