epiviz / epiviz Goto Github PK

When UI is on one server, and data on another, because index.php is on the UI side, the session user is not preserved!

Is it possible to load the bam file? I am trying to create publication quality figure for a manuscript. I have assembly data and want to show a specific locus with the assembled transcript and the reads in that locus. The image from IGV and UCSC genome browser isn't looks good. I just came across this tool and liked the presentation.

The options "slide left", "slide right", "zoom in" and "zoom out" don't work.
I tested on Chrome 38, and Safari 7 on Mac OS X Mavericks 10.9.5. All the same result.

Currently, anyone with a link to a workspace can view that workspace. It would be great to have a way of sharing some workspaces with only a set of users, and also allow multiple users to have write permissions for some workspaces.

Currently, EpiViz only handles continuous sequences of data (consecutive global indices). It would be extremely useful, however, if some filtering were done on the data provider side, and only filtered data were sent up to the UI.

For example if you enter "1,000-500" in the search box, and then use "slide right", the search box generates "801 - -194". Inverse coordinates should not be enable, and maybe an error message could be displayed.

Create a chart type that contains a text box where users can type R commands that are send through the WebSocket protocol to the R connection. (Same applies with Python connections, etc.)

EpiViz currently supports log in with either Facebook or Twitter. Google is a better variant and more commonly used in the research community.

EpiViz implements a simple unit testing framework, used for running basic performance tests. This framework can be used to test various EpiViz features as well.

Currently, the data server only stores minimal information about users, and nothing about their actions. It would be useful to track user actions in order to discover usage patterns and catch bugs.

Add functionality for clearing the current workspace or creating a new empty one.

Currently, objects in the visualizations can be selected only one at a time. Allow for Ctrl+Click, Shift+Click, and selection by mouse drag-drop.

The code is documented such that it follows the guidelines of the Google Closure compiler. Use this compiler to minify and optimize it further.

Currently, the UI code assumes that all web requests are fulfilled correctly, not allowing for request timeouts or GET/POST server errors. Add exception handling functionality for this issue.

Add a dialog for workspace management, instead of the text box and buttons.

In epiviz.ui.charts.Track.prototype._drawTitle, use the following code to detect where to draw each of the chart entries:

/**
 * @private
 */
epiviz.ui.charts.Track.prototype._drawTitle = function() {
  var textLength = 0;
  var title = '';

  var measurements = this.measurements().toArray();

  var self = this;
  this._svg.selectAll('.chart-title').remove();
  var titleEntries = this._svg
    .selectAll('.chart-title')
    .data(measurements)
    .enter()
    .append('text')
    .attr('class', 'chart-title')
    .attr('font-weight', 'bold')
    .attr('fill', function(m, i) { return self.colors().get(i); })
    .attr('y', self.margins().top() - 5)
    .text(function(m, i) { return m.name(); });

  var textLength = 0;
  var titleEntriesStartPosition = [];

  $('#' + this.id() + ' .chart-title')
    .each(function(i) {
      titleEntriesStartPosition.push(textLength);
      textLength += this.getBBox().width + 3;
    });

  titleEntries.attr('x', function(m, i) {
    return self.margins().left() + titleEntriesStartPosition[i];
  });
};

Implement information pane, that displays selected data from all charts.

Currently, EpiViz events are synchronous by default. Add functionality to optionally make them asynchronous (via setTimeout()).

Currently, EpiViz assumes all data provider responses are 100% correct, not allowing for errors.

Add events to data that allow users to jump from one event location to another.

Where applicable, change code occurrences where we use epiviz.measurements.MeasurementSet or Array.<epiviz.measurements.Measurement> to epiviz.utils.Iterable.<epiviz.measurements.Measurement>.

Currently, when a user wants to plug a Gist/Github script into EpiViz, he has to retrieve the raw version of the script. However, Github renders those as:

X-Content-Type-Options: nosniff
Content-Type: text/plain

To get around to that and use them as Content-Type: text/javascript, we ask the users to use the rawgit service.

Create a feature to handle Gist/Github links internally.

Currently, every time the dialog is shown, the table with the measurements is re-generated, which makes it take a while until it loads.

Currently, charts are added one after another, and their order cannot be interchanged except by removing and adding them again in a different order. Add functionality to allow this.

While EpiViz loads, it would improve user experience if there were a splash screen

Use epiviz.ui.controls.Wizard for the Computed Measurements dialog
