Hi All,
How's things going?
Just thought i'd let you all know about a pleasant by-product of some
of my recent work - I've just packaged up and released a Biomart
library/api for Ruby. I was writing a lot of code that queried
various marts via the web services and ended up copying around lots of
boiler plate code, so it made sense to modularize it. :) It's quite
basic for the moment and only does single dataset queries, but it will
be quite easy to build upon the base from here.
The source is available from github (http://github.com/dazoakley/
biomart), and the docs are on rdoc.info (http://rdoc.info/projects/dazoakley/biomart
).
Fingers crossed this might be helpful to others! :)
Thanks,
Daz
