Project description

License information Current library version Supported Python versions Documentation status Travis CI status Code coverage information

The mwtab package is a Python library that facilitates reading and writing files in mwTab format used by the Metabolomics Workbench for archival of Mass Spectrometry (MS) and Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) experimental data.

The mwtab package provides facilities to convert mwTab formatted files into their equivalent JSONized (JavaScript Object Notation, an open-standard format that uses human-readable text to transmit data objects consisting of attribute-value pairs) representation and vice versa.

The mwtab package can be used in several ways:

  • As a library for accessing and manipulating data stored in mwTab format files.

  • As a command-line tool to convert between mwTab format and its equivalent JSON representation.

Installation

The mwtab package runs under Python 2.7 and Python 3.4+, use pip to install. Starting with Python 3.4, pip is included by default.

Quickstart

>>> import mwtab
>>>
>>> # Here we use ANALYSIS_ID of file to fetch data from URL
>>> for mwfile in mwtab.read_files("1", "2"):
...      print("STUDY_ID:", mwfile.study_id)
...      print("ANALYSIS_ID:", mwfile.analysis_id)
...      print("SOURCE:", mwfile.source)
...      print("Blocks:", list(mwfile.keys()))
