Sensospot Data Parser

Parsing the numerical output from Sensovation Sensospot image analysis.

Example:

    import sensospot_data

    # read the raw data of a folder
    raw_data = sensospot_data.parse_folder(<path to results directory>)

    sorted(raw_data.columns) == [
        'Analysis.Name', 
        'Bkg.Area', 'Bkg.Mean', 'Bkg.Median', 'Bkg.StdDev', 'Bkg.Sum', 
        'Exposure.Id', 
        'Parameters.Channel', 'Parameters.Time', 
        'Pos.Id', 'Pos.Nom.X', 'Pos.Nom.Y', 'Pos.X', 'Pos.Y', 
        'Spot.Area', 'Spot.Diameter', 'Spot.Found', 'Spot.Mean', 'Spot.Median', 
        'Spot.Saturation', 'Spot.StdDev', 'Spot.Sum', 
        'Well.Column', 'Well.Name', 'Well.Row'
    ]

Constants

There is a columns module available, providing constans that define the column names.

    import sensospot_data

    sensospot_data.columns.ANALYSIS_NAME == "Analysis.Name"

Avaliable functions:

from .parser import parse_file, parse_folder # noqa: F401

• parse_folder(path_to_folder) Searches the folder for parsable Sensospot .csv files, parses them into one big pandas data frame and will add additional meta data from parameters folder, if it is present.
• parse_file(path_to_csv_file) Parses a Sensospot csv file into a pandas data frame and will add some additional meta data from the file name. Is internally also used by parse_folder()

CLI

For the (propably) most important function, there is even a cli command

Usage: sensospot_parse [OPTIONS] SOURCE

Arguments:
