Installation

• This page describes how to download the scitranClient code.

Github repositories

You can install this scitranClient and another essential toolbox, Guillaume Flandin's code to read and write JSON files (JSONio) by

git clone https://github.com/vistasoft/scitran
git clone https://github.com/gllmflndn/JSONio

This will create two directories, scitran and JSONio. Please add both directories to your path, say by using

chdir(<scitran directory>); addpath(genpath(pwd));
chdir(<JSONio directory>); addpath(genpath(pwd));

Flywheel SDK

Matlab toolbox Add-Ons toolbox

First installation

The SDK is installed as a Matlab toolbox managed using their 'Add-Ons' methods. You can do the installation with the scitran function from Matlab

stFlywheelSDK('install');

That command downloads the toolbox from the web and installs it as an Add-On toolbox. You can verify that the toolbox was installed using

stFlywheelSDK('verify')

>   Name: 'flywheel-sdk'
>   Version: '2.5.0'
>   Guid: 'd2fd5657-1710-494e-b5e9-23903828bfb3'

Upgrading

The SDK is under active development, and we anticipate several new releases through 2018 and into 2019. To install a new specific release number, we suggest you uninstall, restart matlab, and then install. We have done this sequence several times with success; we haven't succeeded without the restart. For example, to upgrade to version '2.5.0' you can do this:

stFlywheelSDK('uninstall');   % This uninstalls the current version
...
**RESTART MATLAB**
....
stFlywheelSDK('install','sdkVersion','2.5.0');   % The latest version changes over time.

The SDK is auto-generated into several different languages (Matlab, Python, and R).
