Dear Hardik,
Sorry for the inconvenience, I noticed an issue with your access token and have reset the token. Can you give the NSRR gem another try, it should now correctly download the files from SHHS. You token has also changed, so you'll need to visit https://sleepdata.org/token to get the new one.
Thanks!
Remo
Dear Jaspal,
Thanks for reaching out to us! Can you provide us with more information of the version of EdfBrowser you are using and where you downloaded it? Is this program written in Java, or are you using @DennisDean's Matlab Block EDF Loader?
Once we figure this out we can put you in contact with the correct developers of the tools, thanks!
Also, if you simply need to view the files, you can click the "Preview Online" link on the EDF download page to browse them using our online viewer. Note: You will need to be logged in and have a DAUA filled out for the dataset to preview the EDFs online.
Dear Stephany,
Thanks for the detailed information. I wanted to add that if you would like to follow any of the code changes and discussions, we have two pull requests/issues open on GitHub to suggest changes to the NSRR translator tool.
Fixing Missing First Epoch
https://github.com/nsrr/edf-editor-translator/pull/3
Discussion on How to Handle Last Sleep Stage
https://github.com/nsrr/edf-editor-translator/issues/4
Thanks again, we'll send you an update when these changes go through, and will also update the corresponding files in the NSRR datasets.
Hi Stephany, currently there is no method for single file downloads, outside of directly downloading them through the browser. However we have had this requested in the past, and may be adding this in a v0.3.0 of the nsrr gem. I'll send you a message when the functionality has been added. Thanks for the feedback!
edit: v0.3.0 is now available!
Just as another quick reference, here are a couple of nsrr gem commands to download different datasets:
SHHS Files
nsrr download shhs
nsrr download shhs/polysomnography/edfs
nsrr download shhs/datasets
CHAT Files
nsrr download chat
nsrr download chat/polysomnography/edfs
nsrr download chat/datasets
Also remember to run the command in the same location on your computer, that way the nsrr gem can resume if you already downloaded files from a dataset.
If your current directory in the command prompt or terminal is "~/Desktop" for example, running nsrr download chat/polysomnography/edfs will create a folder in "~/Desktop/chat/polysomnography/edfs". If you then run the full CHAT download command (nsrr download chat) from the "~/Desktop", then it would already see that it has downloaded the EDFs, and continue with "~/Desktop/chat/datasets" and other subfolders.
Glad to hear that you were able to use the nsrr gem!
If you want to only download a portion of a dataset, you can do so by navigating to the appropriate subfolder under the dataset files.
For example, if you only want to download datasets (and not EDFs) for SHHS, you can go to the datasets subfolder. Near the bottom of the page you will see a command listed that will only download that subfolder, in this case nsrr download shhs/datasets.
There are also other parameters you can set that you can read about here on our NSRR gem Documentation page.
If you need any further questions, I'd be happy to clarify further, thanks!
Hi Zhu,
The easiest way is to copy and paste the download token from the website directly into the console when using the NSRR gem. Make sure to include the number before the dash - as well as the rest of the string. The NSRR gem hides the input on the screen, but will still register the token if entered correctly. The gem still allows you to download publicly available files (like forms and data dictionaries) without entering a password which is why you sometimes see the folder structure generated without any files in it. A future version of the gem (v0.2.0+) should provide better feedback if the password was entered correctly or not. Hope that helps and thanks for the feedback!

For others interested in using the NSRR gem for downloading large numbers of files easily, you can view a short tutorial here:
https://sleepdata.org/demo#download-data
cc @mrueschman can you take a look at the staging files? I took a look at the MD5 hash for the files, and they are indeed identical!
Nice catch Shaun, we'll make this a priority to fix these. Glad you like the nsrr downloader!
After signing in, you can access your download token here: https://sleepdata.org/token
Additionally, the download token will only work for datasets for which you have an approved DAUA.
Hi Robert, The NSRR Review Committee should be meeting again soon and will review a number of recently submitted DAUAs. You'll be notified if your DAUA is approved or sent back for resubmission. Once it's approved, you'll be able to download the CSV datasets listed under the downloads folder for each dataset. Good luck with the computation!
