Various tools for creating and manipulating [Zarr v3](https://zarr.dev) data with the [zarrs](https://github.com/LDeakin/zarrs) rust crate.

A changelog can be found [here](https://github.com/LDeakin/zarrs_tools/blob/main/CHANGELOG.md).

## Tools
All tools support input and output [Zarr V3](https://zarr-specs.readthedocs.io/en/latest/v3/core/v3.0.html) data.
Some tools additionally support input of a [V3 compatible subset](https://docs.rs/zarrs/latest/zarrs/#arrays-zarr-v3-and-zarr-v2) of [Zarr V2](https://zarr-specs.readthedocs.io/en/latest/v2/v2.0.html).

- [zarrs_reencode]https://github.com/LDeakin/zarrs_tools/blob/main/docs/zarrs_reencode.md: reencode an array. Manipulate the chunk size, shard size, codecs, fill value, chunk key encoding separator, and attributes.
- [zarrs_filter]https://github.com/LDeakin/zarrs_tools/blob/main/docs/zarrs_filter.md (feature `filter`): apply simple image filters (transformations) to an array.
- [zarrs_ome]https://github.com/LDeakin/zarrs_tools/blob/main/docs/zarrs_ome.md (feature `ome`): convert an array to an [OME-Zarr]https://ngff.openmicroscopy.org/latest/index.html multi-scale image.
  - Supports OME-Zarr `0.5-dev` (as Zarr V3) and `0.5-dev1`. The first is recognised by [Neuroglancer]https://github.com/google/neuroglancer.
- zarrs_info (feature `info`): return metadata related info or the range/histogram of an array.
- [zarrs_binary2zarr]https://github.com/LDeakin/zarrs_tools/blob/main/docs/zarrs_binary2zarr.md (feature `binary2zarr`): create an array from piped binary data.
- [zarrs_ncvar2zarr]https://github.com/LDeakin/zarrs_tools/blob/main/docs/zarrs_ncvar2zarr.md (feature `ncvar2zarr`): convert a netCDF variable to an array.

See [docs/](https://github.com/LDeakin/zarrs_tools/blob/main/docs/) for tool documentation.

## `zarrs` Benchmarking
- zarrs_reencode: suitable for round trip benchmarking.
- zarrs_benchmark_read_sync (feature `benchmark`): benchmark the zarrs sync API.
- zarrs_benchmark_read_async (feature `benchmark`): benchmark the zarrs async API.

See [docs/benchmarks.md](https://github.com/LDeakin/zarrs_tools/blob/main/docs/benchmarks.md) for some benchmark measurements.

## Install

### From [crates.io]https://crates.io/crates/zarrs_tools
```bash
cargo install --all-features zarrs_tools
```

### From [source]https://github.com/LDeakin/zarrs_tools
```bash
cargo install --all-features --path .
# cargo install --all-features --git https://github.com/LDeakin/zarrs_tools
```

### Enabling SIMD intrinsics
Encoding and decoding performance may be improved with `avx2`/`sse2` enabled (if supported).

This can be enabled by compiling with either of:
 - `RUSTFLAGS="-C target-cpu=native"`
 - `RUSTFLAGS="-C target-feature=+avx2,+sse2"`

### Enabling non-default `zarrs` codecs
Non-default `zarrs` codecs (see [`zarrs` crate features](https://docs.rs/zarrs/latest/zarrs/#crate-features)) can be enabled by passing them as feature flags.
For example:
```bash
cargo install zarrs_tools --all-features --features zarrs/bitround,zarrs/zfp,zarrs/bz2,zarrs/pcodec
```
