Open Pedigree Save Function JSON Structure #69

Open JBarnett404 opened 1 year ago

JBarnett404 commented 1 year ago

Hi - Is there any documentation describing the Open Pedigree JSON data structure or how Open Pedigree converts from the JSON data structure to a GA4GH pedigree standard? We know that Open Pedigree supports exporting to GA4GH but we are interested in using the file generated by the save function which produces a JSON file describing a data structure that we are unfamiliar with (in particular focusing on the string that encodes family relationships). Any information on this structure or string would be helpful.

Conversion to and from GA4GH is done in GA4GHFHIRConverter.js. I am not aware of documentation on the internal json format, you may need to just trace through the code.
