InSoLiToAPI

API of InSoLiTo where you can query a tool via API GET and it displays it in the webpage.

How to use it

Before run the repository, you must have the InSoLiTo database already deployed.

To compile the webpage you need to do the following:

• Install webpack and dependencies with npm:

cd FRONTEND
npm install express webpack webpack-cli webpack-dev-middleware html-webpack-plugin

• Now, you have to run webpack in order to prepare and deploy the InSoLiTo site, which will be deployed at ../dist subdirectory. Before running the command, make sure that the database credentials in the src/config.json file are correct to connect the webpage with the database.

npm run build

And to have it as a server use:

npm start

The current installation is done with npm v8.19.4 and node v16.20.2.

Search the most co-occurrent tools of trimAl (10th most co-occurrent tools by default):

http://localhost:3000/openebench?tool=trimAl

Limit the query for the 2 most co-occurrent tools:

http://localhost:3000/openebench?tool=trimAl&limit=2

List of tools found in the database (limit by 10 as default):

http://localhost:3000/listTools

List of tools found in the database, limited by 5 and skip the first tool:
