synapseformation

Client for using Synapse Formation Templates. Given one of these templates, synapseformation will be able to create all the components required in a Synapse Project. Currently the implementation does one of these two scenarios.

• Only creates new entities, will fail if entity already exists.
• Create entities that don't exist and gets the entity if it already exists, but does not update an entity.

Usage

Command Line

synapseformation has a command line client that will create resources given a yaml or json template.

Usage: synapseformation create [OPTIONS]

Options:

Python

These are some of the lower level functions that exist in the package.

import synapseclient
from synapseformation import create

# Only create entities
CreateCls = create.SynapseCreation(syn)
# Only retrieve entities (don't update)
RetrieveCls = create.SynapseCreation(syn, only_get=True)
