CHANGES IN VERSION 0.1.0
New features
cBioDataPackallows users to download packaged data objects from
download.cbioportal.org/- Data packs are cached using
BiocFileCacheto avoid re-downloading cBioPortalDatalets users query the cbioportal.org API and retrieve slices
of data according to gene, molecular profile identifiers, etc.- Queries through
cBioPortalDatause a caching mechanism to avoid repeat
downloads of data and improve load times - Both functions return a
MultiAssayExperimentas the primary data
representation - Only a number of study datasets are currently possible to load. Issues
can arise with mismatched or munged identifiers - The cBioPortal API representation is handled by the
AnVILpackage
which makes use ofrapiclientto provide an automatic R interface to the API
