@karissawhiting karissawhiting released this 28 Sep 13:59

This version makes the package compatible with cBioPortal v5.0. Main updates include:

  • Fusion API endpoint URLs updated to use structural-variant instead of fusion in specification.
  • get_structural_variants_by_sample() and get_structural_variants_by_study() added as aliases for get_fusions_by_sample() and get_fusions_by_study(). These functions return the same results as their fusion counterparts and both names will be supported.
  • When functions include the data_type argument, structural_variant is now available as option. This will return the same results as fusion.
  • Output of get_genetics_by_sample() and get_genetics_by_study() functions are now named lists with names: mutation, cna, and structural_variant (changed from fusion) to be consistent with cBioPortal v5.0 naming conventions.
  • Tests and examples are no longer run on CRAN to protect from future changes to internal database. They are still run in Github Actions and examples are run on website.
  • Some examples adjusted to use a new cBioPortal profile name, as needed (e.g. prad_msk_2019_structural_variants -> prad_msk_2019_structural_variants)
  • bug fix in add_hugo argument of get_*_by_sample() functions.
