OME-Zarr converter and data transfer were developed within Euro-BioImaging but not available in the ToolShed because of missing dependencies in conda-forge. Let's take this discussion to the BioHackathon :)
Isn't this what is needed for the converters? https://anaconda.org/bioconda/bftools
The converter in the bftools
package, unfortunately, cannot convert to OME-Zarr.
Currently, the most commonly-used tool to convert various proprietary image formats to OME-Zarr is bioformats2raw
:
https://anaconda.org/ome/bioformats2raw https://github.com/glencoesoftware/bioformats2raw
Bioformats2raw
is, however, not registered on conda-forge or bioconda. Previously, we had a discussion on moving it to conda-forge and there was some progress, but then it has been on stall:
https://github.com/ome/conda-bioformats2raw/issues/14
Perhaps we should resume this effort now?
