add_file

add_file(path: Path, bids_ds: BIDS_Global_info | None = None) -> None

Parameters:

path Path

Path to the companion file. Its stem must match :attr:BIDS_key.

rename_files(path: Path | str, ending: str = '.nii.gz') -> None

Rename all associated files on disk to a new base path.

Parameters:

Name Type Description Default
path Path | str

Target path including the primary extension (e.g. /out/sub-001_T1w.nii.gz).

Extension that terminates path and that will be stripped before adding per-extension suffixes.

action

action(action_fun: Callable[[BIDS_FILE], None], filter_fun: str | Callable[[str | object], bool] = lambda x: True, key: str = '', required: bool = True, all_in_sequence: bool = False) -> None

Apply action_fun to every candidate file that passes the filter.

Parameters:

Name Type Description Default
action_fun Callable[[BIDS_FILE], None]

Callable invoked with each matching :class:BIDS_FILE as its sole argument.

required
key str

The entity to inspect for filtering (same semantics as in :meth:filter). An empty string matches everything.

''
filter_fun str | Callable[[str | object], bool]

Matching criterion — a string for exact match or a callable predicate. Defaults to a predicate that always returns True (act on all candidates).

lambda x: True
required bool

If True, candidates where key is absent are skipped. Defaults to True.

True
all_in_sequence bool

In unflatten mode, when True and at least one file in a sequence bucket matches, action_fun is called on every file in that bucket. Defaults to False.

False

Raises:

AssertionError

Groups family keys by their base format (the part before the first _) and accumulates (key_count, file_count) tuples.

Returns:

Type Description
dict[str, tuple[int, int]]

A dictionary mapping base-format label to a

dict[str, tuple[int, int]]

(number_of_keys, total_file_count) tuple.

A single format key, a list of format keys, or None to include all keys.

None

get(item: str | list[str], default: list[BIDS_FILE] | None = None) -> list[BIDS_FILE] | None

Return the list of :class:BIDS_FILE instances for the first matching key.

When item is a list the method tries each element in order and returns the first hit.

Parameters:
