Add operations to cover table import from file #66

Open dotasek opened 6 years ago

dotasek commented 6 years ago

PUT /v1/networks/{networkId}/tables/{tableType} supports CyREST specific data, but doesn't allow loading from a file.

In particular, these formats should be supported:

[ ] CSV/TSV/TXT
[ ] Expression Matrix
[ ] Excel
[ ] Attrs

This is related to https://github.com/cytoscape/cyREST/issues/64 in that we're trying to do a lot of work with a file, stream, or url, AND support the existing JSON formats from the RESTful endpoints.

Getting this to make sense might be a struggle.

This, along with #64, could be taken care of by using some of the code used in the drag and drop functionality.
