CyThesaurus is a plugin for performing ID mapping/translation for Cytoscape networks. In this version, the plugin supports translating node attributes in networks from source ID types to the target ID types and save the translated IDs in new attributes. The plugin utilized a ID mapping Java API package, called BridgeDb. It supports mapping IDs using different resources including text files, .pgdb Derby embeded files, and several web services, such as BioMart, PICR and Synergizer.
CyThesaurus plugin also provides ID mapping services for other Cytoscape plugins. To consume the services, you can simply include the CyThesaurusService package in your plugin project and call methods in the CyThesaurusServiceClient.
It is worth mentioning that a package supporting inter-plugin communication in Cytoscape 2.6.x was developed in the project. To support communication between plugins, you can include the cytoscape-plugins-comm package in your plugins and then passing messages among them. The source code and Java doc for the package is also available.
