NeuroDataPub: NCCR-SYNAPSY Neuroimaging Dataset Publishing Tool
Latest released version: v0.4
This tool is developed by the Connectomics Lab at the University Hospital of Lausanne (CHUV) for use within the lab and within the National Centre of Competence in Research (NCCR) “SYNAPSY – Synaptic Bases of Mental Diseases” NCCR-SYNAPSY, as well as for open-source software distribution.
Introduction
NeuroDataPub
is a neuroimaging dataset publishing tool
written in Python and
built on top of Datalad
and git-annex
, that lowers the barriers, for the
NCCR-SYNAPSY members, to adopt Datalad to manage and publish, privately or publicly,
their dataset repository on GitHub and the annexed files on their SSH data server,
in order to fully fulfill the implemented Neuroimaging Data Management Plan.
Since v0.3
, you can use either (1) a server accessible via ssh
or (2) the
Open Science Foundation (OSF) platform, as a git-annex special remote, to host
your annexed files.
Since v0.4
, NeuroDataPub
can handle datasets that do and do not follow the
Brain Imaging Data Structure standard.
NeuroDataPub
comes with its graphical user interface, aka the
NeuroDataPub Assistant
, created to facilitate:
the configuration of the siblings,
the creation of the JSON configuration files, as well as
the execution of
NeuroDataPub
in the three different modes, andthe creation of a Linux shell script for later execution where all commands are recorded.
