pymaid.join_nodes

pymaid.join_nodes(winner_node, looser_node, no_prompt=False, tag_nodes=True, remote_instance=None)[source]

Join two skeletons by nodes.

All annotations are being kept. Reference to original neuron will be added.

Parameters:
  • winner_node (int) – Node ID of winning skeleton to merge onto. Skeleton ID of this neuron will persist.

  • looser_node (int) – Node ID of loosing skeleton to merge. Skeleton ID of this neuron will be lost!

  • no_prompt (bool, optional) – If True, will NOT prompt before joining.

  • tag_nodes (bool | str | tuple of str, optional) –

    If not False, will add tags to nodes:

    If True add "joined into {WINNING SKELETON ID}"
    to loosing and "joined from {LOOSING SKELETON ID}"
    to winning node.
    
    If str, will add string as tag to both nodes.
    
    If tuple of two strings (str1, str2), will add
    str1 to winning and str2 to loosing node.
    

  • remote_instance (CatmaidInstance, optional) – If not passed directly, will try using global.
