This repository contains the JSON schema files for importing data into RNAcentral. The goal is create a generic, simple method of importing data into RNAcentral. Currently the schema here are under review are are not ready for real world use case. If you are interested in providing feedback please open an issue or pull request.

The work here is based off the agr_schemas version 0.6.2. The top level schema is rnacentral-schema.json with subsections stored in sections. Examples will be found in examples and a validation script is provided in validate.py.

The validation script requires the python packages found in requirements.txt. Install them with pip install -r requirements.txt. Validation is not yet provided as a library, but may be in the future.

The validator script in ./validate.py can be used to validate files. Below are some example usages:

./validate.py examples/flybase.json

If you have moved schema files, or the directory of sections around you can use the --schema or --sections options. Like:

./validate.py --schema different-schema.json --sections new-sections.json examples/flybase.json
