This RMarkdown document demonstrates how key elements from the github notebook for the meta functionalities can be achieved using the R package. For detailed explanations of the case study please refer to the notebook on github.
Here we show the following aspects of the EpiGraphDB platform, and how to use the API to get the information:

Here we query for the metadata information using the endpoint GET /meta/schema
, which will be used for downstream processing.

We can extract the specific meta node information as a dataframe from the metadata.

meta_node_df pluck("nodes") %>%

as_tibble() %>%
mutate(meta_node = names) %>%
# Hide properties column which does not display well
select(meta_node, count) %>%
# We also need to flatten count
mutate(count = flatten_int(count))
}

meta_node_df arrange(meta_node) %>%
mutate(count = format(count, big.mark = ","))

Users can use the explorer on the Web UI to search for a specific node by:
Here we show how these are done at the API level using Gwas
nodes as an example.
First we need to know what the “ID” and “name” fields are for the meta nodes using GET /meta/nodes/id-name-schema
:

endpoint <- query_epigraphdb(
meta_node_fields route = endpoint, params = NULL, mode = "raw"
)

Here we search for nodes can contain “body mass index” in their traits.

Similarly, we can exact match a specific node by its ID.
