.csv files

Postby LeroyAlex » Thu Oct 30, 2014 3:57 pm

Hi,

We re checking the lasers/lamp power of our microscope on a daily basis, and although we can upload them on the omero server as attachments, i was wondering if omero would be able to render the graph we get from our thorlabs power-meter. I checked the bio-format library and the .csv files that we get are not in.
Do you think someday you ll implement this kind of file in bio-format?

Best,
Alex.

Hi,

Since CSV isn't an image format, it's not something that Bio-Formats will try to handle.

If you want to store tabular data on OMERO, available via the OMERO API, we have an HDF-backed OMERO.tables functionality https://www.openmicroscopy.org/site/sup ... ables.html.

However, this might be a bit of an overkill.
If you wanted to extend OMERO to display plots of CSV data, the easiest route would be to extend the web to plot CSV data provided by the server. I recently noticed that http://d3js.org/ supports CSV 'out of the box':
https://github.com/mbostock/d3/wiki/CSV
This kind of functionality might be implemented someday, but we have no immediate plans to work on it.

Apologies I can't be more helpful.
