Add GWAS track using elm - now purescript #6

Open pjotrp opened 7 years ago

pjotrp commented 7 years ago

UK10K has a track in BD http://www.uk10k.org/dalliance.html and these rolled their own http://locuszoom.sph.umich.edu/locuszoomjs.php. I think we would like to have it look like the latter. We do not have a GWAS viewer in GN2 right now - but you can take the output of LMM mapping to achieve the effect.

We'll try to use elm to get a better language for programming in BD.

Change that to purescript

@chfi great you are working on the GWAS track. Can you take a look at above URLs again and tell me what you think?

chfi commented 7 years ago

We could use either style, I don't think either would be more or less difficult to implement (though the LocusZoom one looks better IMO). Purescript renderers don't work with the multi-track renderer in BD yet, so it'd take some extra work to support having a QTL plot in the same track, but I have some ideas on how to go about doing that.
