Run the Syrona demo

Curated demo dataset → comparison → dashboard. Requires R ≥ 4.1.

Version: Terminal

Open Terminal and copy-paste each block. You stay at the shell prompt the whole time.

1. Install (once):

   Rscript -e 'install.packages("syrona")'
   # not on CRAN yet? install from GitHub:
   # Rscript -e 'install.packages("remotes")'
   # Rscript -e 'remotes::install_github("HealthInformaticsUT/Syrona")'

2. Run the comparison and launch the dashboard (opens in your browser; press Ctrl+C to stop):

   Rscript -e '
   library(syrona)
   base <- tempdir()   # or a folder you choose, e.g. base <- path.expand("~/syrona-demo")
   file.copy(system.file("extdata", "demo", package = "syrona"), base, recursive = TRUE)
   dir <- file.path(base, "demo")
   options(syrona.data_dir = dir)
   compare_all("demo_population", "demo_selected")
   run_app(data_dir = dir)
   '

Version: RStudio

Paste each block into the RStudio Console.

1. Install & load (install once):

   install.packages("syrona")   # once
   library(syrona)
   
   # not on CRAN yet? install from GitHub instead:
   # install.packages("remotes")
   # remotes::install_github("HealthInformaticsUT/Syrona")

2. Copy the bundled demo to a writable folder (the installed copy is read-only):

   base <- tempdir()   # or a folder you choose, e.g. base <- path.expand("~/syrona-demo")
   file.copy(system.file("extdata", "demo", package = "syrona"), base, recursive = TRUE)
   dir <- file.path(base, "demo")

3. Run the comparison workflow (writes data/comparisons/):

   options(syrona.data_dir = dir)
   compare_all("demo_population", "demo_selected")

4. Launch the dashboard:

   run_app(data_dir = dir)

The demo is a curated subset (32 concepts across conditions, procedures, and drugs) of the Est-Health-30 vs Estonian Biobank comparison. demo_population = general sample, demo_selected = biobank-like sample.
