The new BIDScoin v4 series is here!
With a lot of important improvements that should make your (and my) life significantly easier :-). The most notable changes are:
Added
- Support for BIDS 1.8.0
- Support for handling of non-alphanumeric characters in sub/ses prefixes
- A new (optional) pet2bids plugin
- A `skullstrip` tool (a bids-wrapper around FreeSurfer/synthstrip)
- A `slicereport` QC tool (a bids-wrapper around FSL/slicesdir)
- A unit/integration test & CI framework
- New Dockerfile and Apptainer/Singularity definition files to run BIDScoin in a container
- A BIDSCOIN_DEBUG environment variable to run bidscoin in a more verbose debug mode
- VERBOSE and SUCCESS logging levels
- Checks using the bids-validator python module
- Options to perform study/template bidsmap tests with `bidscoin -b / -t`
- Option to list and install template bidsmaps
- Many bugfixes, user interface improvements and tweaks
Changed
- The default behaviour is now to **not** unzip data in the sourcefolders anymore. Instead, users can use the `--unzip` option in the bidsmapper
- The spec2nii plugin is no longer added by default but is optional
- The dcm2niix2bids plugin no longer handles PET data (this is now handled by the pet2bids plugin)
- Removed BIDScoin's redundant/confusing `datatypes` option from the bidsmap
- Removed the obscure `participants` option from bidscoiner
- Major code refactoring
Enjoy!
