## why geo-alchemy

GEO is like a gold mine that contains a huge many gold ore.
But processing these gold ore(GEO series) into gold(expression matrix, clinical data) is not very easy:

1. how to map microarray probe to gene?
2. how about multiple probes map to same gene?
3. hot to get clinical data?
4. ...

geo-alchemy was born to deal with it.

## installation

If you only want use as Python library:

```
pip install geo-alchemy
```

If you also want use as command line software:

```
pip install 'geo-alchemy[cmd]'
```

## use as Python library

### parse metadata from GEO

#### parse platform

```python
from geo_alchemy import PlatformParser


parser = PlatformParser.from_accession('GPL570')
platform1 = parser.parse()


# or
platform2 = PlatformParser.from_accession('GPL570').parse()


print(platform1 == platform2)

# get platform annotation data
platform = PlatformParser.from_accession('GPL570', view='full').parse()
print(platform.internal_data)
```

#### parse sample

```python
from geo_alchemy import SampleParser


parser = SampleParser.from_accession('GSM1885279')
sample1 = parser.parse()

# or
sample2 = SampleParser.from_accession('GSM1885279').parse()

print(sample1 == sample2)
```

#### parse series

```python
from geo_alchemy import SeriesParser


parser = SeriesParser.from_accession('GSE73091')
series1 = parser.parse()

# or
series2 = SeriesParser.from_accession('GSE73091').parse()


print(series1 == series2)
print(series1.platforms)
print(series1.samples)
print(series1.organisms)
```

### serialization and deserialization

For the convenience of saving, all objects in geo-alchemy can be converted to dict, 
and this dict can be directly saved to a file in json form.

Moreover, geo-alchemy also provides methods to convert these dicts into objects.


```python
from geo_alchemy import SeriesParser


series1 = SeriesParser.from_accession('GSE73091').parse()
data = series1.to_dict()
series2 = SeriesParser.parse_dict(data)


print(series1 == series2)
```

## use as command line software

### using OCM

OCM(object command mapping) is a Python framework mapping Python object to command line software.
It can capture intermediate results of command, you can enable OCM output like this:

```
geo-alchemy xxx --ocmir
```

### probe reannotation

Prerequisites:

1. NCBI BLAST must be installed.
2. BLAST Index must be generated.

for more details, refer to [this page](https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/books/NBK279690/).

```
geo-alchemy -d reanno -p GPL15303 -s 9 -d /Users/dev/Data/blast-indexes/GRCh38.p13/GRCh38.p13
```

1. `-p GPL15303` probe reannotation for GPL15303
2. `-s 9` the 9th column of platform annotation file is probe sequence
3. `-d xxx` blast indexes location

if your reference sequences are download from GENCODE, enable `--gencode`
can extract gene symbol from gene ID:

```
geo-alchemy -d reanno -p GPL15303 -s 9 -d /Users/dev/Data/blast-indexes/GRCh38.p13/GRCh38.p13 --gencode
```

### preprocessing(microarray series only)

download metadata using network:

```
geo-alchemy pp -s GSE174772 -p GPL570 -g 11
```

1. `-s GSE174772` preprocessing for GSE174772
2. `-p GPL570` preprocessing samples who use GPL570 of GSE174772
3. `-g 11` NO.11 column of GPL570 annotation file is gene

this command generate 2 files under current directory:

1. clinical file `GSE174772_clinical.txt`
2. gene expression file `GSE174772_expression.txt`


use existed series metadata:

```python
import json
from geo_alchemy import SeriesParser


series = SeriesParser.from_accession('GSE174772').parse()
data = series.to_dict()


with open('GSE174772.json', 'w') as fp:
   json.dump(data, fp)
```

```
geo-alchemy pp -sf GSE174772.json -g 11
```

using existing probe gene mapping file.
usually you use `geo-alchemy reanno` do probe reannotation,
this make you get a probe gene mapping file, you can:

```
geo-alchemy reanno -p GPL6480 -s 17 -d /Users/dev/Data/blast-indexes/GRCh38.p13/GRCh38.p13 --gencode
geo-alchemy pp -s GSE12435 -m GPL6480_reanno.txt
```
