sanity-plugin-pdb-input

Protein Data Bank Sanity Plugin

This is a plugin which adds an object type protein to your Sanity schema, and provides a custom input component to let you select a PDB protein model in a predefined list and adjust the starting camera position and zoom.

Quick start

• While in your project folder, run sanity install pdb-input. Read more about using plugins in Sanity here.

Usage

Use it in your schema types:

// [...]
{
  fields: [
    // [...]
    {
      name: "proteinModel",
      title: "A PDB 3d model",
      type: "protein",
    },
  ];
}

Note that the above only works if you import and use the all:part:@sanity/base/schema-type part in your schema. This is the most common way. If you are not importing the base types in this manner, you may import the schemas/pdb.js and schemas/pdbCamera.js and include them in your schema manually.

Displaying the PDB models in your web frontend

This plugin uses bio-pv node module to let the editor manipulate the camera settings. You may use the same library for displaying interactive PDB models in your web frontend. You can find it here
