About the acjson project ...

This is a python3 library to produce and process acjson objects.

Acjson (assay coordinate java script object notation) is in the big picture a json syntax (http://json.org/) compatible file format, that was developed to capture the most essential experimental annotations of a biological wetlab experiment, how ever simple or complicated the layout may be.

In the guts of this file format is each experimental condition described as a single coordinate.

Each coordinate is an adaptation of the input-processing-output (IPO) model from software engineering, which is used to describe the structure of an information processing program. In the biological experiment use-case, these are represented by (SPE) sample, perturbation, and assay endpoints, which are represented as three axes.

Each of this axis can hold as many sample or reagent records as needed to describe the experimental condition.

This library can produce and process such acjson objects.
