Read shapes from a SpatialData shapes directory

SpatialData shapes are stored as zarr DataFrames with x, y columns and optionally a radius column. This follows the anndata on-disk DataFrame encoding (vlen-utf8 string index + numeric columns).

Usage

.read_spatialdata_shapes(path, verbose = TRUE)

Arguments

path

Path to the shapes zarr group (e.g., shapes/spots)

verbose

Show progress

Value

A list with coords (numeric matrix with x, y columns) and radius (numeric scalar or NULL). Returns NULL if the shapes cannot be read.
