aind-data-transfer-lite

Getting Started

Who is this for?

You want to upload data to AIND's Cloud Storage platform on AWS.

Prerequisites

Authentication for write permissions to aind-open-data bucket. Please reach out to AIND Scientific Computing for access.

Installation

Install directly from PyPI. We recommend installing into a virtual environment or conda environment.

pip install aind-data-transfer-lite

Usage

You can interact with AIND Data Transfer Lite in two ways:

1. Launch the GUI window for visual interaction.
2. Run Python scripts or the command-line interface to perform data uploads programmatically.

Launching the UI

• Ensure dependencies are installed.

• Either:

  • Open the file src/aind_data_transfer_lite/ui.py in VS Code and click "Run" in the upper right-hand corner.

  • Or run the following in the terminal:

    python -m aind_data_transfer_lite.ui
    

• You should see a window titled "AIND Data Transfer Lite" appear.

Logging and Output

During an upload job, high-level progress and status messages are displayed in the Output panel of the UI. For full, detailed logs (including validation steps and upload diagnostics), refer to the terminal where the application was launched.

Example Python Script

from pathlib import Path
import os
from aind_data_transfer_lite.models import JobSettings
from aind_data_transfer_lite.upload_data import UploadDataJob

# Assuming running from same directory as this README file
cwd = os.getcwd()
behavior_path = Path(cwd) / "tests" / "resources" / "behavior_data"
ecephys_path = Path(cwd) / "tests" / "resources" / "ecephys_data"
metadata_path = Path(cwd) / "tests" / "resources" / "metadata_dir"

modality_directories = {
  "behavior": behavior_path,
  "ecephys": ecephys_path
}

metadata_directory = metadata_path

job_settings = JobSettings(
  dry_run=True,
  modality_directories=modality_directories,
  metadata_directory=metadata_directory,
  s3_bucket="aind-open-data-dev"
)

job = UploadDataJob(job_settings=job_settings)
job.run_job()

Example Command Line (Linux and MacOs)

python -m aind_data_transfer_lite.upload_data \
--metadata_directory "./tests/resources/metadata_dir" \
--modality_directories '{"behavior": "./tests/resources/behavior_data", "ecephys": "./tests/resources/ecephys_data"}' \
--dry_run "True"

Example Command Line (PowerShell)

python -m aind_data_transfer_lite.upload_data `
--metadata_directory "./tests/resources/metadata_dir" `
--modality_directories '{\"behavior\": \"./tests/resources/behavior_data\", \"ecephys\": \"./tests/resources/ecephys_data\"}' `
--dry_run "True"

Contributing

For code development, clone the repo and install as

pip install -e ".[dev]"

Linters and testing

There are several libraries used to run linters, check documentation, and run tests.

• Please test your changes using the coverage library, which will run the tests and log a coverage report:

coverage run -m unittest discover && coverage report

• Use interrogate to check that modules, methods, etc. have been documented thoroughly:

interrogate .

• Use flake8 to check that code is up to standards (no unused imports, etc.):

flake8 .

• Use black to automatically format the code into PEP standards:

black .

• Use isort to automatically sort import statements:

isort .

Pull requests

For internal members, please create a branch. For external members, please fork the repository and open a pull request from the fork. We'll primarily use Angular style for commit messages. Roughly, they should follow the pattern:

<type>(<scope>): <short summary>

where scope (optional) describes the packages affected by the code changes and type (mandatory) is one of:

• build: Changes that affect build tools or external dependencies (example scopes: pyproject.toml, setup.py)
• ci: Changes to our CI configuration files and scripts (examples: .github/workflows/ci.yml)
• docs: Documentation only changes
• feat: A new feature
• fix: A bugfix
• perf: A code change that improves performance
• refactor: A code change that neither fixes a bug nor adds a feature
• test: Adding missing tests or correcting existing tests

Semantic Release

The table below, from semantic release, shows which commit message gets you which release type when semantic-release runs (using the default configuration):

Commit message	Release type
fix(pencil): stop graphite breaking when too much pressure applied	Patch Fix Release, Default release
feat(pencil): add 'graphiteWidth' option	Minor Feature Release
perf(pencil): remove graphiteWidth option BREAKING CHANGE: The graphiteWidth option has been removed. The default graphite width of 10mm is always used for performance reasons.	Major Breaking Release (Note that the BREAKING CHANGE: token must be in the footer of the commit)
