easyshiny is a R package to quickly create an interactive web application to visualise and explore single-cell data.
Run the following code to check if the dependency packages are installed, else install them if required:
pkgs = c("bslib", "data.table", "DT", "ggdendro", "ggplot2", "ggplotify", "ggrepel", "glue", "grid", "hdf5r", "magrittr", "Matrix", "patchwork", "RColorBrewer", "readr", "remotes", "reticulate", "Seurat", "shiny", "shinycssloaders", "shinyhelper") pkg = pkgs[!(pkgs %in% installed.packages()[,"Package"])] if(length(pkg)){install.packages(pkg)} # optional if you want to use custom fonts install.packages("showtext") # If you are using h5ad file as input, run the code below as well # reticulate::py_install("anndata")easyshiny can then be installed from GitHub as follows:
remotes::install_github("NBISweden/easyshiny")For usage and deploy guide, see here.
