Helper function to get the dimensions and storage format
get_h5ad_dimensions.RdDistinguishes sparse (CSR/CSC) from dense storage. For dense X the
orientation is inferred by comparing the matrix dims against the obs and
var lengths (DENSE_ROW = cells x genes, DENSE_COL = genes x cells).
Ties (no_obs == no_var) fall back to the AnnData convention (DENSE_ROW).
Value
A list with dims (named integer c(obs, var)) and type (one of
"CSR", "CSC", "DENSE_ROW", "DENSE_COL").
Examples
# dimensions and storage layout without reading the counts
data <- generate_single_cell_test_data(
syn_data_params = params_sc_synthetic_data(n_cells = 200L, n_genes = 40L)
)
f_path <- tempfile(fileext = ".h5ad")
write_h5ad_sc(f_path, data$counts, data$obs, data$var, .verbose = FALSE)
get_h5ad_dimensions(f_path)
#> $dims
#> obs var
#> 200 40

#> $type
#> [1] "CSR"
