- Mirrors the four-class MATLAB symmetry suite added in NDI-matlab
commit 82bb8081 (makeArtifacts + readArtifacts pairs).
- New test files:
tests/symmetry/make_artifacts/session/test_blank_session_rayolab.py
tests/symmetry/read_artifacts/session/test_blank_session_rayolab.py
tests/symmetry/make_artifacts/file/test_rhd_series_navigator.py
tests/symmetry/read_artifacts/file/test_rhd_series_navigator.py
tests/symmetry/make_artifacts/util/test_preferences.py
tests/symmetry/read_artifacts/util/test_preferences.py
tests/symmetry/make_artifacts/util/test_profile.py
tests/symmetry/read_artifacts/util/test_profile.py
- New package __init__.py files for tests/symmetry/{make,read}_artifacts/{file,util}.
- All readArtifacts tests parametrize over matlabArtifacts and
pythonArtifacts roots and pytest.skip the matlab side cleanly when
the matlab pair has not been run.
- Artifact filenames, keys, and JSON layout match the MATLAB pair byte-for-byte
per the bridge yaml contract.
Cross-language notes / observed limitations:
- ndi.preferences in the Python port currently registers only three
Cloud preferences; the make/read pair exercises whatever the live
singleton exposes via list_items() at run time, so adding more
Python preferences later requires no test change.
- ndi.cloud.profile.set_stage only accepts 'prod'/'dev' (matching
MATLAB). The make test mutates the in-memory ProfileEntry directly
to satisfy Stage='test' in the contract, and strips PasswordSecret
before persisting (no secret ever leaves the process).
- ndi.setup.rayolab(session) is a void mutator on the Python side;
the make test passes the session to it and re-opens before export,
matching the MATLAB flow.
The symmetry workflow always checked out NDI-matlab main, which on a feature branch lacks the matching test suite (e.g. the new symmetry make/read packages added on claude/sync-ndi-python-matlab-RqrAe). Try the same branch name as NDI-python first, fall back to main if that matlab branch does not exist.
NDI's user-facing regex syntax is MATLAB regex (documented in the bridge yaml). The Python port must translate matlab patterns to Python re syntax internally. Add ndi.util.matlab_regex with a minimum-viable translator (start/end-of-word boundaries and named groups) plus its own unit tests, and wire it into the file navigator's pattern-compile sites. Fixes the rhd_series_navigator symmetry test which was getting 0 groups because Python re does not understand matlab \>.
Routes every user-pattern compile site in ndi.file.navigator, ndi.file.navigator.epochdir, and ndi.file.navigator.rhd_series through ndi.util.matlab_regex.matlab_to_python_regex so MATLAB \< / \> boundaries and (?<name>...) groups are translated before re.compile. Adds a top-level conventions section to the bridge yaml documenting that user-facing regex is MATLAB syntax. Part of the same change as the matlab_regex converter commit; together they fix the rhd_series_navigator symmetry test (0 -> 2 groups).
Convert the three remaining pattern-compile sites in ndi.file.navigator (find_file_groups, epochprobemapfilename, getepochprobemap) to translate user-supplied MATLAB regex into Python re syntax before re.search. Update the top-level bridge yaml with a conventions section declaring MATLAB regex as the user-facing dialect. Completes the matlab-regex converter wiring; together with the converter and earlier wiring commits the rhd_series_navigator symmetry test now passes (0 -> 2 groups).
Adds a top-level conventions.regex_dialect entry stating that all user-facing NDI regex (file navigator filematch, rhd_series patterns) is MATLAB syntax, translated to Python re by ndi.util.matlab_regex.matlab_to_python_regex at compile time. New code consuming user regex must route through that converter.
The BYOL license guard in tests/_matlab_license_guard.py raises at module-import time when this variable is unset, which collapses pytest collection on the whole `tests/` tree (so all three test (3.x) matrix entries fail before any test runs). The CI cloud test account already has a registered MATLAB license, so destructive tests (DELETE /users/me/matlab-license) must be skipped, not run; set the guard to "true" to enforce that.
Earlier commit set this to "true" (account already has a license, skip destructive tests). Correcting to "false": the CI test account does not have a registered MATLAB license, so the BYOL tests should run and clean up.
Always fails with daq counts (in-memory / after-reload / on-disk JSON) embedded in the assertion message, so the symmetry workflow's captured pytest output tells us whether the 1-vs-2 bug is in lab() creation, disk persistence, or daqsystem_load. Will be deleted once we have the numbers.
The four MATLAB BYOL endpoint wrappers in src/ndi/cloud/api/users.py (getMatlabLicense, allocateMatlabLicenseMac, setMatlabLicense, clearMatlabLicense) advertised a `dict[str, Any]` return type but returned the raw APIResponse from CloudClient. Tests in tests/test_cloud_matlab_license.py assert `isinstance(result, dict)` which broke (APIResponse is not a dict subclass even though it has `.get`). Add a small `_unwrap` helper that extracts the parsed JSON body via APIResponse.data, returning an empty dict for 204 No Content or non-dict bodies.
…stic) Reformats files added in this PR that fell out of conformance with the project's black config (line-length=100). Pure formatting; no behaviour change. Pairs with the earlier class_registry.py and users.py commits.
First-pass diagnostic only scanned for .json files in the session_dir, which returned 0 because the session-dir database is not flat JSON files. The 8 docs are real (database_search saw them) but the JSON detection was looking in the wrong place. v2 iterates the database_search result directly and reports each doc's document_class.class_name + base.name + sections, plus tries daqsystem_load() with no name filter to rule out a regex-match issue.
Single diff vs branch: lines 215-216 of the "requests package is required for login" CloudAuthError message collapse onto one line per CI's black. The local black-26.3.1 on python 3.11 failed its safety check against py3.12 target and skipped this join; rerunning with --fast confirms it.
Calls session._document_to_object(doc) directly on each daqsystem doc (bypassing daqsystem_load's blanket except-Exception-pass) so we see which sub-class lookup actually fails for rayo_stim. Also probes class_registry.get_class for the suspect classes (rayolab_intanseries reader and RayoLabStims metadatareader) so we know if the registry gap is on the daqreader side, the metadatareader side, or both.
Symmetry diagnostic v3 showed daqsystem_load returned 1 of 2 rayolab DAQs because session.daq.system._load_from_document raised "Unknown DAQ reader class: 'ndi.setup.daq.reader.mfdaq.stimulus.rayolab_intanseries'" and daqsystem_load's blanket except-Exception-pass swallowed it. The rayo_stim daqsystem JSON config (ndi_common/daq_systems/rayolab/ rayo_stim.json) references this reader class, but no Python port existed. Mirrors the existing nielsenvisintan stub pattern: subclass ndi.daq.reader.mfdaq.intan, set NDI_DAQREADER_CLASS, register in class_registry. The metadatareader (RayoLabStims) does not need registry entry; daq.system._load_from_document constructs a generic ndi_daq_metadatareader when it cannot resolve the subclass (and the symmetry test only inspects filenavigator, not metadatareader).
Root cause found and fixed (rayolab_intanseries reader was unported); diagnostic no longer needed.
…metry
The previous workflow ran matbox.installRequirements(fullfile(pwd, "tests"))
which reads tests/requirements.txt -- the kitchen-sink list including
ndi-ontology-matlab and openMINDS_MATLAB. Symmetry tests touch neither;
ndi-ontology-matlab additionally has no LICENSE file, which trips
matbox's lookForRepository assert and breaks the CI.
Switch both MATLAB stages to:
- matbox.installRequirements(tests/+ndi/+symmetry/) which reads the
narrow requirements.txt added in NDI-matlab on the matching branch
(only the 6 core deps the symmetry tests transitively need).
- TestSuite.fromFolder(tests/+ndi/+symmetry/+makeArtifacts/) instead
of TestSuite.fromPackage("ndi.symmetry.makeArtifacts"), so tests
are discovered by their on-disk location -- the same convention
ndi-ontology-matlab uses for its own tests.
…ase ndr
The MATLAB readArtifacts(SourceType=pythonArtifacts) symmetry test for
the rayolab blank session failed in
ndi.daq.reader.mfdaq.ndr's constructor:
Unrecognized field name "daqreader_ndr".
because the matlab ndi.setup.daq.reader.mfdaq.stimulus.rayolab_intanseries
inherits from ndi.daq.reader.mfdaq.ndr, whose constructor reads
document_properties.daqreader_ndr.ndr_reader_string. Python's lab.py
only wrote the daq/daqreader_ndr doc shape when the class string was
literally "ndi.daq.reader.mfdaq.ndr"; the rayo_stim subclass fell back
to the bare daq/daqreader doc, which has no daqreader_ndr section.
Switch the doc-shape selector to fire on any NDR-family reader by
also checking for a non-empty DaqReaderFileParameters in the JSON
config (NDR's "reader string"; both rayo_intanSeries and rayo_stim
set this to "intan"). This catches stimulus subclasses without
hard-coding their names.
The CI test matrix runs 3.10, 3.11, and 3.12 in parallel against the SAME shared NDI cloud account. test_allocate_and_clear_lifecycle and test_setMatlabLicense_rejects_invalid_file both allocate then clear a MATLAB license registration; running three of them concurrently races each other's state. Observed on this branch: - 3.11 (commit 0a1d4e5): "MAC mismatch: allocate=...12:59:20:de:7c:9d ... get=...12:32:e3:a1:33:a3..." -- another job cleared and re-allocated between this run's allocate and its get. - 3.10 (commit c2921ad): CloudAPIError HTTP 500 from DELETE /users/me/matlab-license -- another job had already cleared the registration first. Rename _require_no_existing_license -> _require_destructive_safe and add a python-version gate at the top: skip on anything other than 3.12. The read-only test_getMatlabLicense keeps running on every matrix entry so the GET path is still exercised on each interpreter.
…_profile.py Caught by ruff F401 (imported but unused). The test class is plain unittest-style; no fixtures or marks are used so the import never gets referenced.
`.encode("utf-8")` and `.encode()` are equivalent. Ruff's UP012 prefers
the shorter form.
…port Caught by ruff's F401 (imported but unused). PreferenceItem is a plain @DataClass with no field(default_factory=...) usage; `field` was leftover from an earlier draft.
Twice in the same PR an agent (me) pushed code that passed `black` but failed `ruff check` in CI (F401 unused imports + UP012 redundant utf-8 arg). Section 5 already documented "you **must** run black AND ruff" but it was buried below the bridge-contract and technical-constraints sections so it got skipped on a fast read. Add a `> **MANDATORY PRE-PUSH CHECK**` blockquote banner at the very top of the file, plus a cross-reference in Section 2 (Mandatory Knowledge Base) and Section 4 (Technical Constraints). Tighten the pre-push checklist itself to run ruff --fix between two black/ruff passes (since ruff fixes can change line lengths). Add a Common Mistake callout in Section 5 explicitly naming the "only-ran-black-and-pushed" pitfall. Net: a future agent should not be able to miss the lint requirement even on a 5-second scan of the file.
