get_metadata {slinky} | R Documentation |
The accessor function retrieves metadata from Slinky object.
get_metadata(x) ## S4 method for signature 'Slinky' get_metadata(x)
x |
a Slinky object |
As it turns out 'metadata' was a poor choice for the accessor function because it can be masked if the user loads the 'SummarizedExperiment' package after slinky. So this provides an alternative. Eventually 'slinky::metadata' should be deprecated.
The accessor function returns a data.frame
containing the metadata.
# for build/demo only. You MUST use your own key when using the slinky # package. user_key <- httr::content(httr::GET('https://api.clue.io/temp_api_key'), as='parsed')$user_key sl <- Slinky(user_key, system.file('extdata', 'demo.gctx', package='slinky'), system.file('extdata', 'demo_inst_info.txt', package = 'slinky')) md <- get_metadata(sl[, 1:10])
