Added

  • CCF locations for ecephys neuropixels electrodes have been added to their respective nwb electrodes tables
  • Examples for accessing eye tracking ellipse fit and screen gaze location data have been added to ecephys example notebooks

Changed

  • pynwb and hdmf version pinning has been relaxed
  • The organization of data for ecephys neuropixels Neurodata Without Borders (NWB) files has been significantly changed to conform with NWB specifications and best practices

Important Note:
Due to newer versions of pynwb/hdmf having issues reading previously released Visual Coding Neuropixels NWB files and due to the significant reorganization of their NWB file contents, this release contains breaking changes that necessitate a major version revision. NWB files released prior to 6/11/2020 are not guaranteed to work with the 2.0.0 version of AllenSDK. If you cannot or choose not to re-download the updated NWB files, you can continue using a prior version of AllenSDK (< 2.0.0) to access them. However, no further features or bugfixes for AllenSDK (< 2.0.0) are planned.

Data released for other projects (Cell Types, Mouse Connectivity, etc.) are NOT affected and will NOT need to be re-downloaded

Addendum:
Please note that when getting Visual Coding Neuropixels stimulus presentations for this new version of AllenSDK that some columns have been removed due to their uninformative or superfluous nature.

# The `colorSpace`, `depth`, `interpolate`, `pos`, `rgbPedestal`,
# `tex`, `texRes`, `flipHoriz`, `flipVert`, `rgb`, `signalDots`
# are now omitted in the stimulus table.
