Requirements

• JupyterLab >= 2.0

Install

Note: You will need NodeJS to install the extension.

pip install jupyterlab_h5web
jupyter lab build

Usage

Once the extension is installed, you can double-click on an HDF5 file or right-click -> View HDF5 contents to launch a tab.

This tab is composed of a sidebar, where you can explore the structure of the HDF5 file, and of a main area where the visualization of the selected entity takes place. This visualization is controlled by the upper-right button that can toggle between:

• Display: visualize datasets using Line, Heatmap or Matrix visualizations.
• Inspect: show the metadata and attributes of any entity
