Summary

  • Adds pymef package recipe for conda-forge

Package Info

Description

Pymef is a wrapper library for Multiscale Electrophysiology Format (MEF) version 3.0, developed by the Mayo Systems Electrophysiology Laboratory. MEF is a medical data file format designed for storing neurophysiological electrographic data, such as intracranial EEG.

Technical Notes

  • The package contains C extensions that wrap the meflib C library
  • The meflib library is included as a git submodule in the pymef repository
  • Since GitHub tarballs don't include submodules, this recipe fetches both sources separately and copies the meflib source into place before building
  • PyPI only has wheel distributions (no sdist), so we build from the GitHub source

Motivation

This package is needed as a dependency for MNE-Python to support reading MEF3 format files. See the related PR: mne-tools/mne-python#13610

Checklist

  • License file is included
  • Source is from GitHub (tagged release)
  • Recipe builds with C compiler
  • Tests import the package

The package contains C extensions that wrap the meflib C library, which
is included as a git submodule. This recipe fetches both the pymef source
and the meflib source separately to handle the submodule dependency.

Hi! This is the friendly automated conda-forge-linting service.

I just wanted to let you know that I linted all conda-recipes in your PR (recipes/pymef/meta.yaml) and found it was in an excellent condition.

@bruAristimunha
Fix build scripts for correct meflib directory structure
7d1ae6a 
setup.py expects include_dirs=["meflib/meflib"], so the meflib
source files need to be at meflib/meflib/ not meflib/.

Also fixed the path handling - conda-build strips the top-level
directory from tarballs when using folder:, so the content is
directly in meflib_src/ not meflib_src/meflib-<hash>/.

Tested locally on macOS ARM64 - builds successfully for
Python 3.10, 3.11, 3.12, and 3.13.
