Prerequisites

Before launching the AGNE application, ensure all necessary packages are installed. To simplify this process, a script named Needed_packages.R is provided.

Steps to Install Required Packages:

  1. Open R or RStudio.

  2. Run the following command to execute the Needed_packages.R script:

    source("Needed_packages.R")

    This will automatically install and load all the required packages for the application.

  3. Ensure all installations are successful. If any errors occur, check your internet connection and verify R is configured to install packages.

File Details: - `Needed_packages.R`: Installs and loads all necessary R packages. - `AGNE_app.R`: The main application script.

Important Notes

  • Always run Needed_packages.R first to ensure all dependencies are installed.

  • If new packages are required for additional features, re-run the script to update your environment.

  • The AGNE application requires an active internet connection to install packages and access external resources such as the Gene Ontology and KEGG databases.
