Converter Update

biochain-slide-converter-v3Download

Download ☝️ Unzip 🗜️ install.bat 🐎

If converting .svs (slides):

  • load .svs files into /upload-svs
  • 2x click => converter.bat

If checking slides only:

  • 2x click => converter.bat

The following will happen very quickly, and it’s not important that you read everything, only if the code hangs/freezes and throws an error.

On a successful run:

You’ll see the slides to be converted listed by filename (under the yellow WARN message)

The converter / audit will now run in the background, looking something like the video below.

You don’t need to wait for the full convert/audit to complete in order to open http://localhost:3000/ in your browser and start viewing slides (you’ll just be seeing data from the last run.)

Once the app is running, opening http://localhost:3000 (you can use this link)
You’ll see messages re: both slide conversion and the slide file audit, (assuming you’re doing both). Notice the number complete is now visible as the slides are being checked.

Once the slide audit and conversions are done, you’ll know as the terminal messaging window will look like this:

“Updated live.json” means you can refresh the app (your browser window at http://localhost:3000) and you’ll now be seeing the data that was audited just now.

This means opening/refreshing http://localhost:3000 will show you up-to-date info on the status of all slides (either from the master .csv, or those just uploaded via the app.)

Errors re: conversion / upload will be reported in the error table at top.
