Constraint-Based Reconstruction and EXascale Analysis

contributions welcome

Documentation Tests Coverage
docs-img CI codecov

This is package aims to provide constraint based reconstruction and analysis tools at the exa-scale in Julia.

Installation

To install this package: ] add ???. See the documentation for more information.

Quick Example

Let's use COBREXA.jl to perform classic flux balance analysis on an E. coli community.

using COBREXA

# download the model
model_file = COBREXA.Downloads.download("http://bigg.ucsd.edu/static/models/iJO1366.json", "iJO1366.json")

# Import E. coli models (models have pretty printing)
model_1 = read_model(model_file)
model_2 = read_model(model_file)
model_3 = read_model(model_file)

# Build an exascale model
exascale_model = join(model_1, model_2, model_3,...)

More funcionality is described in the documention, e.g. model construction and analysis in pure Julia.
