MyVariant python client updated

by Ginger Tsueng

The MyVariant python client is now one...version 1.0.0 that is. With this update, the MyVariant python client continues to give python users an easy way to leverage the >750 million variant annotations available in MyVariant.info; however, the underlying architecture behind the MyVariant python client has been updated to utilize the BioThings API python client.

What does this mean?
This means that the MyVariant python package is now a thin wrapper of underlying biothings_client package, a universal Python client for all BioThings APIs, including MyVariant.info. The installation of myvariant will install biothings_client automatically. Basically, the MyVariant python client will pretty much work as it always did from a user's perspective...it's just a little different under the hood.
