You can install the package via conda:
conda install -c conda-forge cluster_tools
To set-up a develoment environment with all necessary dependencies, you can use the environment.yml file:
conda env create -f environment.yml
and then install the package in development mode via
pip install -e . --no-deps

This repository uses luigi for workflow management. We support different cluster schedulers, so far
The scheduler can be selected by the keyword target.
Inter-process communication is achieved through files which are stored in a temporary folder and
most workflows use n5 storage. You can use z5 to convert files to it with python.
Simplified, running a workflow from this repository looks like this:
import json
import luigi
from cluster_tools import SimpleWorkflow # this is just a mock class, not actually part of this repository
# folder for temporary scripts and files
tmp_folder = 'tmp_wf'
# directory for configurations for workflow sub-tasks stored as json
config_dir = 'configs'
# get the default configurations for all sub-tasks
default_configs = SimpleWorkflow.get_config()
# global configuration for shebang to proper python interpreter with all dependencies,
# group name and block-shape
global_config = default_configs['global']
shebang = '#! /path/to/bin/python'
global_config.update({'shebang': shebang, 'groupname': 'mygroup'})
with open('configs/global.config', 'w') as f:
json.dump(global_config, f)
# run the example workflow with `max_jobs` number of jobs
max_jobs = 100
task = SimpleWorkflow(tmp_folder=tmp_folder, config_dir=config_dir,
target='slurm', max_jobs=max_jobs,
input_path='/path/to/input.n5', input_key='data',
output_path='/path/to/output.n5', output_key='data')
luigi.build([task])For a list of the available segmentation worklfows, have a look at this. Unfortunately, there is no proper documentation yet. For more details, have a look at the examples, in particular this example. You can donwload the example data (also used for the tests) here.
