Client Libraries

The following are the collected client libraries for the entire PIC-SURE project.

• R Client Library

• Python Client Library

PIC-SURE User Interface

The PIC-SURE User Interface acts as a visual aid for running normal queries of resources through PIC-SURE.

PIC-SURE User Interface Repositories:

• PIC-SURE HPDS UI: The main High Performance Data Store (HPDS) UI repository.

Additional PIC-SURE User Interface Links:

• PIC-SURE UI Flow: Links to a google drawing of the PIC-SURE UI flow.

PIC-SURE Auth Micro-App (PSAMA)

The PSAMA component of the PIC-SURE ecosystem authorizes and authenticates all actions taken within PIC-SURE.

High Performance Data Store (HPDS)

HPDS is a datastore designed to work with the PIC-SURE meta-API. It grants researchers fast, dependable access to static datasets and the ability to produce statistics-ready dataframes filtered on any variable they choose at any time.

HPDS Repositories:

• PIC-SURE HPDS: The main HPDS repository.

• PIC-SURE HPDS Python Client: Python client library to run queries against a PIC-SURE HPDS resource.

• PIC-SURE HPDS R Client: R client library to run queries against a PIC-SURE HPDS resource.

• PIC-SURE HPDS UI: The main HPDS UI repository.

• HPDS Annotation: This repository describes steps to prepare and annotate VCF files for loading into HPDS.
