The Main Lab Bioinformatics team is happy to announce the release of Tripal MegaSearch v1.4.0 https://gitlab.com/mainlabwsu/tripal_megasearch/
Release Note:
Tripal MegaSearch v1.4.0 contains bug fixes and new features, including:
1. Extra fields/filters on static forms
- Updated static forms with extra fields/filters for Marker/Map/QTL/Pub/Gene Search
2. New search
- Added Ortholog/Paralog Search
3. Subset download
- Allowed downloading subset of results by selecting row(s) from the table. Can be turned on/off with the 'checkbox_filter' setting in the MView definition conf file.
4. MView stats
- Displayed MView statistics and dates on MegaSearch landing page (See screenshot in the README)
5. Sequence retrieval tool
- Added Sequence Retrieval Tool for inclusion of flanking sequences in the Download for Gene/Marker Search. (Enabled from the Admin interface, screenshot in the README)
6. Direct URL for search
- Added direct URL link for individual search. For example, path '/tripal_megasearch?datatype=tripal_megasearch_gene' leads directly to the MegaSearch Gene Search
7. Short static forms
- Through Chado Search settings (under the User Interface section, i.e. /admin/mainlab/chado_search/settings), configure fieldsets to open/close like an accordion which make the static forms shorter and more succinct
8. Performance optimization
- drush commands for managing MView indexes and partitioning tables (See the 'Performance' section in the README)
9. UI refresh for Ajax calls
- Updated UI theme when AJAX calls are made
10. Maintenance message - For long maintenance operations such as populating a big MView, allowed displaying a maintenance message if 'maintenance' = TRUE is set in the MView definition conf file.
