napari-metadata

License BSD-3 PyPI Python Version tests codecov napari hub

napari-metadata is a napari plugin that visually exposes the functionality of napari's handling of layer metadata by directly connecting with the public API of napari layers.

Installation

You can install napari-metadata from PyPI:

pip install napari-metadata

or from conda-forge:

conda install napari-metadata

Usage

This plugin adds a dock widget to napari that allows you to view and edit metadata for each layer in your napari viewer. The widget is intended to be used in the typical vertical widget layout and additionally is designed to work great in a horizontal layout.

File Metadata

The File Metadata section displays metadata related to the source of the layer, such as name, shape, dtype, and file size. All information except layer name is read-only.

Axes Metadata

The Axes Metadata section allows you to view and edit metadata related to the axes of the layer, such as axis labels, transforms, scales, and units. You can modify these properties directly in the widget, and the changes will be reflected in the layer, and visa versa.

Axes Inheritance

The Axes Inheritance widget can be used to propagate axes metadata from one layer to other layers. Select a template layer from the dropdown, and apply any axes metadata with checked boolean boxes to the currently active layer and any linked layers.
