[Gmod-ajax] Question on basic database paradigm

[Saccone, S. <ssa...@wu...>]

Hello, I have implemented and worked with GBrowse in the past and was considering working with JBrowse. I'm confused about how the data is sent from the server to the JBrowse client. In the human demo page I see lots of GET calls to .json files and I see that at http://jbrowse.org/ucsc/hg19/data/tracks/chr2/SNPs-130/ you have stored many .json files. Is it true that the only way to get the data from the server to the client is by creating many, presumably reasonably sized, .json files on the server? Or is there a way to use, say, PHP and MySQL, to automate the transmission of JSON data? For example, instead what looks to me like an Ajax call to
GET http://jbrowse.org/ucsc/hg19/data/tracks/chr1/Ge...riants-CEU-mother-2892//lazyfeatures-180819.json<http://jbrowse.org/ucsc/hg19/data/tracks/chr1/Ge...riants-CEU-mother-2892/lazyfeatures-180819.json>, could JBrowse be configured to do the same thing with PHP where "ucsc", "hg19", etc, are all arguments?

Thanks,

Scott
