AcqStore Server

AcqStore Server is a desktop app. When you run it, you get a main window and a local server. The main window lets you start, stop, and monitor the server. The server opens scientific image files with AcqStore and serves metadata and image planes to thin clients.

One thin client ships with the app: the built-in demo at /demo/v2/. You can also build your own HTML or JavaScript page that talks to the same API v2.

This site covers:

  • Using the packaged desktop app and its main window
  • The built-in demo
  • Building your own HTML/JavaScript client against API v2
  • Controlling the server from another Python desktop app
