genonets 1.1.1

New in version 1.1.0

The public interface in genonets.genonets_interface.Genonets has been changed, i.e., several method signatures used in the previous versions are no longer valid. Please see the API documentation here.

New in version 1.0.7

• An optional command line argument, ‘-v’ or ‘–verbose’ has been introduced. This enables the verbose mode. When used with python ‘-u’ flag, detailed progress information is printed to the standard output.

• A new analysis type ‘PATHS_RATIOS’ has been added. It enables the computation of ratio of ‘accessible mutational paths’ to ‘all shortest mutational paths’ for a given distance from summit.

• An optional command line argument, ‘-rc’ or ‘–use_reverse_complements’ has been introduced. This option can only be used with alphabet type ‘DNA’. If this option is given, in addition to the genotypes, reverse complements of the genotypes are also considered during genotype network creation, as well as during ‘Evolvability’, ‘Accessibility’, ‘Neighbor abundance’, and ‘Diversity index’ analysis types.

Linux (tested on Ubuntu 14.04 LTS and Ubuntu 16.04 LTS)

Using pip,

pip install genonets

In case you get a ‘permission’ related error, try the following:

sudo pip install genonets

You can also install Genonets directly from the source package.

python setup.py install

Again, in case you run into permission related errors,

sudo python setup.py install

When trying to install genonets on a machine with Ubuntu 14.04 LTS that does not already have the required version of python-igraph installed, pip sometimes fails to install the C core of igraph. If that happens, follow these steps:

1. sudo apt-get install build-essential

2. sudo apt-get python-dev

3. sudo apt-get install libxml2-dev

4. sudo apt-get install libz-dev

5. sudo pip uninstall genonets

6. Finally, sudo pip install genonets

Mac OS X El Capitan

We highly recommend using virtualenv for installation on Mac OS X El Capitan.

In case you do not already have virtualenv installed on your system, use the following command to install virtualenv:

pip install virtualenv

In the directory of your choice, create a virtual environment. In the following example, we will create a virtual environment called venv_genonets:

virtualenv venv_genonnets

Now, activate venv_genonets as follows:

source venv_genonets/bin/activate

You are now ready to install Genonets. Use the following command:

pip install genonets

Note: Every time you need to use genonets, you will have to activate the corresponding virtual environment.

Windows

Instructions for Windows are basically the same, except in certain cases installation of dependencies fails. If that happens, follow these steps:

1. Download the ‘whl’ files for numpy and python-igraph from http://www.lfd.uci.edu/~gohlke/pythonlibs/. E.g.,

1. numpy-1.10.2+mkl-cp27-none-win32.whl

2. python_igraph-0.7.1.post6-cp27-none-win32.whl

3. pip install python_igraph-0.7.1.post6-cp27-none-win32.whl

4. pip install numpy-1.10.2+mkl-cp27-none-win32.whl

5. And finally, pip install genonets
