This page details the data services that query the Phenoscape OBD database and transfer the retrieved results to the Phenoscape UI. Each service may support multiple media types. The desired media type can be specified by appending ?media=json or similar to the request URL. URI specifications are defined (loosely) using URI Templates.

Phenoscape Knowledgebase data services (under development)

These are currently only available at http://kb-dev.phenoscape.org/OBD-WS/

Timestamp

URI

<BASE URI>/timestamp

This service returns the date on which the Knowledgebase content was refreshed.

Returns

JSON: <javascript> { "refresh_date":"2010-01-09" }

</javascript>

Term info

URI

<BASE URI>/term/{term_id}

This is a generic term info service returning basic properties and relationships of a term, given its ID. The returned relationships are those included in the source ontology for the term, not all links to the term in the Knowledgebase.

Returns

JSON: <javascript> {

   "id": "TAO:0000620",
   "definition": "Endochondral bone that is part of the antero-lateral region of the palate.

Commonly, it articulates with the maxilla anterolaterally and with the ethmoidal region medially. It may also articulate with the dermopalatine ventro-laterally and with the entopterygoid posteriorly. The autopalatine is paired.",

Error

If there is no term with the given ID, the service should return "404 Not Found".

Bulk term name mapper

URI

<BASE URI>/term/names

This service accepts a list of term IDs returns a JSON mapping of IDs to names. Rank and extinct status are included in the output for taxon terms.

Accepts via POST

JSON: <javascript> { "ids":["TAO:0000620", "TTO:1380", "TTO:11021", "ZFIN:ZDB-GENE-061116-1"] } </javascript>

Returns

JSON: <javascript> {"terms":[ {"id":"TAO:0000620","name":"autopalatine"}, {"id":"TTO:1380","extinct":false,"rank":{"id":"TAXRANK:0000003","name":"order"},"name":"Siluriformes"}, {"id":"TTO:11021","extinct":false,"rank":{"id":"TAXRANK:0000004","name":"family"},"name":"Erethistidae"}, {"id":"ZFIN:ZDB-GENE-061116-1","name":"foxe1"}]} </javascript>

Autocomplete

URI

<BASE URI>/term/search?text=[input]&name=[true|false]&syn=[true|false]&ontology=[ont1,ont2,...]&type=[type1,type2,...]&limit=[count]

All URI parameters are optional except for text. Default values are name=true, syn=false. The ontology parameter should be a comma-separated list of ontology prefixes to search within (any of tao, go, pato, tto, zfin, pspub). The type parameter should be any of: entity, quality, taxon, gene, pub. If no ontology or type is given, the default is to search all ontologies. The limit parameter limits the number of results to the given integer count.

Returns

JSON: <javascript> {

   "matches": [{
       "match_text": "Brachydanio rerio",
       "id": "TTO:1001979",
       "match_type": "syn",
       "name": "Danio rerio"
   },
   {
       "match_text": "Cyprinus rerio",
       "id": "TTO:1001979",
       "match_type": "syn",
       "name": "Danio rerio"
   },
   {
       "match_text": "Danio rerio",
       "id": "TTO:1001979",
       "match_type": "name",
       "name": "Danio rerio"
   }],
   "search_term": "rerio"

} </javascript>

Error

If there are no terms matching the given input, a document should still be returned, containing an empty results list.

Gene annotations

URI

<BASE URI>/annotation/gene?query=[url-encoded-json]&sortby=[gene|entity|quality|relatedentity]&limit=[count]&index=[start_index]&desc=[true|false]

All URI parameters are optional. If no JSON-formatted query specification is provided, all gene annotations will be returned. The limit parameter limits the number of results to the given integer count. This must be a positive integer. The index parameter can be used for pagination under a given sorting and limit regime. It should be greater than or equal to zero (the default). desc can be used to return the results in descending order (it is false by default). If a value is not provided for sortby, the sort order, limit, and start index are not very useful.

Phenotype query specification

The value of the query parameter should be an annotation query represented as JSON, following this structure (in practice it should be collapsed as far as possible to shorten the URL):

<javascript> {

   "gene": [
   {
       "id": "ZFIN:XXXX"
   },
   {
       "id": "ZFIN:YYYY"
   }

       }
   }
   ],
   "include_inferred": false

} </javascript> It should be URL-encoded to include in the request.

Taxa

URI

<BASE URI>/taxon/annotated?query=[url-encoded-json]&sortby=[taxon|family|order]&limit=[count]&index=[start_index]&desc=[true|false]

All URI parameters are optional. If no JSON-formatted query specification is provided, all annotated taxa will be returned. The limit parameter limits the number of results to the given integer count. This must be a positive integer. The index parameter can be used for pagination under a given sorting and limit regime. It should be greater than or equal to zero (the default). desc can be used to return the results in descending order (it is false by default).

Publications

URI

<BASE URI>/publication/annotated?query=[url-encoded-json]&sortby=[publication]&limit=[count]&index=[start_index]&desc=[true|false]

All URI parameters are optional. If no JSON-formatted query specification is provided, all publications will be returned. The limit parameter limits the number of results to the given integer count. This must be a positive integer. The index parameter can be used for pagination under a given sorting and limit regime. It should be greater than or equal to zero (the default). desc can be used to return the results in descending order (it is false by default). If a value is not provided for sortby, the sort order, limit, and start index are not very useful.

Phenotype query specification

The value of the query parameter should be an annotation query represented as JSON, following this structure (in practice it should be collapsed as far as possible to shorten the URL):

<javascript> {

   "taxon": [
   {
       "id": "TTO:XXXX"
   },
   {
       "id": "TTO:YYYY"
   }
   ],
   "phenotype": [
   {
       "entity": {
           "id": "TAO:XXXX",
           "including_parts": false
       },
       "quality": {
           "id": "PATO:XXXX"
       },
       "related_entity": {
           "id": "TAO:YYYYY"
       }
   }
   ],
   "publication": [
    {
      "id": "PSPUB:1243"
    }
   ],
   "match_all_phenotypes": false,
   "match_all_publications": false,
   "include_inferred": false

} </javascript> It should be URL-encoded to include in the request.
