Example:

HMDB01877

results in (look at chebi)

CHEBI:39867 ChEBI 3121 PubChem-compound 115217 ChEBI HMDB0001877 HMDB NIJJYAXOARWZEE-UHFFFAOYSA-N InChIKey 39867 ChEBI CHEBI:115217 ChEBI Q240642 Wikidata LMFA01020291 LIPID MAPS 3009 Chemspider DTXSID6023733 EPA CompTox C07185 KEGG Compound HMDB01877 HMDB 99-66-1 CAS

Other Id's that can serve as example:

This will happen for other databases as well.... Could we include a checkmark button, where people can select if they want one mapping, or all mappings? And then add the "all mappings" as an array (or as separate rows?!). And, how is the "one mapping" selected; just the first one that is encountered in the bridgedb webservice? How stable is that selection procedure?

Part of this discussion is now on #11 (the part relating equivalent Id's. Eg.: chebi:12345 = 12345)

DeniseSl22 commented 5 years ago

No, the unification of results is a different discussion in my opinion. This issue is concerning the one vs many mappings, and how to display those results on the website.

nunogit commented 5 years ago

@DeniseSl22 exactly, that's why I mentioned that part of this issue is now in #11. Initially I grouped both problems here.
