## Description of supported items

Partial meta information of tools/scripts and databases are saved in the followed files. You can get the file list by command `unname(unlist(get.meta()[1:4]))`.

We do not show the meta information of annovarR supported items in this vignette.

    library(BioInstaller)
    meta_info <- get.meta(read.config.params = list(rcmd.parse = TRUE))
    unname(unlist(meta_info[1:4]))
    #> [1] "/private/var/folders/nc/yl5qhkkn6vxf_m7s_yz2kzvh0000gn/T/RtmpAn3eId/Rinstbba16d1b57bc/BioInstaller/extdata/config/db/db_meta.toml"
    #> [2] "/private/var/folders/nc/yl5qhkkn6vxf_m7s_yz2kzvh0000gn/T/RtmpAn3eId/Rinstbba16d1b57bc/BioInstaller/extdata/config/github/github_meta.toml"
