Calling a function

In order to call a functions from a particular class, corresponding object should be defined.

E.g. for functions related to OmixAtlas,

omixatlas = OmixAtlas()
output = omixatlas.<function_name>(<args if any>)
Similarly, for functions related to Workspaces,
workspaces = Workspaces()
output = workspaces.=<function_name>(<args if any>)

For example,

omixatlas = OmixAtlas()
result = omixatlas.query_metadata(<sql_query>)
