• Updated the `immv/imcp scripts to support FSLOUTPUTTYPE=ANALYZE (!405).

Fixed

• Updated the `immv/imcp scripts to honour the $FSLOUTPUTTYPE environment variable more closely - conversions between NIFTI1 and NIFTI2 were not being performed correctly (!405).

3.13.3 (Monday 17th July 2023)

Changed

• Callback functions registered with :class:`.Notifier` instances no longer need to accept three arguments (!400).

3.9.4 (Friday 27th May 2022)

Changed

• Changed the behaviour of :meth:`.Image.__getitem__` so that, if image data is accessed with a boolean mask array (e.g. image[mask > 0]), the image data is loaded into memory (!341).

3.9.3 (Friday 27th May 2022)

Fixed

• Fixed an issue in the :func:`~.fslsub.func_to_cmd` function (!339).

3.9.1 (Friday 13th May 2022)

Changed

• Adjusted the :func:`.applyArgStyle` function so that it allows separate specification of the style to use for single-character arguments. This fixes some usage issues with commands such as FSL fast, which have regular --= arguments, but also single-character arguments which expect multiple positional values (!335).

3.9.0 (Tuesday 12th April 2022)

Added

• New :meth:`.Image.niftiDataTypeSize` method, which reports the number of bits per voxel, according to the NIfTI data type (!327).

Changed

• The :class:`.Image` class no longer uses an :class:`.ImageWrapper` to manage data access and assignment (!327).
• Semantics for accessing and modifying image data have changed. By default, image data access is now delegated to the underlying nibabel.Nifti1Image object (and so remains on disk by default). Image data can be loaded into memory by accessing the :meth:`.Image.data` property, or by modifying the data through :meth:`.Image.__setitem__` (!327).
• The :func:`~.fslsub.func_to_cmd` function now uses dill instead of pickle for serialisation (!328).

Fixed

• Fixes to the :mod:`.melodic` and :meth:`.eddy` wrapper functions.

Deprecated

• The :mod:`.imagewrapper` module (and the :class:`.ImageWrapper` class) is being migrated to FSLeyes (!327).
• The loadData, calcRange, and threaded arguments to the :class:`.Image` class are deprecated and no longer have any effect (!327).
• The :meth:`.Nifti.mapIndices` method is deprecated (!327).
• The :meth:`.Image.getImageWrapper`, :meth:`.Image.calcRange` and :meth:`.Image.loadData` methods are deprecated and no longer have any effect (!327).

3.8.2 (Tuesday 15th February 2022)

Fixed

• The the :func:`.topup` wrapper function now allows multiple file names to be passed to the --imain argument (!324).

3.8.1 (Tuesday 28th December 2021)

Fixed

• The :func:`.melodic` wrapper function no longer requires its input argument to be a NIFTI image or file (!321).

3.8.0 (Thursday 23rd December 2021)

Added

• New :func:`.fslorient` wrapper function (!315).
• The :class:`.Bitmap` class has basic support for loading JPEG2000 images (!316).

Added

• New :mod:`fsl.wrappers.fsl_sub` wrapper function for the fsl_sub command (!309).

Changed

• Performance of the :mod:`.imglob`, :mod:`.imln`, :mod:`imtest`, :mod:`.imrm` and :mod:`.remove_ext` scripts has been improved, by re-organising them to avoid unnecessary and expensive imports such as numpy (!310).
• The default behaviour of the :func:`fsl.utils.run.run` function (and hence that of all :mod:`fsl.wrappers` functions) has been changed so that the standard output and error of the called command is now forwarded to the calling Python process, in addition to being returned from run as strings. In other words, the default behaviour of run('cmd'), is now equivalent to run('cmd', log={"tee":True}). The previous default behaviour can be achieved with run('cmd', log={"tee":False}) (!309).
• The :func:`fsl.utils.run.run` and :func:`fsl.utils.run.runfsl` functions (and hence all :mod:`fsl.wrappers` functions) have been modified to use fsl.wrappers.fsl_sub instead of fsl.utils.fslsub.submit. This is an internal change which should not affect the usage of the run, runfsl or wrapper functions (!309).

Deprecated

• :class:`fsl.utils.fslsub.SubmitParams` and :func:`fsl.utils.fslsub.submit` have been deprecated in favour of using the fsl.wrappers.fsl_sub wrapper function (!309).
• The :func:`fsl.utils.fslsub.info` function has been deprecated in favour of using the fsl_sub.report function, from the separate fsl_sub Python library (!309).

Added

• New :func:`.epi_reg` wrapper function (!306).

Changed

• When creating an Image object with loadData=False, the calcRange argument is ignored, as it would otherwise cause the data to be loaded (!301).

3.6.2 (Wednesday 23rd June 2021)

Changed

• The fsl.wrappers.fast wrapper passes -v to fast if v=True or verbose=True is specified.

3.6.1 (Thursday 27th May 2021)

Changed

• Removed the dataclasses backport from requirements (!297).

3.6.0 (Monday 19th April 2021)

• The fslpy API ocumentation is now hosted at https://open.win.ox.ac.uk/pages/fsl/fslpy (!290).
• The :mod:`fsl` and :mod:`fsl.scripts` packages have been changed from being pkgutil-style namespace packages to now being native namespace packages (!290).

• The :func:`.bids.loadMetadata` function no long resolves sym-links when determining whether a file is contained within a BIDS data set (!287).
• The :class:`.Image` class can now be created from a pathlib.Path object (!292).

• Deprecated a number of GUI-specific properties in the :mod:`fsl.utils.platform` module, including frozen, haveGui, canHaveGui, inSSHSession, inVNCSession, wxPlatform, wxFlavour, glVersion, glRenderer, and glIsSoftwareRenderer. Equivalent functions are being added to the fsleyes-widgets library (!285).
• The :mod:`fsl.utils.filetree` package has been deprecated, and will be removed in a future version of fslpy - it is now published as a separate library on [PyPI](https://pypi.org/project/file-tree/) (!286).

Fixed

• Fixed an edge-case in the :mod:`.gifti` module, where a surface with a single triangle was being loaded incorrectly (!288).
• Fixed an issue in the :func:`~.fslsub.func_to_cmd` function, where it was unintentionally leaving flie handles open (!291).

3.5.3 (Tuesday 9th February 2021)

Fixed

• Fixed a bug in :func:`.featanalysis.loadClusterResults` (!281).

3.5.2 (Friday 29th January 2021)

Fixed

• Adjusted the :func:`.dicom.scanDir` function so that it will set a default value for SeriesDescription if it is not present in the dcm2niix json output (!279).

3.5.1 (Thursday 21st January 2021)

Added

• New :func:`.featanalysis.loadFsf` function, for loading arbitrary .fsf files (!276).

• New :mod:`.tbss` wrapper functions for TBSS commands.

Changed

• Calls to functions in the :mod:`.assertions` module are disabled when a wrapper function is called with cmdonly=True.

3.3.3 (Wednesday 13th October 2020)

Changed

• The :func:`.fileOrImage` (and related) decorators will not manipulate the return value of a decorated function if an argument cmdonly=True is passed. This is so that wrapper functions will directly return the command that would be executed when cmdonly=True.

3.3.2 (Tuesday 12th October 2020)

Changed

• Most :func:`.wrapper` functions now accept an argument called cmdonly which, if True, will cause the generated command-line call to be returned, instead of executed.

3.3.1 (Thursday 8th October 2020)

Changed

• The :func:`.affine.decompose` and :func:`.affine.compose` functions now have the ability to return/accept shear components.

Fixed

• Fixed a bug in the :func:`.affine.decompose` function which was corrupting the scale estimates when given an affine containing shears.

3.2.2 (Thursday 9th July 2020)

Changed

• The :func:`.fslsub.func_to_cmd` function allows more fine-grained control over whether the script file is removed after the job has finished running.

3.2.1 (Tuesday 23rd June 2020)

Changed

• Minor updates to documentation.

3.2.0 (Thursday 11th June 2020)

Added

• A new :func:`.fslsub.hold` function to wait on previously submitted jobs, to be used in place of the wait function.

Removed

• The :func:`.fslsub.wait` (and :func:`.run.wait`) function has been removed, as repeated calls to qstat can adversely affect the cluster job submission system.

3.1.0 (Thursday 21st May 2020)

Added

• New :mod:`.cifti` module, providing classes and functions for working with CIFTI data.
• New :func:`.winpath` and :func:`wslpath` functions for working with paths when using FSL in a Windows Subsystem for Linux (WSL) environment.

• New :meth:`.Platform.fslwsl` attribute for detecting whether FSL is installed in a WSL environment.
• New :meth:`.Image.niftiDataType` property.
• The :class:`.FileTree` class has been updated to allow creation of deep copies via the new :meth:`.FileTree.copy` method.

Changed

• :func:`.Image` objects created from numpy arrays will be NIFTI1 or NIFTI2, depending on the value of the $FSLOUTPUTTYPE environment variable.

Fixed

• Updated the :func:`.fast` wrapper to support some single-character command-line flags.

3.0.1 (Wednesday 15th April 2020)

Changed

• The :func:`.isMelodicDir` function now accepts directories that do not end with .ica, as long as all required files are present.
• Added the dataclasses backport, so fslpy is now compatible with Python 3.6 again.

3.0.0 (Sunday 29th March 2020)

Added

• New wrapper functions for the FSL :class:`.fslstats`, :func:`.prelude` and :func:`applyxfm4D` commands.

• New :class:`.SubmitParams` class, providing a higer level interface for cluster submission.
• New :meth:`.FileTree.load_json` and :meth:`.FileTree.save_json` methods.

Changed

• fslpy now requires a minimum Python version of 3.7.
• The default value for the partial_fill option to :meth:`.FileTree.read` has been changed to False. Accordingly, the :class:`.FileTreeQuery` calls the :meth:`.FileTree.partial_fill` method on the FileTree it is given.
• The :func:`.gifti.relatedFiles` function now supports files with BIDS-style naming conventions.
• The :func:`.run.run` and :func:`.run.runfsl` functions now pass through any additional keyword arguments to subprocess.Popen or, if submit=True, to :func:`fslsub.submit`.
• The :func:`.fslsub.submit` function now accepts an env option, allowing environment variables to be specified.
• The :func:`.run.runfsl` function now raises an error on attempts to run a command which is not present in $FSLDIR/bin/ (e.g. ls).
• The :mod:`.bids` module has been updated to support files with any extension, not just those in the core BIDS specification (.nii, .nii.gz, .json, .tsv).
• The return value of a function decorated with :func:`.fileOrImage`, :func:`.fileOrArray`, or :func:`.fileOrText` is now accessed via an attribute called stdout, instead of output.
• Output files of functions decorated with :func:`.fileOrImage`, :func:`.fileOrArray`, or :func:`.fileOrText`, which have been loaded via the :attr:`.LOAD` symbol, can now be accessed as attributes of the returned results object, in addition to being accessed as dict items.
• Wrapper functions decorated with the :func:`.fileOrImage`, :func:`.fileOrArray`, or :func:`.fileOrText` decorators will now pass all arguments and return values through unchanged if an argument called submit is passed in, and is set to True (or any non-False value). Furthermore, in such a scenario a :exc:`ValueError` will be raised if any in-memory objects or LOAD symbols are passed.
• The :func:`.fileOrText` decorator has been updated to work with input values - file paths must be passed in as pathlib.Path objects, so they can be differentiated from input values.
• Loaded :class:`.Image` objects returned by :mod:`fsl.wrappers` functions are now named according to the wrapper function argument name.

Fixed

• Updated the :func:`.prepareArgs` function to use shlex.split when preparing shell command arguments, instead of performing a naive whitespace split.
• Fixed some bugs in the :func:`.fslsub.info` and :func:`.fslinfo.wait` functions.

• Removed the deprecated resample.calculateMatrix function.

2.8.4 (Monday 2nd March 2020)

Added

• Added a new partial_fill option to :meth:`.FileTree.read`, which effectively eliminates any variables which only have one value. This was added to accommodate some behavioural changes that were introduced in 2.8.2.

2.8.3 (Friday 28th February 2020)

Fixed

• Fixed a bug in the :meth:`.Image.save` method.
