Download single cell datasets from different portals #94

Closed yiqisu closed 4 months ago

yiqisu commented 1 year ago

To satisfy the increasing need for scRNA-seq data and other omics data such as scATAC-seq, we'd like to add new features to BEELINE to enable the automatic downloading of datasets from data portals including sfaira, Single Cell Portal (SCP), Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO), etc.

The SCP API doesn't directly provide the filtering capabilities for automatic downloads such as by omics and/or tissue type. We will integrate to BEELINE in the future.
