Gene Ids & description in DEXSeq html report

[pm2012]

Hi All
I am using DEXSeq to identify differential exon usage in my dataset that has two conditions. I was able to follow all the instructions from the vignettes/manuals for the tool and produce a nice final report. However, I wanted to display external gene ID (gene symbol) and description of the gene in the final reports as two additional columns. I saw several examples posted by various people that shows a report with these two columns. However, I didn't find any specific instructions as to how I can do that. I am a newbie with R packages & bioconductor in general and maybe asking a very basic question..but I would really appreciate any help I can get. Thanks.

Please see the help to DEXSeqHTML (i.e., type "?DEXSeqHTML" in R after loading DEXSeq), and there,. specifically the option "extraCols".

Thanks Simon for your reply.
After a little bit of tinkering around I was able to find a solution. This might be helpful for others in my shoes.
Here's a copy/paste of what I used to get my desired output. Few more steps are required before this tho (e.g creating an object called mart etc.).

DEXSeqHTML(ecs,geneIDs=NULL,fitExpToVar="condition",FDR=0.1, color=c("#FF000080", "#0000FF80"),mart=ensembl,filter="ensembl_gene_id",attributes=c("external_gene_id","description"),nCores=18)
