N5

A (mostly pure) rust implementation of the N5 "Not HDF5" n-dimensional tensor file system storage format created by the Saalfeld lab at Janelia Research Campus.

Compatible with Java N5 Version 2.0.2.

Differences from Java N5

• Dataset paths are relative. The root path in a dataset is "", not "/".
• Dataset paths are more strict. Calling methods with paths outside the dataset, e.g., "..", will return a Result::Err.

Major TODOs

• No remove for datasets/groups
• Easy import prelude
• Docs
• Mixture of T parameter as scalar type versus Vec<T>
• Kludge Foo type
• Generally, direct translation from Java is unidiomatic and a mess of boxes
