mease-elabftw





A Python library for interacting with eLabFTW experiments:

Create NWB metadata from an eLabFTW experiment
Upload files (e.g. analysis result from HPC) to an eLabFTW experiment
List eLabFTW experiments from the command line

Setup
python -m pip install mease-elabftw

To authenticate requests to the eLabFTW server you also need to generate an API key in eLabFTW (User Panel -> API Keys -> GENERATE AN API KEY),
and then set the environment variable ELABFTW_TOKEN to this key, e.g.
export ELABFTW_TOKEN=abc123abc123abc123

Use in Python
Get nwb metadata from an elabftw experiment to use in mease-lab-to-nwb:
>>> import mease_elabftw
>>> mease_elabftw.list_experiments("Liam")
['163: test fake experiment without json metadata (Liam Keegan, 2021-10-07)', '156: test fake experiment with json metadata (Liam Keegan, 2021-10-01)']
>>> metadata = mease_elabftw.get_nwb_metadata(156)
>>> metadata["NWBFile"]["session_description"]
test fake experiment with json metadata
>>> metadata["NWBFile"]["identifier"]
