Re: [Gmod-schema] chado modules

[Joe C. <jwc...@lb...>]

Hi,

There is a need for a module like this. The existing solutions and work around are a bit messy. I’ve been trying out this module for representing our protein families. And trading some email with Mara Kim, the author.

I had a couple of suggestions about nomenclature and syntax (for example, in feature_grpmember, the column grpmember_id references grp and not grpmember.)

I also think that a couple more fields in grp are needed: dbxref_id to reference the primary dbxref and an is_obsolete boolean.

This also seems to me to be a case where table inheritance may be useful. I know there can be some performance problems with table inheritance but it might be useful if there are many different types of ‘things’ that people want to put into groups.

Currently, there is not Tripal module to support it.   Although I believe there are some Tripal sites that may be using it and have some support.  If they read this and respond they may be able to share some insights.
