Hi, An early, alpha-quality version of the batch data import plugin is now available at
http://lev.thep.lu.se/trac/baseplugins/wiki/BatchDataImporter This version has been through the first round of bug fixes but has then not been tested by anyone other than myself locally, so please feel free to test it. Any feedback on bugs would be greatly appreciated -- I'll try and fix them as quickly as poss but help from others in maintaining/extending this plugin would also be appreciated. The plugin takes a zip file with multiple data files in the same format, unzips this, and then creates a new RawBioAssay object for each data file. It is invoked from the Import tab in the Experiment (detail) view and the raw bioassays created are then appended to this experiment. Instructions for use and installation as well as links to the source code and the plugin jar are provided on the plugin home page (see above). It does currently not create any other objects (Annotations etc) so clearly there is lots of scope for extensions. My time on BASE things is rather limited though, and if there is anyone out there who wants to help extend this, please get in touch with myself and/or Jari. The code is in the BASE plugins SVN repo so the potential for easy collaboration is there anyway.
