add 2 files to watch

[Dima]

Hi!

I upgarded to 3,60 and love the new upgraded version. especially beign able to save the prefered layout style...

I am using FileWatcher app to update the exisitng netowrk i there maybe a new improved way to AUTOMATICALLY UPDADE the exisiting network - when the original csv files which contain node and edge data (updated by excel) change and are saved?

Thanks a lot for your work!

in other can a network be reread simply from the oroginal files - auotmatically - without importing tables for edges and nodes again?

[Alexander Pico]

Yes. CYS files from 3.2.1 can be opened directly by 3.6 and any future 3.x version of Cytoscape. That’s a built in the definition of the 3.x series of releases.

[Dima]

or do you mean the networks are automatill updated with the data from the table files when they are reopened?

[Dima]

A really fantastic option woudl be to have a keyboard shortcut which reloads tabel date from previosuly used excel tables -or is this possible already?

[Alexander Pico]

You have to reimport the file.

thanks - do you plan to implement auto import in the future? or auto-update?

[Alex Pico]

The approach to automate importing is to use Commands, R or Python scripts, like you are exploring in your other forum posts.

[Dima]

thank you but I am a non-programmer,,,

 - Alex

[Dima]

btw - I can use cytoscape commands to just import a nodes table or edges table?

 - Alex

[Alex Pico]

Yes. Again, it will take a moment to explore the available Commands, but all of these answers are accessible to you (and any non-programmer) via the command line tool and Swagger UI described in the manual:

http://manual.cytoscape.org/en/stable/Programmatic_Access_to_Cytoscape_Features_Scripting.html

It might be daunting at first, but give it some time. There is no other way to write your first script :)

do you plan to add soem tutorials on scripting? like importing edge tabel from csv file - do you have a ascrip file liek this to see?

[Dima]

for now I had to record a dozne of mouse movements to import an edge table into a network - can you pls show me the exampel fo a script which does this? I can modify it to me needs,,,

[Alex Pico]

For this, I’d recommend using R. We have lots of tutorials here:

https://github.com/cytoscape/cytoscape-automation/tree/master/for-scripters/R

And here:

https://bioconductor.org/packages/release/bioc/html/RCy3.html 

I’d start here:

https://bioconductor.org/packages/release/bioc/vignettes/RCy3/inst/doc/Overview-of-RCy3.html
