Retrieve Drug Molecules in SMILES Format from the DrugBank Database
Usage
getSmiFromDrugBank(id, parallel = 5)
Arguments
- id
A character vector, as the DrugBank drug ID.
- parallel
An integer, the parallel parameter, indicates how many
process the user would like to use for retrieving
the data (using RCurl), default is 5

For regular cases, we recommend a number less than 20
.
Value
A length of id
character vector, each element containing
the corresponding drug molecule.
