Getting Started

This tutorial will help you through the first steps using hEIDI. All the hEIDI features are not explained here.

Connecting

First of all, we need to get a connection on a Mass Spectrometer Identification database (MSI db). In the Service window, select the database server hosting the MSI DB and enter connection properties in approprated field.

Connection to a postgres server

hEIDI Projects

It is possible to create hEIDI projects in order to organise data. For now, data consist of SQL queries… To create a Project, click right in the Project window or choose File > New Project menu and only specify the project name in the wizard.

SQL Queries

Once the connection is successful, the first simple feature is to explore the database or create SQL queries. The MSI database model is available here (FIXME).

You can create new SQL files from hEIDI project (File > New File menu then choose Empty File or directly New Empty File from hEIDI Project window) . It is also possible to select a Table under database connection and choose Veiw Data.

SQL queries sample

Open MSI Session

To open a working session on the MS identification database, select the connection in Service Window and open menu MS Identification > Open session.
