napari-virtual-reader v0.0.2

Status: Local validation passed; GitHub Actions and PyPI publication pending.
Release preparation date: 2026-11-06.

Highlights

  • Patch release with README improvements and simpler reader file filters; dependencies are unchanged.
  • Added screenshots illustrating the plugin, image display, and metadata inspector.

What Changed

  • Added three README screenshots and their source image files.
  • Used absolute image URLs so screenshots can render on both GitHub and PyPI.
  • Simplified the README's CZI scene-stacking description.
  • Replaced version-specific release instructions with permanent links and a generic tag format.
  • Replaced bracketed filename patterns in the napari manifest with simple extension filters such as *.czi and *.nii.gz.
  • Updated the manifest regression test to require exactly the supported simple extension patterns.
  • Bumped the package version from 0.0.1 to 0.0.2.

Validation

  • Full test suite, including plugin discovery and manifest filename patterns: 32 passed.
  • Ruff checks for source and tests: passed.
  • Source distribution and wheel builds for 0.0.2: passed.
  • Strict Twine metadata and README validation for both distributions: passed.
  • Built wheel version, all 19 simple extension patterns, and exact README description: verified.
  • All three README screenshot URLs map to existing source image files.

Publication

  • Release tag: v0.0.2.
  • Release commit: The commit referenced by the annotated v0.0.2 tag.
  • GitHub release: v0.0.2.
  • PyPI version: 0.0.2.

These URLs are publication targets, not confirmation of successful publication.

Known Limitations

The package remains experimental Alpha software. Existing limitations are unchanged.
Original source files must remain available and unchanged while layers or VZIP archives reference them.

napari-virtual-reader v0.0.1

Status: Release prepared; GitHub Actions and PyPI publication pending.
Release preparation date: 2026-11-05.

Highlights

  • Initial experimental Alpha release of napari-virtual-reader.
  • Open supported images as lazy, reference-backed OME-Zarr without pixel conversion.
  • Use napari's File/Open reader or the asynchronous plugin widget.

What Changed

  • Registered the reader and widget through the npe2 napari.manifest entry point.
  • Added per-channel layers with OME axes, transforms, pyramids, colors, and display windows.
  • Added compatible CZI scene stacking while retaining original scene metadata.
  • Added atomic VZIP reference-archive saving with overwrite confirmation, without copying pixels.
  • Added a shared, read-only inspector for Zarr structure and selected-layer metadata.
  • Renamed napari-refkv to napari-virtual-reader, including its Python module and repository.
  • Added automated tests and a test-gated, tag-triggered PyPI publishing workflow.

Validation

  • Local Windows test suite: 32 tests passed.
  • Ruff lint checks passed.
  • Source distribution and wheel built successfully with Hatchling.
  • Strict Twine metadata and README checks passed for both distributions.
  • npe2 discovered a non-editable wheel installation and resolved its reader and widget commands.
  • Public PyPI has compatible releases for the declared runtime dependencies.
  • GitHub Actions tests Windows, Linux, and macOS with Python 3.12-3.14; release-run results are pending.

Publication

  • Release tag: v0.0.1 (pending creation).
  • Release commit: The commit referenced by the annotated v0.0.1 tag.
  • GitHub release: v0.0.1.
  • PyPI version: 0.0.1.

The URLs above are publication targets, not confirmation of successful publication.

Known Limitations

  • Experimental Alpha software: APIs and behavior may change without notice.
  • Python 3.12 or newer, napari 0.10.0 or newer, and a working Qt backend are required.
  • Original sources must remain available and unchanged while layers or VZIP archives reference them.
  • Format support depends on refkv and the source's metadata and codecs, not just its extension.
  • Only local images and VZIP archives with supported OME metadata are accepted.
  • Remote inputs and non-image datasets are outside this release's scope.
  • Incompatible CZI scenes remain separate rather than being cropped or resampled.
  • Missing display windows use dtype bounds; floating-point images default to 0-1 contrast.
  • Contrast may need manual adjustment.
  • Validate results independently before relying on them for analysis.
