Optimize Toolset

I’ve always been into building performant and accessible sites, but lately I’ve been taking it extremely seriously. So much so that I’ve been building a tool to help me optimize and monitor the sites that I build to make sure that I’m making an attempt to offer the best experience to those who visit them. If you’re into performant, accessible and SEO friendly sites, you might like it too! You can check it out at Optimize Toolset.

About

Hi, 👋, I’m Ryan Hefner  and I built this site for me, and you! The goal of this site was to provide an easy way for me to check the stats on my npm packages, both for prioritizing issues and updates, and to give me a little kick in the pants to keep up on stuff.

As I was building it, I realized that I was actually using the tool to build the tool, and figured I might as well put this out there and hopefully others will find it to be a fast and useful way to search and browse npm packages as I have.

If you’re interested in other things I’m working on, follow me on Twitter or check out the open source projects I’ve been publishing on GitHub.

I am also working on a Twitter bot for this site to tweet the most popular, newest, random packages from npm. Please follow that account now and it will start sending out packages soon–ish.

Open Software & Tools

This site wouldn’t be possible without the immense generosity and tireless efforts from the people who make contributions to the world and share their work via open source initiatives. Thank you 🙏

Build Status

OncoprintJS

This is the library that generates the Oncoprint visualization in cBioPortal. Essentially, it populates a canvas of a grid of m tracks of n types, where each element can either be a discrete value represented by a colored glyph on a grey background or a continuous value within a color range. Oncoprint can have many conceivable uses, but in cBioPortal, it is primarily used to visualize tracks of m genes and n patient samples, where the colored glyphs represent genomic alterations. It is also used to display a heatmap of gene and/or protein expression values for those m genes and n patient samples.

Using the Node Module

Oncoprint is on NPM. To install:

npm install --save oncoprintjs

In order to use it, just require it into your script.

const Oncoprint = require('oncoprintjs');

It can also be imported

import Oncoprint from "oncoprintjs";

A full documentation of the API is still pending, but the typescript declarations in dist/js/oncoprint.d.ts may be of use.

Development

Getting Started

First, clone the repo:

git clone https://github.com/cBioPortal/oncoprintjs.git

Install the necessary NPM packages defined in package.json by running:

npm install

Next, build

npm run build

Which will write dist/oncoprint.bundle.js, which is a CommonJS module and can be included using require, or import.

The directory rules/ contains glyph styling specifications that are specific to the genomic alterations use case of Oncoprint, which you may want to use.

Using a local version of oncoprintjs during development (e.g. in cBioPortal)

yalc (https://github.com/wclr/yalc) is extremely useful for this.

Whenever you have made a change to oncoprintjs you want to bring into another package: (1) First navigate to the oncoprint directory. Then build:

npm run build

(2) Then "publish" the package locally using yalc

yalc publish

(3) Now go to the directory of your project (e.g. cbioportal-frontend), and add the local package

yalc add oncoprintjs

(4) Install packages again, using npm or yarn. Now, you will be using your local version of oncoprintjs.

(5) When you no longer want to be using the local version of oncoprintjs, simply run

yalc remove oncoprintjs

And run npm or yarn again.

Changes to Oncoprint

If you make changes to the Oncoprint code base and want to load it into the examples, do not modify oncoprint.bundle.js, since all of your code will get overwritten when compiled using npm run build. Instead, modify the files in src/ and then re-run npm run build.

Schematic diagrams

oncoprintjs is written loosely with a Model-View-Controller framework, although some Views definitely have their own state.
