Gos: a declarative library for interactive genomics visualization in Python
Trevor Manz, Sehi L’Yi, Nils Gehlenborg
Abstract
SUMMARY: Gos is a declarative Python library designed to create interactive multiscale visualizations of genomics and epigenomics data. It provides a consistent and simple interface to the flexible Gosling visualization grammar. Gos hides technical complexities involved with configuring web-based genome browsers and integrates seamlessly within computational notebooks environments to enable new interactive analysis workflows. AVAILABILITY AND IMPLEMENTATION: Gos is released under the MIT License and available on the Python Package Index (PyPI). The source code is publicly available on GitHub (https://github.com/gosling-lang/gos), and documentation with examples can be found at https://gosling-lang.github.io/gos.
