MOTIVATION
We present a Web service to access Ensembl data using Representational State Transfer (REST). The Ensembl REST server enables the easy retrieval of a wide range of Ensembl data by most programming languages, using standard formats such as JSON and FASTA while minimizing client work. We also introduce bindings to the popular Ensembl Variant Effect Predictor tool permitting large-scale programmatic variant analysis independent of any specific programming language.
AVAILABILITY AND IMPLEMENTATION
The Ensembl REST API can be accessed at http://rest.ensembl.org and source code is freely available under an Apache 2.0 license from http://github.com/Ensembl/ensembl-rest.
动机
我们提供了一个网络服务，用于通过表述性状态转移（REST）访问Ensembl数据。Ensembl REST服务器能够让大多数编程语言以JSON和FASTA等标准格式轻松检索各种Ensembl数据，同时将客户端的工作量减到最小。我们还引入了与广受欢迎的Ensembl变异效应预测工具的绑定，从而允许进行大规模的编程式变异分析，而无需依赖任何特定的编程语言。
可用性和实现方式
Ensembl REST API可通过http://rest.ensembl.org访问，其源代码可在http://github.com/Ensembl/ensembl-rest上根据Apache 2.0许可免费获取。
