CMviz is an online tool for visualizing covariance models in nucleotide sequences.
If you would like to use the tool or are interested in the structure of the project itself, please consult our Wiki.
This project uses Python 3.6 and the following Python libraries:
Django==3.0.7
django-bootstrap4==2.1.1
djangorestframework==3.11.0
pandas==1.0.5
It also uses the ViennaRNA package (https://github.com/ViennaRNA/viennarna).
It is good to work in a virtual environment to prevent incompatibilities. You can create one quickly by running python3 -m venv {env-name}, and activate it by running source {env-name}/bin/activate.
You can install dependencies in the active Python environment by running:
python3 -m pip install -r requirements.txt
If the active Python environment has all the necessary libraries installed, launch the local server by running:
python3 manage.py runserver
