PyEDS

The PyEDS is a Python library providing collection of utilities to conveniently access and display results from Thermo Discoverer software like Compound Discoverer or Proteome Discoverer. Although the data are stored in open format already (SQLite database), reading complex hierarchies is still not a trivial task and requires certain knowledge of internal mechanisms. Using PyEDS, all the hard work is done automatically, so you can focus more on your research instead of how to read the data.

The PyEDS library provides several tools to read data (pyeds.EDS), displaying tables metadata (pyeds.Summary) as well as displaying actual data in nicely formatted tables (pyeds.Review).

Please see the examples folder to learn more about available tools and functions.

Show File Info

import pyeds

# open result file using 'with' statement
with pyeds.Summary("examples/data.cdResult") as summary:
    
    # show full info
    summary.ShowAll()

Reading Individual Tables

import pyeds

# open result file using 'with' statement
with pyeds.EDS("examples/data.cdResult") as eds:
    
    # read top 10 most abundant compounds in specific RT range
    items_iter = eds.Read("Compounds",
        query = "RetentionTime > 3.8 AND RetentionTime < 4.1 AND Name != ''",
        order = "MaxArea",
        desc = True,
        limit = 10)
    
    # print some properties
    for item in items_iter:
        print(item.Name, item.Formula, item.RetentionTime)

Reading Hierarchies

import pyeds

# open result file using 'with' statement
with pyeds.EDS("examples/data.cdResult") as eds:
    
    # define connection path and items to keep
    path = ["Compounds", "BestHitIonInstanceItem", "MassSpectrumItem"]
    keep = ["Compounds", "MassSpectrumItem"]
    
    # limit spectra to MS2 only
    queries = {
        "BestHitIonInstanceItem": "BestHitType = 2",
        "MassSpectrumItem": "MSOrder = 2"}
    
    # read 2 most abundant items only
    orders = {"Compounds": "MaxArea"}
    descs = {"Compounds": True}
    limits = {"Compounds": 2}
    
    # read data
    items_iter = eds.ReadHierarchy(
        path,
        keep = keep,
        queries = queries,
        orders = orders,
        descs = descs,
        limits = limits)
    
    # print some properties
    for item in items_iter:
        
        # print compound properties
        print(item.Name, item.Formula, item.RetentionTime)
        
        # print mass spectra
        for child in item.Children:
            print("\t", child.Spectrum)

Display Tables

import pyeds

# init tools
eds = pyeds.EDS("examples/data.cdResult")
review = pyeds.Review(eds)

# open result file and review using the 'with' statement
with eds, review:
    
    # read data
    path = ["Compounds", "Compounds per File"]
    items = eds.ReadHierarchy(path,
        limits = {"Compounds": 3},
        orders = {"Compounds": "MaxArea"},
        descs = {"Compounds": True})
    
    # display full hierarchy
    review.InsertItems(items, hierarchy=True, header=True)

# show review
review.Show()

Requirements

Installation

The PyEDS library is fully implemented in Python. No additional compiler is necessary. After downloading the source code just run the following command from the folder containing the setup.py. Unfortunately there is already a package with the same name on pypi.org therefore we cannot distribute it there.

$ python setup.py install

or

$ pip install .
