These builds are the from the head of master and are not guaranteed to be stable. Use at your own risk.

Requirements

You should use Python 3.5 or later. A number of Python libraries need to be installed, but these can be automatically installed in a Python virtual environment, which is exactly what the makefile does under Linux and OSX or what the PowerShell script does for Windows.

Ubuntu

sudo apt-get install -y python3-dev
sudo apt-get install -y python3-venv

Windows 10

You'll need to install Python 3. We recommend using Anaconda for this.

Optional for Developers

If you want to run ./atomizer/SBMLparser/sbmlTranslator.py directly, you can install all the Python requirements at the system level by doing:

cd SBMLparser
sudo pip3 install -r requirements.txt

Alternatively, you can do this at the user level:

cd SBMLparser
pip3 install --user -r requirements.txt

Installation

OSX and Linux

From the top-level directory, type the following:

make; make install

This will create an sbmlTranslator binary in ./atomizer/bin. This is made using PyInstaller.

Installation for Windows

Right click on ./atomizer/build_sbmlTranslator_win.ps1 and select Run with PowerShell.

Execution

./sbmlTranslator -i /path/to/sbml/file [-a] [-o output.bngl]

Optional arguments

  • [-a] activates the atomizer. Otherwise only a flat translation will be provided (no molecular structure)
  • [-p] activates pathway commons querying. An internet connection is required
  • [-b <path/to/bionetgen>] Enables post atomization analysis.
  • See [-h] for a full list of arguments

Directory Structure:

  • SBMLparser: Directory containing the main project.
    • sbmlTranslator.py: Entry level file

    • atomizer: Contains the main implicit assumption extraction code

      • analyzeSBML.py: lexical analysis engine
      • detectOntology.py: helper file for the lexical analysis engine (levenshtein distance, convention discovery, etc.)
      • analyzeRDF.py: extracts annotation information and gets it into the atomizer data model
      • resolveSCT.py: Creates the species composition table using lexical analysis, annotation information and the stoichiometry matrix
      • moleculeCreation.py: Creates the structured molecules for use in graph-creation
    • utils: contains several utility scripts used during the atomization process

      • consoleCommands.py: Interfaces with the BioNetGen console
      • pathwaysCommons.py: Queries BioGrid and pathways commons given an RDF annotation entry
  • stats: Extracts statistics of a set of atomized BioModels files
