Wrap XCMS dataset in a package?

Hi,
I was wondering if there is an R utility to wrap XCMS datasets in a package? Something like the FaaKO datasets in XCMS installation. This package would be portable and convenient for my collaborators to do followup stat analysis.

thanks,
Xiyan

There is no such utilitly. But you can simply save your xcmsSet into an R data file.
Code: [Select]
xs <- xcmsSet(...)
save(xs, file="xs.rdat")
and later it can be restored using
Code: [Select]
load("xs.rdat")
By the way, XCMS Online offers a feature that allows you to share your data with your collaborators.

Ralf,
Thanks for the quick reply. I did save the xcmsSet the way you said but didn't realize it could be used that way.

best,
