## General information
protGear is a package for protein micro-array data processing just before the main analysis.

The package loads the '`gpr`' or '`txt`' file format extracted by the quantification software and merges this with the specific sample identifiers. The package processes multiple files extracted in a batch with their corresponding sample identifier file. The sample identifier file has 2 variables '`v1`' and '`v2`' which indicate the mini-array or block number and sample identifier respectively. The '`gpr`' file and the corresponding sample identifier file have the same file name. protGear also provides a web based $Shiny^{(R)}$ platform for real time visualization of the data processing.

There is a package vignette included with this package with a step by step use of the package. Check https://keniajin.github.io/protGear/ under articles.

## Installing the devel package

``` r
library(remotes)
remotes::install_github("keniajin/protGear")
```

## Installing from Bioc BioConductor

``` r
## install from BioConductor
if (!require("BiocManager", quietly = TRUE)) {
install.packages("BiocManager")
}
BiocManager::install("protGear")
```

## To run the shiny application
To use the application locally on your compute install R and launch the app using the following command.
`protGear::launch_protGear_interactive()`

To Install R:
- Open an Internet browser and go to www.r-project.org.
- Under "Getting Started" click the "download R" link
- Select a CRAN location (a mirror site) and click the corresponding link.
