  • Bundle data of different groups/projects/datasets together
  • Fast download of large data
  • Enable external collaborators to easily access selected data via URL

OpenLink of publication data

Functionality:

OMERO.openlink is composed of two components:

Create_OpenLink.py (generation) A server side script that generates soft links to your data and creates a curl file for batch download of this data. You can share only your own data or the data of a non-private group if you are the owner of this group (the owner of the data will be informed by mail).

NOTE: If you prefer another download manager, you can change the generated commands in the Python script.

omero-openlink (visualization) An OMERO.web plugin that lists the links to generated areas of softlinks via the nginx server. Provides the corresponding curl command to start the download in a shell. With the plugin the areas can also be deleted via OMERO.web.

Requirements:

  • OMERO.web 5.6.0 or newer
  • nginx server configurations
