npc-ephys 0.1.42

Tools for accessing and processing raw ephys data, compatible with data in the cloud.

npc_ephys

Tools for accessing and processing raw ephys data, compatible with data in the cloud.

Usage

conda create -n npc_ephys python>=3.9
conda activate npc_ephys
pip install npc_ephys

Windows

wavpack-numcodecs is used to read compressed ephys data from S3 (stored in Zarr format). On Windows, that requires C++ build tools to be installed: if pip install npc_ephys fails you'll likely need to download it from here.

Python

>>> import npc_ephys

# get device timing on sync clock using barcodes:
>>> recording_path = 's3://aind-ephys-data/ecephys_670248_2023-08-03_12-04-15/ecephys_clipped/Record Node 102/experiment1/recording1'
>>> sync_path = 's3://aind-ephys-data/ecephys_670248_2023-08-03_12-04-15/behavior/20230803T120415.h5'
>>> timing_data = next(npc_ephys.get_ephys_timing_on_sync(sync_path, recording_path))
>>> timing_data.device.name, timing_data.sampling_rate, timing_data.start_time

# get a dataclass that reads SpikeInterface sorted data from the cloud
# - from a path:

# - or from a subject ID + date + session-index-on-date (separators are optional):
>>> si = npc_ephys.get_spikeinterface_data('670248_2023-08-03_0')

>>> si

# various bits of data are available for use:
>>> si.version

>>> ''.join(si.probes)
'ABCEF'
>>> si.quality_metrics_df('probeA').columns
