References #699. Continues from #762.

Changes proposed:

  • Take the metadata JSON files from the bids-validator and convert them to YAML format.
  • Add "description" and "key_name" fields to the metadata YAML files.
  • Add functions to render the metadata information in tables within the schema. These functions require the specification text to include the requirement levels.
  • Create files for a number of metadata terms that aren't present in the validator, but are present in specification tables.

To do:

Reviewing

I think the best approach to reviewing this PR is to (1) review the proposed metadata schema structure defined in the schema README and a handful or randomly chosen example terms, and (2) compare the rendered metadata tables against the hardcoded ones in the generated specification. These tasks can be split across multiple reviewers.

  • The concept of path "formats".

If possible, could someone who is familiar with [ENH] Major update to pointing to files within, outside of, or remote to a current BIDS dataset #820 take a look at these? They're discussed in the README file.

Now that these changes are on a branch of the main repository, it should be easier for other folks to contribute directly. The main thing that I could use help with is generalizing the base metadata definitions when necessary and appending section-specific information to those base definitions in the macro calls.

Okay, I think this is finally ready! @bids-standard/maintainers if any of you have the time, I'd appreciate your review.

Started by reviewing the code. Have not yet looked through the schema files or checked all of the rendered tables.

One thing I worry about, after moving to this, is that minor bugs in the code may result in visible changes to a table without being obviously part of the review process. Do we have a strategy to note when a change to the schema code produces a change in the generated markdown?

Quick note: I ran across yaml.safe_load which has been around forever as a convenience function equivalent to partial(yaml.load, loader=yaml.SafeLoader).

I now finished going through all changes and provided that my remaining comments are addressed, I think we can merge this 👍

This is a great piece of work @tsalo, thanks a lot.

@Remi-Gau @effigies In yesterday's maintainers call, we decided that it would be unrealistic to request a full review from anyone else, so instead of reviewing all of the content we were wondering if you'd be willing to do more of a conceptual review or a code review. We should have plenty of time before the next release for folks to identify any issues with the content, so any small content issues can be resolved after this is merged. WDYT?

Is there any reason that all the metadata files are separate instead of consolidated into one file (or even just a few)?

tsalo commented Jul 8, 2021

The biggest reason is that I find individual files easier to work with than one big file. While the idea of a few files is appealing, I don't think it would work well for metadata. The obvious delineation is based on data type, but unfortunately many metadata terms can be used for multiple data types.

Good with me though I will only be back "on duty" later this month (26th) so don't let my silence hold you back on the merge anyway (plus most of my comments will be on formatting and missing comas most likely).

@tsalo could you please update this PR with respect to

Then I'd be fine with removing the hard-coded tables and merging, as Chris and Remi are currently unavailable and we didn't plan on having a "deep" review anyhow (that's already happened).

Awesome! I incorporated the changes for the two PRs, and looked at the rendered docs. The docs look good, so I'm going to remove the hardcoded tables now.

Okay the tables have been removed and the CI is passing.... should I merge? Is it time?!

Did a code review. Only one suggestion, really. I haven't tested, so you may want to test before merging. Or reject if it seems less clear.
