Protein Viewer

pv is a WebGL-based protein viewer whose goal is to once-for-all end the reign of Java applets on websites that require visualisation of protein structures. This repository implements bio-pv as a Web Component.

Component user docs: adding this component to your webpage

Hey! If you'd like to use this component on your webpage, please do the following:

In the <head>, add:

<!-- the library for the webcomponent -->
<script src="dist/bundle.js" type="module"></script>

You should have a dist folder with bundle.js in your directory just like this repository. The pdb file should be in the same directory (at the same level) as index.html. You can import it from this repository.

This links to the relevant scripts to define the component and fetch data.

In the <body>

Where you want your Web Component to appear, add the following:
