ixn

library1.0.1jsnpmunverified

A lightweight package providing a cached dataset of biochemical pathway interactions from WikiPathways. Version 1.0.1 is the initial stable release. It offers a simple API for querying interaction data, including species, genes, and interactions. Key differentiators: no external database dependencies, pre-cached data for offline use, and minimal setup. Ideal for genomics and biochemistry applications requiring quick lookups without network latency.

Code

Verified usage

Verified import paths — ran on the pinned version, not inferred.

IxN

✓ import IxN from 'ixn'

✗ const IxN = require('ixn')

This is a default export; CJS require may not work depending on module system.

getInteractions

✓ import { getInteractions } from 'ixn'

✗ const { getInteractions } = require('ixn')

Named export; ensure bundler supports ESM.

InteractionsCache

✓ import { InteractionsCache } from 'ixn'

✗ import InteractionsCache from 'ixn'

Not a default export; used for advanced caching configuration.

Shows how to import the default IxN object and query interactions by gene symbol.

import IxN from 'ixn'; async function queryInteractions(gene) { const results = await IxN.getInteractions({ gene }); console.log(results); } queryInteractions('BRCA1');

Debug

Known issues

gotchaPackage uses ESM only; CommonJS require() may fail without transpilation.

fix

Use dynamic import() or configure a bundler to handle ESM.

affects: >=1.0.0

gotchaData is cached ahead of time; updates to WikiPathways require a new package version.

fix

Check for newer versions of the package periodically.

affects: >=1.0.0

gotchaQuery parameters may be case-sensitive (e.g., gene symbol uppercase).

fix

Normalize input to the expected casing (usually uppercase).

affects: >=1.0.0

Errors

Common errors & fixes

Error [ERR_MODULE_NOT_FOUND]: Cannot find module 'ixn'

Package not installed or import path wrong.

fix

Run npm install ixn and ensure import path is correct.

TypeError: IxN.getInteractions is not a function

Using wrong import style (default vs named).

fix

Use import IxN from 'ixn' or import { getInteractions } from 'ixn' as appropriate.

SyntaxError: Unexpected token 'export'

Node.js version <14 or CJS environment without transpilation.

fix

Upgrade Node.js to >=14 or use a bundler like Webpack/esbuild.
