labshare/polus-subset-data-plugin repository overview

⁠Subset Data

This WIPP uses a filename pattern to select a subset of data from an image collection and stores the subset as a new image collection. The filename pattern can be a regular expression⁠ and can include elements of a filename pattern described below.

For more information on WIPP, visit the official WIPP page⁠.

⁠Input Filename Pattern

This plugin uses filename patterns⁠ similar to that of what MIST uses. In particular, defining a filename variable is surrounded by {}, and the variable name and number of spaces dedicated to the variable are denoted by repeated characters for the variable. For example, if all filenames follow the structure filename_TTT.ome.tif, where TTT indicates the timepoint the image was captured at, then the filename pattern would be filename_{ttt}.ome.tif.

In addition to the position variables (both x and y, or p), the only other variables that can be used are z, c, and t.
