# remart

<!-- badges: start -->
<!-- badges: end -->

The remart package is a reimplementation of the biomaRt package, using the same interface, but with a different backend under the hood.
Indeed, the biomaRt package relies on the biomart online utility. But this utility is no longer maintained and is likely to be retired soon.

This package aims to offer a drop-in replacement using the more modern and better maintained APIs provided by Ensembl.

## Installation

You can install the development version of remart like so:

``` r
pak::pak("Huber-group-EMBL/remart")
```

## Example

```{r example}
library(remart)
remart::getSequence(
  seqType = "gene_exon_intron",
  type = "ensembl_gene_id",
  id = "ENSG00000001497"
)
```
