Documentation for Developers

Other modules

EMMA uses other software packages, so you might need to consult documentation specific to those packages:

GPMS (aka. projectmanagement) is required by almost all CeBiTec software. It is used for user, password and project management, rights and roles. See the Self:GPMSWiki if you need more information about project creation, Applicationframes, Members, Rights, and Roles.
ArrayLIMS is required for storing raw data. In EMMA it is used within Importer modules. See Self:ArrayLIMSWiki
O2DBI is the object-relational mapping system use to implement the database backend. If you need to know about code generation or even want to modify EMMA's database model consult Self:O2DBIWiki
GOParc is used to manage KEGG pathways and plot espression data into pathway images. There is no Self:GOParcWiki yet, but the modules in cvs/GOParc/share/perl contain a basic amount of inline POD documentation.
OntoDB is used to manage ontology entries from the MGED ontology. There is the Self:OntologyDBWiki, in addition the modules in cvs/ontodb/share/perl contain a basic amount of inline POD documentation.
