Dalliance is a genome viewing tool that aims to offer a high level of interactivity while working entirely within your web browser. It works with current versions of Chrome, Firefox, and Safari and (with minor visual glitches) Internet Explorer 11. It is also usable with current mobile web browsers.
To try it, visit https://www.biodalliance.org/human37.html.
Dalliance has now switched to a Gulp-based build system. It it still possible to use the files in the js directory directly, but this is now deprecated and may not be supported in future.
Before building, please install Node.js, which is needed for the NPM package manager.
To build for use in MOLGENIS:
(sudo?) npm install -g gulp
npm install # Install dependencies
gulp compile # Build Dalliance
rename dalliance-all.js in the /build folder to dalliance-all.min.js
at the bottom of dalliance-all.min.js replace //# sourceMappingURL=dalliance-all.js.map with //# sourceMappingURL=/js/dalliance-all.js.map
copy dalliance-all.min.js to the src/main/resources/js folder in the data-explorer module in the MOLGENIS repo
See the website.
Dalliance is under active development and we welcome your suggestions. Right now, probably the best place for bug reports or feature requests is the Github issue tracker.
There is also a mailing list where the project can be discussed.
