  • Manual construction of a DatasetIOConfiguration now requires the field dataset_name, and will be validated to match the final path of location_in_file. Usage via the automated constructors is unchanged. PR #767

PR #623
  • Added SegmentationImages to metadata_schema in BaseSegmentationExtractorInterface to allow for the modification of the name and description of Images container and description of the summary images. PR #622
  • Default chunking pattern of RecordingInterfaces now attempts to use as many channels as possible up to 64 total, and fill with as much time as possible up to the chunk_mb. This also required raising the lower HDMF version to 3.11.0 (which introduced 10 MB default chunk sizes). PR #630

Fixes

  • Fixed edge case in subset_sorting where end_frame could exceed recording length. PR #551
  • Alter add_electrodes behavior, no error is thrown if a property is present in the metadata but not in the recording extractors. This allows the combination of recording objects that have different properties. PR #558

Features

  • Added converters for Bruker TIF format to support multiple streams of imaging data. Added BrukerTiffSinglePlaneConverter for single plane imaging data which initializes a BrukerTiffSinglePlaneImagingInterface for each data stream.

v0.4.0

Back-compatibility break

  • Create separate .add_to_nwbfile method for all DataInterfaces. This is effectively the previous .run_conversion method but limited to operations on an in-memory nwbfile: pynwb.NWBFile` object and does not handle any I/O. PR #455

Fixes

  • Set gzip compression by default on spikeinterface based interfaces run_conversion. PR #499

  • Temporarily disabled filtering for all-zero traces in add_fluorescence_traces as the current implementation is very slow for nearly all zero traces (e.g. suite2p deconvolved traces). PR #527

Features

  • Added a common .temporally_align_data_interfaces method to the NWBConverter class to use as a specification of the protocol for temporally aligning the data interfaces of the converter. PR #362
