libsonata

C++ / Python reader for SONATA circuit files: SONATA guide

Installation

Installing from PyPI

pip install libsonata

Installing as a Python package, directly from GitHub

pip install git+https://github.com/BlueBrain/libsonata

Building the C++ library

git clone git@github.com:BlueBrain/libsonata.git --recursive
cd libsonata
mkdir build && cd build
cmake  -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release  -DEXTLIB_FROM_SUBMODULES=ON ..
make -j

Usage (Python)

Nodes

NodeStorage
>>> import libsonata

>>> nodes = libsonata.NodeStorage('path/to/H5/file')

# list populations
>>> nodes.population_names

# open population
>>> population = nodes.open_population(<name>)
NodePopulation
# total number of nodes in the population
>>> population.size

# attribute names
>>> population.attribute_names

# get attribute value for single node, say 42
>>> population.get_attribute('mtype', 42)

# ...or Selection of nodes (see below) => returns NumPy array with corresponding values
>>> selection = libsonata.Selection(values=[1, 5, 9, 42])  # nodes 1, 5, 9, 42
>>> mtypes = population.get_attribute('mtype', selection)
>>> list(zip(selection.flatten(), mtypes))
[(1, u'mtype_of_1'), (5, u'mtype_of_5'), (9, u'mtype_of_9'), (42, u'mtype_of_42')]
Selection

List of element IDs (either node_id, or edge_id) where adjacent IDs are grouped for the sake of efficient HDF5 file access. For instance, {1, 2, 3, 5} sequence becomes {[1, 4), [5, 6)}.

Selection can be instantiated from:
  • a sequence of scalar values (works for NumPy arrays as well)

  • a sequence of pairs (interpreted as ranges above, works for N x 2 NumPy arrays as well)

EdgePopulation connectivity queries (see below) return Selections as well.

>>> selection = libsonata.Selection([1, 2, 3, 5])
>>> selection.ranges
[(1, 4), (5, 6)]
>>> selection = libsonata.Selection([(1, 4), (5, 6)])
>>> selection.flatten()
[1, 2, 3, 5]
>>> selection.flat_size
4
>>> bool(selection)
True

Edges

EdgeStorage

Population handling for EdgeStorage is analogous to NodeStorage:

>>> edges = libsonata.EdgeStorage('path/to/H5/file')

# list populations
>>> edges.population_names

# open population
>>> population = edges.open_population(<name>)
EdgePopulation
# total number of edges in the population
>>> population.size

# attribute names
>>> population.attribute_names

# get attribute value for single edge, say 123
>>> population.get_attribute('delay', 123)

# ...or Selection of edges => returns NumPy array with corresponding values
>>> selection = libsonata.Selection([1, 5, 9])
>>> population.get_attribute('delay', selection) # returns delays for edges 1, 5, 9

…with additional methods for querying connectivity, where the results are selections that can be applied like above

# get source / target node ID for the 42nd edge:
>>> population.source_node(42)
>>> population.target_node(42)

# query connectivity (result is Selection object)
>>> selection_to_1 = population.afferent_edges(1)  # all edges with target node_id 1
>>> population.target_nodes(selection_to_1)  # since selection only contains edges
                                             # targeting node_id 1 the result will be a
                                             # numpy array of all 1's
>>> selection_from_2 = population.efferent_edges(2)  # all edges sourced from node_id 2
>>> selection = population.connecting_edges(2, 1)  # this selection is all edges from
                                                   # node_id 2 to node_id 1

# ...or their vectorized analogues
>>> selection = population.afferent_edges([1, 2, 3])
>>> selection = population.efferent_edges([1, 2, 3])
>>> selection = population.connecting_edges([1, 2, 3], [4, 5, 6])
