Tedana v0.0.12 - can't read metrics.tsv file

1

Hi all,

I’ve just updated my tedana version from 0.0.8 to 0.0.12, and am updating my wrapper scripts to interact with the new output formats. I’m running into difficulty with the desc-tedana_metrics.tsv file. When I try to open this using bids-matlab tool bids.util.tsvread, I get the error “Varying number of delimiters per line.” This seems to be because the accepted components don’t have an entry for the “rationale” column. Would it be possible for a future tedana release to add something to this column for accepted components, like “N/A,” so that the tsv file can be read by the bids-matlab tools?

Thanks,

Ben

Sometimes its the simple things that cause the most issues. I’ll take a look at this - its an easy fix, but want to make sure other devs don’t have other plans for that empty space.

It looks like tedana already fills empty cells with “n/a” in its tsv files (see here).
