What does BugSigDBExports do?

At the core of the repo is the dump_release.R script which

  1. obtains and merges the exported study, experiment, and signature tables from https://bugsigdb.org/Help:Export,
  2. filters incomplete records,
  3. adds signature IDs,
  4. writes the full dump to csv, and
  5. writes GMT files of signatures for all combinations of ID type and taxonomic level.

This script is invoked automatically every hour via a cron job.
