Tiny Jupyter Wrapper for neuroglancer viewer

jupyter-neuroglancer

Simple Jupyter (and jupyter-server-proxy) integration with neuroglancer.

Pops up a neuroglancer viewer in a split pane in JupyterLab (via jupyterlab-sidecar) so you can more easily see real-time live visualizations driven by your python code.

When running on a remote JupyterHub, the viewer is automatically (and securely) proxied through jupyter-server-proxy so users get the exact same experience on theier local machine as well as a JupyterHub.

Installation

jupyter-neuroglancer is available on PyPI.

pip install jupyter-neuroglancer

Usage

jupyter_neuroglancer provides a SidecarViewer class that accepts a regular neuroglancer Viewer object. You don't have to modify your neuroglancer code in any way!

import neuroglancer
from jupyter_neuroglancer import SidecarViewer

# Create a neuroglancer Viewer instance. This controls the visualization
viewer = neuroglancer.Viewer()

# Create a SidecarViewer that can show / hide the sidecar panel
scv = SidecarViewer(viewer)

# Show the panel
scv.show()

# Hide the panel
scv.hide()
