Getting Started

Basic Example

import {Sketch} from "@vimo-public/vimo-sketches";
import {useState} from "react";

function App() {
    const [attributes, setAttributes] = useState({
      displayMotifCount: false,
    });

    const processRequest = async (motifJson, lim) => {
        console.log("This function is called upon clicking the search button.");
    };
    return (
        <div>
            <Sketch processRequest={processRequest} attributes={attributes} />
        </div>
    );
}
export default App;

Node & Edge Attributes

If you want to add attributes to nodes or edges, please refer react-awesome-query-builder config fields. Also here's an example

import {Sketch} from "@vimo-public/vimo-sketches";

function App() {

    const attributes = {
        NodeFields: {
            node_attr_1: {
                label: "attr1_name",
                type: "text",
            },
            node_attr_2: {
                label: "attr2_name",
                type: "select",
                fieldSettings: {
                    showSearch: true,
                    listValues: [
                        "alpha",
                        "betha",
                        "theta",
                    ],
                },
                valueSources: ["value"],
                operators: ["select_equals", "select_not_equals"],
            },
        },
        EdgeFields: {
            edge_attr_1: {
                label: "attr1_name",
                type: "number",
                fieldSettings: {
                    min: 0,
                },
                valueSources: ["value"],
                preferWidgets: ["number"],
            },
            edge_attr_2: {
                label: "attr2_name",
                type: "number",
                operators: ["greater", "less", "equal"],
                valueSources: ["value"],
            },
        },
    }
    const processRequest = async (motifJson, lim) => {
        // this function is called when the user clicks the "Search" button
        console.log(motifJson);
        console.log(lim);
    };
    return (
        <div>
            <Sketch processRequest={processRequest} attributes={attributes}/>
        </div>
    );
}

export default App;

Searching Motifs in NeuPrint

We provide a direct interface to sketch & search for networks motifs in large connectome data sets hosted on Neuprint. Here's an example of how to use it.

import React, { useEffect, useState } from "react";
import {Sketch, NeuprintExecutor} from '@vimo-public/vimo-sketches';

function App() {
  const token = "ADD YOUR TOKEN HERE"; // copy token from here https://neuprint.janelia.org/account
  const data_server = "https://neuprint.janelia.org/";
  const data_version = "hemibrain:v1.2.1";
  const vimo_server = "http://127.0.0.1:4242"; // setup instructions https://github.com/VCG/vimo-server
  const ne = new NeuprintExecutor(
    data_server,
    data_version,
    token,
    vimo_server
  );

  const processRequest = async (motifJson, lim) => {
    const query = await ne.json2cypher(motifJson, lim);
    console.log(query);
    return query;
  };

  const [isQuerying, setIsQuerying] = useState(false);
  
  const [attributes, setAttributes] = useState({
      displayMotifCount: false,
      getMotifCount: ne.getMotifCount,
      getRelativeMotifCount: ne.getRelativeMotifCount,
      isQuerying: isQuerying,
  });
  
  useEffect(async () => {
    setAttributes({
      ...attributes,
      NodeFields: await ne.getNodeFields(),
      EdgeFields: await ne.getEdgeFields(),
    });
  }, []);

  return (
    <div>
      <Sketch processRequest={processRequest} attributes={attributes} />
    </div>
  );
}

export default App;

Token can be found in here.

NeuprintExecutor Parameters

Name	Description	Type
token	neuPrint authentication token	String
data_server	url of database (e.g., 'https://neuprint.janelia.org/')	String
data_version	name and version of dataset (e.g., 'hemibrain:v1.2.1')	String

Output

This component turns motif sketch into JSON. This is an example of the JSON. This JSON can be converted to a Cypher query using the json2cypher method of the NeuprintExecutor class.

    nodes: [
      {
        label: "A",
        properties: null,
