[ome-devel] CLI import: create project and dataset

Hi Yanling,

Yes the --sudo flag was also part of the 5.0.2 release and definitely applies to the import.
So you should be able to call the following to perform a import-as operation via CLI:

$ bin/omero import --sudo root -d 'Dataset:51' -s localhost -u user /path_to_file

Note that this functionality is currently restricted to admins although we plan to extend
it to group owners in the future.

Hello Sebastien,

Thanks for your message. I have performed OMERO upgrade to 5.0.2. The bin/omero obj command worked as described. Great!

I can see the obj command has the option to create projects for other users with --sudo flag. Does the flag apply to bin/omero import too? In other words, can I import data as administrator for other users without typing each user's password using bin/omero import?

I have tried to do following command but failed, of course dataset #51 does not belong to the root user.

bin/omero import -d 'Dataset:51' -s localhost -u root /path_to_file

Thanks,

Hi Yanling,

as part of the last 5.0.2 release of OMERO, the CLI now supports a new `obj` command [1].
This command allows the creation of containers amongst other things. As an example, the
creation of projects and datasets should now be achievable via

$ bin/omero obj new Project name=project
$ bin/omero obj new Dataset name=dataset

As an aside, we have started working on a script to setup our training material which combines
`bin/omero obj` and `bin/omero import` and may be informative:
https://github.com/openmicroscopy/openmicroscopy/pull/2561/files
Note our next step is the extension of the CLI documentation [2] to add some description on this
command and its usage.

Best,
Sebastien

Hello,

Is it possible to create new project and dataset in CLI import?

For example, it would be great if I can use following command to import a set of images to a user while creating new project and dataset on the fly.

bin/omero -s localhost -u user import path_to_file -project project_name_or_id -dataset dataset_name_or_id

The reason I am asking is because we have 10TB existing images to be imported into OMERO. Create new project and dataset and import images into them would save us a lot of time.

Thanks,
Yanling
