Receive anndata as a MatrixFormat #35

Open brianraymor opened 6 years ago

Use Case: Provide Multiple File Formats

When evaluating what file formats people may need, it may be important to provide file formats based on de facto standards given commonly used computational biology tools. In this scenario the user may be able to select what type of files they receive which may not be optimized for performance but are optimized for their workflows.

Acceptance Criteria

[ ] Request "anndata" as the matrix format
[ ] zarr is converted to anndata
[ ] Receive a matrix in the anndata format
[ ] Functional test to validate conversion
