Simplified MINC2 API for C,Python and LUA

More interfaces to come

Goal

To provide access to most functionality of MINC2 file format with minimal effort, with consistent interface

Installing

Common Requirements

• MINC2 library with headers, either by itself or as part of minc-toolkit or minc-toolkit-v2, see http://bic-mni.github.io/

C

• Requirements: cmake
• Installation:

  mkdir build
  cd build
  cmake .. 
  make 
  

• If location of minc2 library is not found:

  cmake -DLIBMINC_DIR:PATH=<location of libminc>
  

LUA

• Requirements: torch ( http://torch.ch/ )
• Installation:

  cd lua
  luarocks make
  

• If location of minc2 library is not found:

  cd build.luarocks/
  cmake -DLIBMINC_DIR:PATH=<location of libminc>
  cd ..
  luarocks make
  

Python

• Requirements: cffi, numpy, six
• Optional requirements: scipy
• Installation:

  python python/setup.py build
  python python/setup.py install 
  

• If libminc is not found: set environment MINC_TOOLKIT variable to point to the base on installation
