A napari plugin for file watching
Project description
File watcher plugin for napari (napari-file-watcher)
This plugin contains two widgets: file watcher and script editor.
Usage: file watcher
The file watcher monitors a folder and displays its images (tiff, ome-zarr or hdf5) as napari layers, watch the following video for a demo:
Instructions:
- Select the folder you want to monitor by pressing "Browse".
- Select the extension of the files: "zarr", "hdf5" or "tiff".
- Click "Watch and run" to display the current items & the newly arrived as napari layers.
- If you click in one of the files of the list, the metadata will show (for hdf5 and zarr)
Usage: scripting editor
The script editor is for developing scripts and saving them in the filesystem. We have used this widget in the context of developing scripts for microscopy control software that implements another file watcher.
Instructions:
- Select the folder where you want to save your scripts in "Browse".
- Type the name of the script in the edit box below.
- Click "Add" for saving it into the folder after typing, or "Open" to display an existing file.
