Raw

aeon_mecha

aeon_mecha_env_build_and_tests aeon_mecha_tests_code_coverage

Project Aeon's main repository for manipulating acquired data. Includes modules for loading raw data, performing quality control on raw data, processing raw data, and ingesting processed data into a DataJoint MySQL database.

Set-up Instructions

The various set-up tools mentioned below do some combination of python version, environment, package, and package dependency management. For basic information on the differences between these tools, see this blog post.

Remote set-up on SWC's HPC

Prereqs

  1. Ssh into the HPC and clone this repository to your home directory.
ssh <your_SWC_username>@ssh.swc.ucl.ac.uk
mkdir ~/ProjectAeon
cd ~/ProjectAeon
git clone https://github.com/SainsburyWellcomeCentre/aeon_mecha
cd aeon_mecha

Set-up

Ensure you stay in the ~/ProjectAeon/aeon_mecha directory for the rest of the set-up instructions, regardless of which set-up procedure you follow below.

Option 1: miniconda (python distribution) and conda (python version manager, environment manager, package manager, and package dependency manager)

  • Note: mamba, a faster alternative to conda, is now installed as a module on the HPC, so the above instructions can be followed using 'mamba' instead of 'conda' if you prefer.

Option 2: pip (python package manager) and venv (python environment manager)

Local set-up

Prereqs

All commands below should be run in a bash shell (Windows users can use the 'mingw64' terminal that is included when installing git).

  1. Clone this repository: create a 'ProjectAeon' directory in your home directory, clone this repository there, and cd into the cloned directory:
mkdir ~/ProjectAeon
cd ~/ProjectAeon
git clone https://github.com/SainsburyWellcomeCentre/aeon_mecha
cd aeon_mecha

Set-up

Ensure you stay in the ~/ProjectAeon/aeon_mecha directory for the rest of the set-up instructions, regardless of which set-up procedure you follow below.

Option 1: miniconda (python distribution) and conda (python version manager, environment manager, package manager, and package dependency manager)

  • Note: mambaforge and mamba can be used as faster, drop-in replacements for 'miniconda' and 'conda', respectively. You can set up the Aeon environment using them, following roughly the same instructions as above. See here for more info.

Option 2: pip (python package manager) and venv (python environment manager)
