Phinch is an open-source framework for visualizing biological data, funded by a grant from the Alfred P. Sloan foundation. This project represents an interdisciplinary collaboration between Pitch Interactive, a data visualization studio in Oakland, CA, and biological researchers at UC Riverside.
I attempted to import a .biom table encoded using the HDF5 format, see #58, and Phinch did nothing. If the formatting of the .biom file is incorrect, there should be an error mentioning that the file was uploaded but could not be read instead of failing silently.
Mentioning the source of the error (missing metadata, missing taxonomy, using HDF5, etc) would be even better.
Thanks!
Edit: I guess support for HDF5 files would be nice, although I should probably open another issue.
