Just an update on that: I have talked with Chris and we will simplify the BioLink API call on the API side (e.g. /slimmer/function?subset=agr_slim&subject=xxx), hence the files agr.js and I believe expression.js would be deprecated in favor of this API call. It would also ensure that a slim is always the same wherever you use it.
There will also be a /ontology/slim/{id} to retrieve metadata on a specific slim, should you need it.
👍
We are still allowing folks to pass in a slim, though, right?

I answer your Qs there
Yes, including for backward compatibility, but for consistency it will be far better to use the new route.
@sibyl229 if you want the data fetched by the API to have a different structure, or if you have any problem with it, please let us know ?
Thanks @lpalbou . I should be fine I think. I'm fetching data from WormBase database.
As the PR on BioLink / Ontobio will take some time, I have corrected the agr.js file manually and done this intermediary PR: https://github.com/geneontology/ribbon/pull/65
@selewis was right, there is an obsolete term, GO:0000988 (obsolete transcription factor activity, protein binding). I am unsure how the slimmer will work on an obsolete term so this should be fixed. Following comments on jira, I have removed it from the slim at the moment.
