molfile in the molecule structure table - do we need it? #67

Closed mnowotka closed 8 years ago

mnowotka commented 8 years ago

I've just noticed that molfile column in the Molecule Structure table is always empty. Do we need it at all? If no, we should drop the column, if yes - we should put some logic that will fetch/generate molfile if missing.

I don't collect this info, probably from chembl? Don't think we need it in IDG.

OK, let's remove it then.

OK, during writing the migration script I've found that having a molfile in the database would be very helpful, so we have to keep it and fill it immediately after new compound is created, just like with other structure identifiers, as described in https://github.com/chembl/IDG/issues/66. I'm not closing this issue yes, so I can discuss it during our Friday catch-up.
