Develop a Web Service for Rendering SBGN Diagrams #144

Closed cannin closed 3 years ago

cannin commented 4 years ago

Background

The Systems Biology Graphical Notation (SBGN) is a widely used notation for visualizing biological networks (https://dx.doi.org/10.1038/nbt.1558). The reach of SBGN could be increased by making it easier if SBGN diagrams can be quickly be rendered through a web service.

Goal

The goal to develop a web service that can generate SBGN diagrams given SBGNML (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/22581176) content. The web service would be a Javascript-based service using https://github.com/iVis-at-Bilkent/sbgnviz.js for rendering. This basic web service would be extended to support the rendering of user-provided colors for SBGN glyphs and the multiple output graphical formats from sbgnviz.js.

Difficulty Level 1

Difficulty level 1 because the goal is to use existing components and only Javascript. Difficulties could arise if the rendering requires components not typically a part of web services that simply produce text outputs.

hello! I'm a little bit familiar with JavaScript, have done one project using it for data processing on a web page. What should I learn more about JavaScript to be able to do rendering?

Thanks!
