Version 0.15.0 (March 28, 2022)

New feature release in the 0.15.x series.

Downstream tools should be aware of a potentially breaking, albeit long-demanded, change introduced in #819. Run indices are now stored so that the integers that come out retain any zero-padding that was found during parsing.

This release also introduces the bids.ext namespace package that allows independent packages to install modules in this namespace. This is an infrastructural change that will allow some components to be separately managed and follow a different development pace.

  • FIX: Clarify exception message (#806)
  • FIX: Catch UnicodeDecodeErrors along with JSONDecodeErrors for better reporting (#796)

  • ENH: Retain zero-padding in run entities while preserving integer queries and comparisons (#819)
  • ENH: Add bids.ext namespace package for subpackages (#820)
  • ENH: Handle wildcards in model X (#810)
  • ENH: Implement automatic detection of derivative data (#805)
  • ENH: Add new Query for optional entities (#809)
  • ENH: Add __main__ to allow python -m bids to run CLI (#794)
  • REF: Improve modularization of bids.reports (#617)
  • DOC: Link from sphinx documentation to notebook tutorials. (#797)
  • MNT: Test on Python 3.10, various CI updates (#824)

Version 0.9.0 (May 21, 2019)

Version 0.9 replaces the native Python backend with a SQLite database managed via SQLAlchemy. The layout module has been refactored (again), but API changes are minimal. This release also adds many new features and closes a number of open issues.

API CHANGES/DEPRECATIONS:

  • The extensions argument has now been banished forever; instead, use extension, which is now defined as a first-class entity. The former will continue to work until at least the 0.11 release (closes #404).
  • Relatedly, values for extension should no longer include a leading ., though this should also continue to work for the time being.
  • The BIDSLayout init argument index_associated has been removed as the various other filtering/indexing options mean there is longer a good reason for users to manipulate this.
  • bids.layout.MetadataIndex no longer exists. It's unlikely that anyone will notice this.
  • BIDSLayout.get_metadata() no longer takes additional entities as optional keyword arguments (they weren't necessary for anything).
  • Direct access to most BIDSFile properties is discouraged, and in one case is broken in 0.9 (for .metadata, which was unavoidable, because it's reserved by SQLAlchemy). Instead, users should use getters (get_metadata, get_image, get_df, etc.) whenever possible.

NEW FUNCTIONALITY:

  • All file and metadata indexing and querying is now supported by a relational (SQLite) database (see #422). While this has few API implications, the efficiency of many operations is improved, and complex user-generated queries can now be performed via the SQLAlchemy .session stored in each BIDSLayout.
  • Adds .save() method to the BIDSLayout that saves the current SQLite DB to the specified location. Conversely, passing a filename as database_file at init will use the specified store instead of re-indexing all files. This eliminates the need for a pickling strategy (#435).
  • Related to the above, the BIDSLayout init adds a reset_database argument that forces reindexing even if a database_file is specified.
  • The BIDSLayout has a new index_metadata flag that controls whether or not the contents of JSON metadata files are indexed.
  • Added metadata flag to BIDSLayout.to_df() that controls whether or not metadata columns are included in the returned pandas DataFrame (#232).
  • Added get_entities() method to BIDSLayout that allows retrieval of all Entity instances available within a specified scope (#346).
  • Adds drop_invalid_filters argument to BIDSLayout.get(), enabling users to (optionally) ensure that invalid filters don't clobber all search results (#402).
  • BIDSFile instances now have a get_associations() method that returns associated files (see #431).
  • The BIDSFile class has been split into a hierarchy, with BIDSImageFile and BIDSDataFile subclasses. The former adds a get_image() method (returns a NiBabel image); the latter adds a get_df() method (returns a pandas DF). All BIDSFile instances now also have a get_entities() method.

BUG FIXES AND OTHER MINOR CHANGES:

  • Metadata key/value pairs and file entities are now treated identically, eliminating a source of ambiguity in search (see #398).
  • Metadata no longer bleeds between raw and derivatives directories unless explicitly specified (see #383).
  • BIDSLayout.get_collections() no longer drops user-added columns (#273).
  • Various minor fixes/improvements/changes to tests.
  • The tutorial Jupyter notebook has been fixed and updated to reflect the latest changes.

Version 0.8.0 (February 15, 2019)

Version 0.8 refactors much of the layout module. It drops the grabbit dependency, overhauls the file indexing process, and features a number of other improvements. However, changes to the public API are very minimal, and in the vast majority of cases, 0.8 should be a drop-in replacement for 0.7.*.

API-BREAKING CHANGES:

  • Changes to (rarely-used) BIDSLayout initialization arguments:

    • include and exclude have been replaced with ignore and force_index. Paths passed to ignore will be ignored from indexing; paths passed to force_index will be forcibly indexed even if they are otherwise BIDS-non-compliant. force_index takes precedence over ignore.
  • Most querying/selection methods add a new scope argument that controls scope of querying (e.g., 'raw', 'derivatives', 'all', etc.). In some cases this replaces the more limited derivatives argument.

  • No more domains: with the grabbit removal (see below), the notion of a 'domain' has been removed. This should impact few users, but those who need to restrict indexing or querying to specific parts of a BIDS project should be able to use the scope argument more effectively.

OTHER CHANGES:

  • FIX: Path indexing issues in get_file() (#379)
  • FIX: Duplicate file returns under certain conditions (#350)
  • FIX: Pass new variable args as kwargs in split() (#386) @effigies
  • TEST: Update naming conventions for synthetic dataset (#385) @effigies
  • REF: The grabbit package is no longer a dependency; as a result, much of the functionality from grabbit has been ported over to pybids.
  • REF: Required functionality from six and inflect is now bundled with pybids in bids.external, minimizing external dependencies.
  • REF: Core modules have been reorganized. Key data structures and containers (e.g., BIDSFile, Entity, etc.) are now in a new bids.layout.core module.
  • REF: A new Config class has been introduced to house the information found in bids.json and other layout configuration files.
  • REF: The file-indexing process has been completely refactored. A new hierarchy of BIDSNode objects has been introduced. While this has no real impact on the public API, and isn't really intended for public consumption yet, it will in future make it easier for users to work with BIDS projects in a tree-like way, while also laying the basis for a more sensible approach to reading and accessing associated BIDS data (e.g., .tsv files).
  • MNT: All invocations of pd.read_table have been replaced with read_csv.

Version 0.7.1 (February 01, 2019)

This is a bug fix release in the 0.7 series. The primary API change is improved handling of Path objects.

  • FIX: Path validation (#342)
  • FIX: Ensure consistent entities at all levels (#326)
  • FIX: Edge case where a resampled column was too-long-by-one (#365)

Version 0.7.0 (January 10, 2019)

This is a major, API-breaking release. It introduces a large number of new features, bug fixes, and improvements.

API-BREAKING CHANGES:

  • A number of entities (or keywords) have been renamed to align more closely with the BIDS specification documents: * 'type' becomes 'suffix' * 'modality' becomes 'datatype' * 'acq' is removed (use 'acquisition') * 'mod' becomes 'modality'
  • The following directories are no longer indexed by default: derivatives/, code/, stimuli/, models/, sourcedata/. They must be explicitly included using the 'include' initialization argument.
  • The grabbids module has been renamed to layout and BIDSLayout.py and BIDSvalidator.py are now layout.py and validation.py, respectively.
  • The BIDS validator is now enabled by default at layout initialization (i.e., validate=True)
  • The exclude initialization argument has been removed.
  • BIDSLayout.parse_entities utility has been removed (use the more flexible parse_file_entities).
  • Calls to .get() now return BIDSFile objects, rather than namedtuples, by default (#281). The BIDSFile API has been tweaked to ensure backwards incompatibility in nearly all cases.
  • Naming conventions throughout the codebase have been updated to ensure consistency with the BIDS specs. This is most salient in the analysis module, where snake_case has been replaced with CamelCase throughout.

NEW FEATURES:

  • File metadata (i.e., in JSON sidecars) is now searchable by default, and behaves just like native BIDS entities (e.g., metadata keys can be passed as arguments to .get() calls)
  • A new BIDSFile wrapper provides easy access to .metadata and .image
  • HRF convolution is now supported via bundling of nistats' hemodynamic_models module; convolution is handled via the convolve_HRF transformation.
  • Named config paths that customize how projects are processed can be added at run-time (#313)
  • Preliminary support for BIDS-Derivatives RC1 (mainly core keywords)

MINOR IMPROVEMENTS AND BUG FIXES:

Version 0.5.1 (March 9, 2018)

Hotfix release:

  • Includes data files omitted from 0.5.0 release.
  • Improves testing of installation.

Version 0.5.0 (March 6, 2018)

This is a major release that introduces the following features:

  • A new bids.variables module that adds the following submodules: * bids.variables.entities.py: Classes for representing BIDS hierarchies as a graph-like structure. * bids.variables.variables.py: Classes and functions for representing and manipulating non-imaging data read from BIDS projects (e.g., fMRI events, densely-sampled physiological measures, etc.). * bids.variables.io.py: Tools for loading variable data from BIDS projects. * bids.variables.collections: Containers that facilitate aggregation and manipulation of Variable classes.
  • Extensions to the BIDSLayout class that make it easy to retrieve data/variables from the project (i.e., Layout.get_collections)
  • A new auto_model utility that generates simple BIDS-Model specifications from BIDS projects (thanks to @Shotgunosine)
  • A new reports module that generates methods sections from metadata in BIDS projects (thanks to @tsalo)
  • Experimental support for copying/writing out files in a BIDS-compliant way
  • Expand bids.json config file to include missing entity definitions
  • Ability to parse files without updating the Layout index
  • Updated grabbids module to reflect grabbit changes that now allow many-to-many mapping of configurations to folders
  • Too many other minor improvements and bug fixes to list (when you're very lazy, even a small amount of work is too much)
