Input sub-01_dwi.nii is not currently supported by PyDesigner

[Mohammadmasood1992]

Hello PyDesigner team,

I am trying to run PyDesigner on my dataset, but I encountered an error: "Input /data/dwi/sub-01_dwi.nii is not currently supported by PyDesigner." I tried using a sample dataset from OpenNeuro, but I received the same error.

I am running the following command:

docker run -it --rm -v /Users/mb/Documents/pyd/sub-01:/data dmri/neurodock pydesigner --standard --output /data/p /data/dwi/sub-01_dwi.nii

Could you please assist me in resolving this issue?
Thank you in advance!

Hi @Mohammadmasood1992. This error is misleading and occurs when an input nifti file is not accompanied by a JSON sidecar. Your DWI file should come with sub-01_dwi.bvec, sub-01_dwi.bval, and sub-01_dwi.json to form a complete set - only then will PyDesigner process the file.

Hello @TheJaeger, thank you for your response , I got the same error while using the sample data from this URL: "https://openneuro.org/datasets/ds004945/versions/1.0.0"
This sample data has all the needed files: sub-01_dwi.bval, sub-01_dwi.bvec, sub-01_dwi.json, sub-01_dwi.nii.
