Loading ontologies #75

Closed dotasek closed 6 years ago

dotasek commented 6 years ago

There isn't a means by which to import ontologies via CyREST.

The steps to achieve this via the GUI are outlined here: http://manual.cytoscape.org/en/stable/Ontology_and_Annotation_Import.html

However, all the relevant TaskFactories are in org.cytoscape.tableimport.internal, and are not available, and what could have been a relevant CyAction is commented out in abcaf57d095a1be7316681628d46973d6f63e626, possibly for very good reasons.

Making ontology loading part of the Cytoscape API needs to happen before this is addressed.

As pointed out by @bdemchak, the support for this in Cytoscape is now gone completely, so shouldn't be an issue at all.
