class
omsi.dataformat.file_reader_base.
file_reader_base
(basename, requires_slicing=True)¶ Bases:
object
Base-class used to define the basic interface that file-readers for a new format need to implement.
__init__ interface:
To avoid the need for custom code subclasses should be able to be constructed by providing just the basename parameter and optional requires_slicing parameter. If additional inputs are needed, then file conversion and management scripts may need to be modified to account for the custom requirements. Required Attributes:
Variables: - data_type – String indicating the data type to be used (e.g., uint16)
- shape – Tuple indicating the shape of the data
- mz – Numpy array with the m/z axis data. In the case of multi-data this is a list of numpy arrays, one per dataset.
- basename – The basename provided for opening the file.
Required Interface Functions:
close_file
: Close any opened filesis_valid_dataset
: Check whether a given dir/file is valid under the current formatspectrum_iter
: Generator function that iterates over all the spectra in the current data cube and yield the numpy array with the intensity and integer x, y position of the spectrum
Optional Interface Functions:
__getitem__
: Implement array slicing for files. Reuqired if the requires_slicing parametershould be supported.
supports_regions
: Specify whether the format supports multiple regions (default=False)supports_multidata
: Specify whether the format supports multiple datasets (default=False)supports_multiexperiment
: Specify whether the format supports multiple experiments (default=False)
Construct the base class and define required attributes.
Parameters: - basename – The name of the file or directory with the file to be opened by the reader
- requires_slicing – Boolean indicating whether the user requires array slicing via the __getitem__ function to work or not. This is an optimization, because many MSI data formats do not easily support arbitrary slicing of data but rather only iteration over spectra.

bruckerflex_file
Module¶
This module provides functionality for reading bruker flex mass spectrometry image files
Limitations:
- Currently the reader assumes a single global m/z axis for all spectra.
- The read of acqu files does not convert <..> entries to python values but leaves them as strings.
- __read_spotlist__ converts the regions to start with a 0 index. This is somewhat inconsistent in the spot list file. The spotname seems to number regions starting with 0 while the region list numbers them starting with 1.
- __read_spotlist__ computes the folder where the spots are located based on the filename of the spotlist. The question is whether this is always the case??? The advantage is that we do not rely on the regions.xml file which contains absolute paths which are in most cases invalid as the data has been copied between different machines in many cases and is stored in different locations on each of the machines.
- __read_spotlist__ currenly assumes that there is only one fid file per spot
- __read_spotlist__ currenlty only looks at where the acqu and fid file is located for the spot. Other files are currently ignored.
- __read_spotlist__ (and hence the reader at large) currently assumes that we have 2D images only.
- __read_spotlist__ currently generates maps for the image that assume that x and y pixel indices start at 0. Not all images may record data until the border, so that this strategy may add empty spectra rather than generating a new bounding box for the image.
- __read_spotlist__ assumes in the variable spotname_encoding a maximum of 24 characters in the spotname R01X080Y013. This should in general be more than sufficient as this allows for 7 characters for each R, X, Y entry, however, if this is not enough then this behaviour needs ot be changed.
- __getitem__ currently only works if we have read the full data into memory. An on-demand load should be supported as well.
- We can currently only selected either a single region or the full data but we cannot selected multiple regions at once. E.g. if a dataset contains 3 regions then we can either select all regions at once or region 1,2, or 3 but one cannot selected region 1+2, 1+3, or 2+3.

omsi.dataformat.bruckerflex_file.
bruckerflex_file
(basename, fid_encoding='int32', requires_slicing=True)¶ Bases:
omsi.dataformat.file_reader_base.file_reader_base_with_regions
Interface for reading a single bruker flex image file.
The reader supports standard array slicing for data read. I.e., to read a spectrum use [x,y,:] to read an ion image using [:,:,mz].
The reader supports multiple regions, i.e., reading of different independent regions that were imaged as part of the same dataset. Using the get_regions, get_number_of_regions, set_region_selection and get_region_selection the user can interact with the region settings. Using the set_region_selection the user can define whether the data of the complete image should be read (set_region(None), default) or whether data from a single region should be read. When a region is selected, then the reader acts as if the region were the complete dataset, i.e., the shape variable is addjusted to fit the selected region and the __get_item__ method (which is used to implement array-like slicing (e.g., [1,1,:])) behaves as if the selected region where the full data.
Open an img file for data reading.
Parameters: - basename (string) – Name of the textfile with the spotlist. Alternatively this may also be the folder with the spots.
- requires_slicing (bool) – Should the complete data be read into memory (this makes slicing easier). (default is True)
- fid_encoding (string) – String indicating in which binary format the intensity values (fid files) are stored. (default value is ‘int32’)
Variables: - self.basename – Name of the file with the spotlist
- self.pixel_dict –
dictionary with the pixel array metadata (see also s_read_spotlist(...)). Some of the main keys of the dictionary are, e.g. (see also s_read_spotlist(...)) :
- ‘spotfolder’ : String indicating the folder where all the spot-data is located
- ‘fid’ : 2D numpy masked array of strings indicating for (x,y) pixel the fid file with the intensity values.
- ‘acqu’ : 2D numpy masked array of strings indicating for each (x,y) pixel the acqu file with the metadata for that pixel.
- ‘regions’ : 2D numpy masked array of integers indicating for each pixels the index of the region it belongs to.
- ‘xpos’ : 2D numpy masked array of integers indicated for each pixel its x position.
- ‘ypos’ : 2D numpy masked array of integers indicated for each pixel its x position.
- ‘spotname’ : 2D masked numpy array of strings with the names of the spot corresponding to a pixel.
- self.data_type – the encoding used for intensity values
- self.shape – The 3D shape of the MSI data volume for the currently selected region.
- self.full_shape – Shape of the full 3D MSI dataset including all regions imaged.
- self.metadata – Dictionary with metadata from the acqu file
- self.mz – The 1D numpy array with the m/z axis information
- self.data – If requires_slicing is set to true then this 3D array includes the complete data of the MSI data cube. Missing data values (e.g., from regions not imaged during the aquistion processes) are completed with zero values.
- self.region_dicts – Dictionary with description of the imaging regions
Raises ValueError: In case that no valid data is found.
