Python · sddb client

ds = Catalog().dataset("L57muCKfQwcx1PyN0000")

Python · lamindb

Needs pip install lamindb and network access to the Lamin database, which is limited during the alpha. If it fails, use the Client tab.

import lamindb as ln

db = ln.DB("scverse/spatialdata-db")
artifact = db.Artifact.get("L57muCKfQwcx1PyN")   # stem uid: Lamin resolves it to the latest version

sdata = artifact.load()   # cache, then load into memory
group = artifact.open()   # stream without downloading
path  = artifact.cache()  # sync into the local cache, returns the path
Shell
# sddb client: download the .zarr into data/
sddb-cli download L57muCKfQwcx1PyN0000 --dest data/

# or lamin: cache the dataset and print its local path
lamin load https://lamin.ai/scverse/spatialdata-db/artifact/L57muCKfQwcx1PyN

# or connect once, then load by uid
lamin connect scverse/spatialdata-db
lamin load artifact --uid L57muCKfQwcx1PyN
