The idea is to allow a Cytoscape workflow to be written in one language (R or Python) and translated to another language (Python or R) without having to learn different Cytoscape interfaces. The previous Cytoscape Python interface (Py2Cytoscape) has different features than the Cytoscape R library, and is therefore deprecated. Additionally, this project attempts to maintain the same function signatures, return values, function implementation and module structure as the RCy3, thereby enabling smooth maintenance and evolution of both RCy3 and py4cytoscape . This project uses PyCharm because of its excellent code management and debugging features. Over time, py4cytoscape functionality should match RCy3 functionality. Once that occurs, novel Py2Cytoscape functions will be added to both as appropriate. The official Automation API definition met by both RCy3 and py4cytoscape is here. The API is versioned, and you can see which API version RCy3 or py4cytoscape implements by executing the cytoscape version info() or cytoscapeVersionInfo() function. An overall scorecard comparing Py2Cytoscape, RCy3 and py4cytoscape can be found here. Pay close attention to columns E and F, which show how much of RCy3 is reflected in py4cytoscape.
