lazybids-ui 0.0.2

A web-based graphical user interface server for viewing (and manipulating) BIDS datasets, build on lazybids.

LazyBIDS-UI

LazyBIDS-UI is a web-based user interface for interacting with BIDS datasets. It provides a visual and intuitive way to explore, manage, and analyze BIDS-compliant neuroimaging data, leveraging the power of LazyBIDS as its core io-library.

Furthermore, LazyBIDS-UI's REST-API provides an easy way to interact with datasets on the server, and download only the parts you need, when you need them. The LazyBIDS library showcases how a remote dataset can be accessed in the same way you would access a local dataset.

Finally, LazyBIDS-UI is almost fully written in Python, and aims to keep things simple. Making it easy to modify LazyBIDS-UI to your specific needs. The combination of jinja html templates, with htmx for interactions keeps things simple, responsive and extensability.
Because all assets are availble both in html and throught the REST-API, extensions can even be implemented in frontend frameworks like Angular, React or Vue. Simply:

• Create an htmx enabled div where you'd like your plugin to appear
• Link to your frontend with the right url/parameters
• Query the API for the data you need
• Voilà.

Install the latest version:

pip install lazybids-ui

REST API

LazyBIDS-UI provides a comprehensive REST API for programmatic interaction with your BIDS datasets. For full API documentation, please refer to our API Specifications.

Example usage:

import requests

# Get all datasets
response = requests.get('http://localhost:8000/api/datasets')
datasets = response.json()

# Get details of a specific dataset
dataset_id = datasets[0]['id']
response = requests.get(f'http://localhost:8000/api/dataset/{dataset_id}')
dataset_details = response.json()
