# **B**io**F**ormats **I**nput/**O**utput utility (bfio 2.4.8)
[](https://bfio.readthedocs.io/en/latest/?badge=latest)

This tool is a simplified but powerful interface to
[Bio-Formats](https://www.openmicroscopy.org/bio-formats/)
using jpype for direct access to the library. This tool is designed with
scalable image analysis in mind, with a simple interface to treat any image
like a memory mapped array.
Docker containers with all necessary components are available (see
**Docker Containers** section).

## Installation
### Setting up Java
**Note:** `bfio` can be used without Java, but only the `python` and `zarr`
backends will be usable. This means only files in tiled OME Tiff or OME Zarr format can be
read/written.
In order to use the `bioformats` backend, it is necessary to first install the JDK and Maven.
The `bfio` package is generally tested with
[JDK 8](https://docs.oracle.com/javase/8/docs/technotes/guides/install/install_overview.html),
but JDK 11 and later also appear to work.
Here are some info on installing Maven on various OS ([Windows](https://phoenixnap.com/kb/install-maven-windows) | [Linux](https://www.digitalocean.com/community/tutorials/install-maven-linux-ubuntu) | [Mac](https://www.digitalocean.com/community/tutorials/install-maven-mac-os))
### Installing bfio
The `bfio` package and the core dependencies (numpy, tifffile, imagecodecs, scyjava) can
be installed using pip:
`pip install bfio`
## Docker
### polusai/bfio:2.4.8
Ubuntu based container with bfio and all dependencies (including Java).
### polusai/bfio:2.4.8-imagej
Same as above, except comes with ImageJ and PyImageJ.
### polusai/bfio:2.4.8-tensorflow
Tensorflow container with bfio installed.
