ChiSE

ChiSE is a library with an API based on SBGNViz.js, which in turn is based on Cytoscape.js, to visualize and edit the pathway models represented by process description (PD) and activity flow (AF) languages of SBGN or in simple interaction format (SIF).

It accepts the pathway models represented in enriched SBGN-ML format, and can save edited pathways back to the same format, including layout, style, and annotation information, as well as static image formats (PNG, JPEG, and SVG). It can also import from and export to various formats from SIF to SBML to CellDesigner.

Usage instructions

Download the library (we recommend the use of LTS version 10.x.x of node.js):

via npm: npm install chise or
via direct download in the repository (probably from a tag).

require() the library as appropriate for your project:

CommonJS:

var sbgnviz = require('sbgnviz');
var cytoscape = require('cytoscape-for-sbgnviz');
var jQuery = require('jQuery');
var filesaver = require('file-saver');
var sbgnviz = require('sbgnviz');
var tippy = require('tippy.js');
 
var options = {
};
 
var libs = {
    cytoscape: cytoscape,
    jQuery: jQuery,
    filesaver: filesaver,
    sbgnviz: sbgnviz,
    tippy = tippy
};
 
// Register chise with libs
chise.register(libs);
 
// Create a new chise.js instance
var chiseInstance = chise(options);

In plain JS you do not need to require the libraries you just need to register chise with the options.
