RPC API example with the LEMON dataset#

This example illustrates the use of sovabids on the LEMON dataset using the RPC API.

Warning

To run this example, you need to install sovabids in ‘advanced-usage’ mode ( see here ).

Sovabids uses an action-oriented API. Here we will illustrate each of the available functionalities.

Imports#

First we import some functions we will need:

import os # For path manipulation
import shutil # File manipulation
from mne_bids import print_dir_tree # To show the input/output directories structures inside this example
from sovabids.datasets import lemon_prepare # Download the dataset
from sovabids.settings import REPO_PATH
from sovabids.sovarpc import app as sovapp # The RPC API application
import sovabids.sovarpc as sovarpc
from fastapi.testclient import TestClient # This will be for simulating ourselves as a client of the RPC API
import json # for making json-based requests
import copy # just to make deep copies of variables

Getting and preparing the dataset#

We have to download and decompress the dataset. We also need to fix a filename inconsistency (without this correction the file won’t be able to be opened in mne). Luckily all of that is encapsulated in the lemon_prepare function since these issues are not properly of sovabids.

By default the files are saved in the ‘_data’ directory of the sovabids project.

LEMON PREPARE DONE!

Setting up the paths#

Now we will set up four paths. Because this example is intended to run relative to the repository directory we use relative path but for real use-cases it is easier to just input the absolute-path. We will print these paths for more clarity.

source_path = os.path.abspath(os.path.join(REPO_PATH,'_data','lemon')) # For the input data we will convert
bids_path= os.path.abspath(os.path.join(REPO_PATH,'_data','lemon_bids_rpc')) # The output directory that will have the converted data
rules_path = os.path.abspath(os.path.join(REPO_PATH,'examples','lemon_example_rules.yml')) # The rules file that setups the rule for conversion
mapping_path = os.path.abspath(os.path.join(bids_path,'code','sovabids','mappings.yml')) # The mapping file that will hold the results of applying the rules to each file

print('source_path:',source_path.replace(REPO_PATH,''))
print('bids_path:', bids_path.replace(REPO_PATH,''))
print('rules_path:',rules_path.replace(REPO_PATH,''))
print('mapping_path:',mapping_path.replace(REPO_PATH,''))
source_path: /_data/lemon
bids_path: /_data/lemon_bids_rpc
rules_path: /examples/lemon_example_rules.yml
mapping_path: /_data/lemon_bids_rpc/code/sovabids/mappings.yml

Cleaning the output directory#

We will clean the output path as a safety measure from previous conversions.

try:
    shutil.rmtree(bids_path)
except:
    pass

The input directory#

For clarity purposes we will print here the directory we are trying to convert to BIDS.

print_dir_tree(source_path)

RPC API#

Simulating ourselves as clients#

We will use the TestClient class to send requests to the API (the sovapp variable)

client = TestClient(sovapp)

The general request#

We will define a function to make a request to the API given the name of the method and its parameters as a dictionary

def make_request(method,params):
    print('Method:',method)
    print('');print('');
    print('Parameters:')
    print(json.dumps(params, indent=4))
    print('');print('');
    # We create the complete request
    request= {
    "jsonrpc": "2.0",
    "id": 0,
    "method": method,
    "params": params}
    print('Request:')
    print(json.dumps(request, indent=4))
    print('');print('');
   # json dumps is important to avoid parsing errors in the API request
    request = json.dumps(request)

    # Send the request
    request_url = "/api/sovabids/" +method
    print('Request URL:')
    print(request_url)
    print('');print('');
    response = client.post(request_url,data=request ) # POST request as common in RPC-based APIs

    # Get the answer
    result = json.loads(response.content.decode())['result']
    print('Answer:')
    print(json.dumps(result, indent=4))
    print('');print('');
    return result

load_rules#

For loading a yaml rules file. Lets see the docstring of this method

print(sovarpc.load_rules.__doc__)
Load rules from a path.

    Parameters
    ----------

    rules_path : str
        The path to the rules file.

    Returns
    -------

    dict
        The rules dictionary.

    Notes
    -----
    A wrapper of around rules.load_rules function.

    See docstring of :py:func:`load_rules() <rules.load_rules>` in :py:mod:`rules`

Lets define the request

method = 'load_rules' # Just a variable for the method name

params = {                  # Parameters of the method
"rules_path": rules_path
    }

And proceed with it

result = make_request(method,params)

rules = copy.deepcopy(result)
Method: load_rules


Parameters:
{
    "rules_path": "/home/docs/checkouts/readthedocs.org/user_builds/sovabids/checkouts/latest/examples/lemon_example_rules.yml"
}

save_rules#

We can for example use it as a way to save a backup of the already-existing rules file. Lets see the docstring of this method

print(sovarpc.save_rules.__doc__)
Save rules as a yaml file to a path.

    Parameters
    ----------
    rules: dict
        The rules dictionary to save
    path : str
        The full-path (including filename) where to save the rules as yaml.

    Returns
    -------

    None

    Notes
    -----

    A wrapper of around files._write_yaml function.

    See docstring of :py:func:`_write_yaml() <files._write_yaml>` in :py:mod:`files`

Lets define the request

method = "save_rules" # Just a variable for the method name

params = {                  # Parameters of the method
    "rules": rules,
    "path": mapping_path.replace('mappings','rules')+'.bkp' # We will do it as if we were saving a backup of the rules
                              # Since the rules file already exists
    }

And proceed with it

result = make_request(method,params)
Method: save_rules

get_files#

Useful for getting the files on a directory. Lets see the docstring of this method

print(sovarpc.get_files.__doc__)
Recursively scan the directory for valid files, returning a list with the full-paths to each.

    The valid files are given by the 'non-bids.eeg_extension' rule. See the "Rules File Schema".

    Parameters
    ----------

    path : str
        The path we want to obtain the files from.
    rules : dict
        The rules dictionary.

    Returns
    -------

    list[str]:
        A list containing the path to each valid file in the source_path.


    Notes
    -----

    A wrapper of around rules.get_files function.

    See docstring of :py:func:`get_files() <rules.get_files>` in :py:mod:`rules`

Note

get_files uses the rules because of the non-bids.eeg_extension configuration.

Lets define the request

method = "get_files" # Just a variable for the method name

params = {                  # Parameters of the method
            "rules": rules,
            "path": source_path
    }

And proceed with it

result = make_request(method,params)

filelist = copy.deepcopy(result)
Method: get_files

        "entities": {
            "task": "resting"

apply_rules_to_single_file#

We can use this to get a mapping for a single mapping and for previewing the bids files that would be written. Lets see the docstring of this method

print(sovarpc.apply_rules_to_single_file.__doc__)
Apply rules to a single file.

    Parameters
    ----------

    file : str
        Path to the file.
    rules : dict
        The rules dictionary.
    bids_path : str
        Path to the bids directory
    write : bool, optional
        Whether to write the converted files to disk or not.
    preview : bool, optional
        Whether to return a dictionary with a "preview" of the conversion.
        This dict will have the same schema as the "Mapping File Schema" but may have flat versions of its fields.
        *UNDER CONSTRUCTION*

    Returns
    -------

    dict:
        {
        mapping : dict
            The mapping obtained from applying the rules to the given file
        preview : bool|dict
            If preview = False, then False. If True, then the preview dictionary.
        }

apply_rules#

We can use this to get the mappings for all the files in a list of them. Lets see the docstring of this method

print(sovarpc.apply_rules.__doc__)
Apply rules to a set of files.

    Parameters
    ----------

    file_list : list of str
        List of str with the paths of the files we want to convert (ie the output of get_files).
    bids_path : str
        The path we want the converted files in.
    rules : dict
        A dictionary with the rules.
    mapping_path : str, optional
        The fullpath where we want to write the mappings file.
        If '', then bids_path/code/sovabids/mappings.yml will be used.

    Returns
    -------

    dict :
        A dictionary following: {
                                    'General': rules given,
                                    'Individual':list of mapping dictionaries for each file
                                }


    Notes
    -----
    A wrapper of around rules.apply_rules function.
    See docstring of :py:func:`apply_rules() <rules.apply_rules>` in :py:mod:`rules`

Lets define the request

method = "apply_rules" # Just a variable for the method name

params = {                  # Parameters of the method
        "file_list": filelist,
        "bids_path": bids_path,
        "rules": rules,
        "mapping_path":mapping_path
    }

And proceed with it

result = make_request(method,params)

file_mappings=copy.deepcopy(result)
Method: apply_rules

save_mappings#

We can use this to save a backup of the mappings. Lets see the docstring of this method

print(sovarpc.save_mappings.__doc__)
Save mappings as a yaml file to a path.

    Parameters
    ----------

    path : str
        The full-path (including filename) where to save the mappings as yaml.
    general: dict
        The general rules dictionary.
    individual: list of dict
        A list containing the mapping dictionary of each file.

    Returns
    -------

    None

    Notes
    -----

    A wrapper of around files._write_yaml function.

    See docstring of :py:func:`_write_yaml() <files._write_yaml>` in :py:mod:`files`

Lets define the request

method = "save_mappings" # Just a variable for the method name

params = {                  # Parameters of the method
    "general": file_mappings['General'],
    "individual":file_mappings['Individual'],
    "path": mapping_path+'.bkp'
    }

And proceed with it

result = make_request(method,params)
Method: save_mappings

The ideal GUI for the designed API#

Here is the GUI schematic we had in mind when we designed the API

Ideal GUI
