Example using Styles

styles.Style provide a higher level mechanism for controlling figure aesthetics. You can use a preconfigured style or configure your own.

Preconfigured styles

• black_and_white

Example of using a preconfigured style:

import os
from libsbml_draw import SBMLlayout
from libsbml_draw.styles import Style, black_and_white
from libsbml_draw.utils import biomodels_download

model_id = 'BIOMD0000000096'

fname = model_id + '.xml'

# download the model
biomodels_download(model_id, fname)

# Use a preconfigured style directly out of the box
s = SBMLlayout(fname, style=black_and_white)

# draw the network
s.drawNetwork(model_id + ".png")

# write the newly generated layout and rendering information back to the
# sbml model
s.writeSBML(fname)

An example of creating your own style:

import os
from libsbml_draw import SBMLlayout
from libsbml_draw.styles import Style, black_and_white

def my_style():
    s = Style()
    s.node.color = 'green'
    s.node.edgewidth = 4
    s.font.color = 'red'
    s.font.size = 25
    s.edge.color = 'black'
    s.compartment.edgecolor = 'black
    return s

model_id = 'BIOMD0000000096'

fname = model_id + '.xml'

# download the model
biomodels_download(model_id, fname)

# Use a preconfigured style directly out of the box
s = SBMLlayout(fname, style=my_style)

# draw the network
s.drawNetwork(model_id + ".png")

# write the newly generated layout and rendering information back to the
# sbml model
s.writeSBML(fname)
