I would like to publish one huge table as Supplementary resources to a forthcoming paper. The R package 'plotly' enables the creation of interactive tables which can be searched, filtered for results. See one good example from a personal website at:
https://butterlab.imb-mainz.de/flydev/?data=embryogenesis
I would like to publish such a table in a data repository, linked to the main paper manuscript. Usually such repositories take uploaded files . I'd like to find a science data repository which would enable the posting of the table directly, to any readers wishing to peruse the raw data.
Please, would anyone know of such an outlet or be able to recommend an elegant solution?
My suggestion is to push the data in a github repo. It will also be easier for people to download and use it.
Just upload the data on Zenodo platform and cite it in the main paper using DOI the Zenodo platform assign to this dataset. You can see that on an example of one of my paper:
https://www.researchgate.net/publication/320595746_PLOS_ONE_-_a_case_study_of_citation_analysis_of_research_papers_based_on_the_data_in_an_open_citation_index_The_OpenCitations_Corpus
The limit of any dataset volume to be uloaded is 50GB.
Hi Nikos Korfiatis Thanks for a sound suggestion! However I find that Github is for depositing code and associated textual files, am I right?
The main point here is publishing the interactive plotly table per se, similar to the one given in the link of the question, which is rendered user-friendly and requires no subscription or expertise to browse.
Would you know of any feature in Github enabling that? Thanks
Dear Anna Małgorzata Kamińska Thanks for the link! I however could not find an example of an interactive plotly table in your link, nor at Zenodo. I found a .pdf and links to download files.
Can you please clarify, or say whether Zenodo has such a feature? Thanks
Dear Eduardo Goncalves Paterson Fox
now I see your point.
However scientific data repositories are designed to store raw data. They guarantee durability, versioning etc. but not manipulating that data. Even the preview functions of PDF or JPG are only additional features and every PDF reader will do it better. So the intention of such repositories is to store raw data that everybody can download and manipulate it locally in its own way.
Eduardo Goncalves Paterson Fox yes, its called github pages. See more here https://pages.github.com/
