- Essentials
- Represent consistently biological information across different projects
- Ease discovery, test and integration of graphical components
- Standardize and facilitate components development
BioJS builds a infrastructure, guidelines and tools to avoid the reinvention of the wheel in life sciences (= "Docker for Bio web components"). Our community builds modules than can be reused by anyone and makes them available for download via a centralised registry.
For BioJS 2.0 every component is a separate github repository. To search for a package, visit our registry. This repo is kept as intro guide and discussion repo. Feel free to open an issue (questions, suggestions, proposal or bug reports here) or to submit a component wish.
However you are still invited to show your interest in this project by starring this repo.
- Packages
A tiny building block like a FASTA parser or a visualization piece. If it obeys the rule "do one thing and do it well" , then it is (most likely) a package. The BioJS packages are published on the JavaScript package manager npm.
Visit the biojs.net registry to search for components.
(Find it on github: Frontend repo, backend repo).
- Developing packages
Detailed installation instructions.
Even tough you can easily install node on Windows, a Unix-like OS is generally a more productive development enviroment.
↝ read our guide
To bootstrap a new project you can use the BioJS slush generator.
npm install -g slush slush-biojs
mkdir biojsAWesome && cd biojsAwesome
slush biojs
↝ read our sniper.
- Events (Convention for the Observer pattern)
- CSS dependencies
- JS dependencies (=npm packages)
- Reusable modules
- example snippets
Especially the snippets should give one a quick start on how to use a component.
You are now ready to enjoy the benefits of npm. For common use cases (requests, drag and drop, promises) you will always find plenty of npm modules.
Our gold standards are conventions we highly encourage you to follow (especially for JS beginners). They will help you to create a great package!
Just publish it on npm.
We'd recommend opening an issue in their repository directly.
- Support
Whether you want to write your own component and just submit it onto our BioJS registry or help to increase our ecosystem - we value your contribution(s)!
Here are some general ideas:
- Browse our issue list
- Ask on gitter
↝ There are many ways to contact us
For technical queries (questions, suggestions, proposal or bug reports) Github issues are preferred.
↝ We have a community-based wiki. Some topics include:
We maintain a learning platform edu.biojs.net.
