This is the development version of MsStash; to use it, please install the devel version of Bioconductor.

Infrastructure to serialize and restore mass spectrometry data objects


Bioconductor version: Development (3.24)

The serialization mechanism of R allows to save and load R data objects in a binary format, that can however not be read by other programming languages or software. The MsStash package defines classes and method to enable serializing and restoring, or importing, mass spectrometry data objects to and from language agnostic file formats. A variety of different file types, including HDF5 and JSON-based formats defined by the Bioconductor *alabaster* package are supported. The file type can be defined and configured through a second argument `param` of the save/read methods. Additional packages extending MsStash provide the implementations to serialize/restore MS data objects.
