Description

Hi Kai,

I have several AnnData created directly from fragment files. If I did not add any matrix to AnnData's X, and combine them into AnnDataSet (this step is OK).

  1. I find that it always report Errors when I used to_adata function for the merged AnnDataSet object.

thread '' panicked at /root/.cargo/registry/src/index.crates.io-6f17d22bba15001f/anndata-0.3.1/src/anndata/dataset.rs:302:81:
called Option::unwrap() on a None value
note: run with RUST_BACKTRACE=1 environment variable to display a backtrace

  1. if I run a.X (a: AnnDataSet), it also reports error:

PanicException: called Option::unwrap() on a None value. (this is the last line of the Error, the whole stacks are about using pretty method to print the results in IPython.)

But AnnData is OK if X is empty. Just nothing is showed in my IPython REPL.

Thanks!
Songpeng

Research direction

Reproduce the issue with an AnnDataSet whose AnnData objects have empty X, using the to_adata and X entry points. Inspect the reported anndata dataset.py location and verify that conversion and X access no longer panic while preserving the empty-X behavior.
