Java API

bioLQM is written in Java and can be used as a Java library. This is currently the case for the GINsim and Epilog tools.

To use the Java API, we provide maven packages, as described in the Installation documentation.

Using the API

The main entry point for the Java API is the LQMServiceManager, which provides static methods to access the registered formats, modifiers and tools. Some bioLQM features which are not available through this object can be used by importing the right java classes directly, but their API is more likely to change (see the full javadoc).
