Usage

download_project(
  project_id,
  auth_token,
  destination = "scpca_data",
  format = "sce",
  merged = FALSE,
  include_multiplexed = NULL,
  overwrite = FALSE,
  redownload = FALSE,
  quiet = FALSE
)

Arguments

project_id

The ScPCA project ID (e.g. "SCPCP000001")

auth_token

An authorization token obtained from get_auth()

destination

The path to the directory where the unzipped file directory should be saved. Default is "scpca_data".

format

The desired file format, either "sce" (SingleCellExperiment), "anndata" (AnnData/H5AD), or "spatial" (for spatial data in Space Ranger format). Default is "sce".

merged

Download merged data files, if available. Default is FALSE.

include_multiplexed

Include multiplexed samples, if available. Default is TRUE for SingleCellExperiment and FALSE for AnnData and spatial samples, where multiplexed data are not available.

overwrite

Whether to overwrite files in existing directories if they already exist. Note that files in existing directories that do not have the same name as one of the downloaded files will not be deleted. Default is FALSE.

redownload

Whether to re-download if files from the same project and format already exist. If FALSE, existing files will be returned. Default is FALSE.

quiet

Whether to suppress download progress messages. Default is FALSE.

Value

Examples


if (FALSE) { # \dontrun{
# Get a token first
auth_token <- get_auth("your.email@example.com", agree = TRUE)
# Then ask for a sample download
download_project("SCPCS000001", auth_token, destination = "scpca_data", format = "sce")

# Downloading merged files in AnnData format
download_project(
  "SCPCS000001",
  auth_token,
  destination = "scpca_data",
  format = "anndata",
  merged = TRUE
)
} # }
