CAVE is short for Connectome Annotation Versioning Engine. CAVE is a set of microservices that provide a framework for storing and versioning connectomics data and large sets of dynamic annotations, metadata, and segmentations. This repository supplies client-side code to easily interact with the microservices in CAVE.
A full description of the Connectome Annotation Versioning Engine can be found in this paper.
CAVEclient can be installed from PyPI:
pip install caveclientTo add optional dependencies (currently for interfacing with the segmentation, imagery, and some skeleton formats via cloud-volume), you can install with the following:
pip install caveclient[cv]Currently we are officially supporting and testing against Python 3.9, 3.10, 3.11 and 3.12.
You can find full documentation at caveconnectome.github.io/CAVEclient.
