Hi, I am thinking of writing a plugin that reformats a tiling array biossay set to GFF (http://www.sanger.ac.uk/Software/formats/GFF/GFF_Spec.shtml) and WIG format (http://genome.ucsc.edu/goldenPath/help/wiggle.html). It seems the best way would be to build an Export plugin. I have a had a look at the the example plugins and it makes sense so far but I have some questions. Any help or pointers to relevant docs or example/existing code would great!
1) For each reporter there is an chromosome start and stop (imported as part of the annotations for the reporter) and I will need to use this to construct the file. How can I access reporter information from a plugin? 2) Is it possible to set a custom Type (i.e non BASE) of the exported file so it can be filtered e.g. GFF or WIG under the 'Files and directories' section ? 3) With an exported file is there a method to add comments to the 'description' property? Can the text in these comments be hyperlinked? 4) Is it possible to add a custom 'Action' in 'Files and directories' so that the output could exported directly to another database or uploaded to a genome browser?
