The goal of FileSetExperiment is to wrap sesame fileSet objects into a SummarizedExperiment-like object, with the corresponding expected features.

Installation instructions

Get the latest stable R release from CRAN. Then install FileSetExperiment from Bioconductor using the following code:

if (!requireNamespace("BiocManager", quietly = TRUE)) {
    install.packages("BiocManager")
}

BiocManager::install("FileSetExperiment")

And the development version from GitHub with:

BiocManager::install("trichelab/FileSetExperiment")

Example

This is a basic example which shows you how to solve a common problem:

library("FileSetExperiment")
## basic example code

What is special about using README.Rmd instead of just README.md? You can include R chunks like so:

summary(cars)
#>      speed           dist       
#>  Min.   : 4.0   Min.   :  2.00  
#>  1st Qu.:12.0   1st Qu.: 26.00  
#>  Median :15.0   Median : 36.00  
#>  Mean   :15.4   Mean   : 42.98  
#>  3rd Qu.:19.0   3rd Qu.: 56.00  
#>  Max.   :25.0   Max.   :120.00

You’ll still need to render README.Rmd regularly, to keep README.md up-to-date.

You can also embed plots, for example:

plot of chunk pressure

In that case, don’t forget to commit and push the resulting figure files, so they display on GitHub!
