Use GetImageSetMetadata with an AWS SDK or CLI - AWS HealthImaging

The following code examples show how to use GetImageSetMetadata.

Action examples are code excerpts from larger programs and must be run in context. You can see this action in context in the following code example:

SDK for C++

Utility function to get image set metadata.

//! Routine which gets a HealthImaging image set's metadata. /*! \param dataStoreID: The HealthImaging data store ID. \param imageSetID: The HealthImaging image set ID. \param versionID: The HealthImaging image set version ID, ignored if empty. \param outputFilePath: The path where the metadata will be stored as gzipped json. \param clientConfig: Aws client configuration. \\return bool: Function succeeded. */ bool AwsDoc::Medical_Imaging::getImageSetMetadata(const Aws::String &dataStoreID, const Aws::String &imageSetID, const Aws::String &versionID, const Aws::String &outputFilePath, const Aws::Client::ClientConfiguration &clientConfig) { Aws::MedicalImaging::Model::GetImageSetMetadataRequest request; request.SetDatastoreId(dataStoreID); request.SetImageSetId(imageSetID); if (!versionID.empty()) { request.SetVersionId(versionID); } Aws::MedicalImaging::MedicalImagingClient client(clientConfig); Aws::MedicalImaging::Model::GetImageSetMetadataOutcome outcome = client.GetImageSetMetadata( request); if (outcome.IsSuccess()) { std::ofstream file(outputFilePath, std::ios::binary); auto &metadata = outcome.GetResult().GetImageSetMetadataBlob(); file << metadata.rdbuf(); } else { std::cerr << "Failed to get image set metadata: " << outcome.GetError().GetMessage() << std::endl; } return outcome.IsSuccess(); }

Get image set metadata without version.

if (AwsDoc::Medical_Imaging::getImageSetMetadata(dataStoreID, imageSetID, "", outputFilePath, clientConfig)) { std::cout << "Successfully retrieved image set metadata." << std::endl; std::cout << "Metadata stored in: " << outputFilePath << std::endl; }

Get image set metadata with version.

if (AwsDoc::Medical_Imaging::getImageSetMetadata(dataStoreID, imageSetID, versionID, outputFilePath, clientConfig)) { std::cout << "Successfully retrieved image set metadata." << std::endl; std::cout << "Metadata stored in: " << outputFilePath << std::endl; }

CLI
AWS CLI

Example 1: To get image set metadata without version

The following get-image-set-metadata code example gets metadata for an image set without specifying a version.

Note: outfile is a required parameter

aws medical-imaging get-image-set-metadata \ --datastore-id 12345678901234567890123456789012 \ --image-set-id ea92b0d8838c72a3f25d00d13616f87e \ studymetadata.json.gz

The returned metadata is compressed with gzip and stored in the studymetadata.json.gz file. To view the contents of the returned JSON object, you must first decompress it.

Output:

{ "contentType": "application/json", "contentEncoding": "gzip" }

Example 2: To get image set metadata with version

The following get-image-set-metadata code example gets metadata for an image set with a specified version.

Note: outfile is a required parameter

aws medical-imaging get-image-set-metadata \ --datastore-id 12345678901234567890123456789012 \ --image-set-id ea92b0d8838c72a3f25d00d13616f87e \ --version-id 1 \ studymetadata.json.gz

The returned metadata is compressed with gzip and stored in the studymetadata.json.gz file. To view the contents of the returned JSON object, you must first decompress it.

Output:

{ "contentType": "application/json", "contentEncoding": "gzip" }
