resolves symlinks to .git/annex/-ed content #39

yarikoptic · 2022-03-18T16:19:26Z

user reported that when opening a git-annex'ed file, mricrogl shows the filename of the resolved file which is a long git-annex key:

I wonder if there could be an option to avoid resolving symlinks either globally or for specific files? Thanks in advance!

neurolabusc · 2022-03-21T13:10:05Z

@yarikoptic can you provide a simple demo of this issue. Is the filename provided by a Python script running inside MRIcroGL, or from an external source (drag and drop, command line call). I wonder if it is the operating system itself that is resolving the filenames, hiding the symlink name from the user and MRIcroGL. macOS graphical applications must live in a sandbox, and the OS tends to be pretty explicit about filenames to protect the user from phishing exploits.

install datalad

datalad install ///openneuro/ds000001
cd ds000001
datalad get sub-0[12]/anat/*T1w*nii.gz
mricrogl sub-0[12]/anat/*T1w*nii.gz

on OSX or linux (on windows you would not get symlinks) although could not try with my half-built mricrogl, but I believe it would reproduce . May be @jungheejung would provide a screenshot later on from OSX

yarikoptic · 2022-04-08T15:58:43Z

ha -- apparently the reproducer I had in mind didn't reproduce. @jungheejung reproduced by

open mricrogl in finder
it came up with mni152 already
then clicked on "Add overlay" in the menu, and selected one of those files from the example above -- and she reproduced the image.

@yarikoptic I am unable to replicate on my ARM based M1 MacBook. I can not install datalad. The simple brew install datalad failed which suggested I should run brew install --build-from-source datalad which failed and suggested I should try brew install --build-from-source git-annex which seems to have been stuck at the same point for a tremendously long time:

I suggest we defer this issue a bit until the datalad team supports the latest Macs. I do think that this is not an issue with MRIcroGL, but rather the way the operating system resolves names for the user.

yarikoptic · 2022-04-08T21:53:26Z

Thanks for trying ! Unfortunately indeed there is a problem building git-annex on M1 datalad/datalad#5701 and thus we lack builds for it at datalad/git-annex#61 . I bet we could easily reproduce it without involving git-annex/datalad by simply symlinking some file manually and seeing what name mricrogl would use (original one of symlink or the target one it points to). I will try in our next interactive session with @jungheejung .

yarikoptic · 2022-04-19T20:03:44Z

BTW @neurolabusc -- rosetta is the quick workaround for now on how to make git-annex available on M1. Some instructions are at https://github.com/fraimondo/csguide-hands-on#problem-3--git-annex-on-m1-mac and our datalad-installer would install rosetta on such beasts. I have tested on our m1 instance -- seems to work nicely.

neurolabusc · 2022-09-03T12:42:21Z

@yarikoptic I have not forgotten this. I am still unable to install the datalad on my computer.

what if you do not try to --build-from-source ? IIRC it was just a matter of /usr/sbin/softwareupdate --install-rosetta --agree-to-license and then installing .dmg. At least that is what I did and what is described in that URL I referred and I believe what https://github.com/datalad/datalad-installer/blob/master/src/datalad_installer.py would do for you if you run it as python datalad_installer.py git-annex --method=dmg --path=PATH_TO_DMG where dmg you can get from https://github.com/datalad/git-annex/releases/tag/10.20220822

neurolabusc · 2022-09-07T12:57:21Z

@yarikoptic what .dmg are you referring to? The installer does not include a dmg file?

you can download dmg from https://github.com/datalad/git-annex/releases/tag/10.20220822 . I believe that datalad_installer git-annex -m datalad/git-annex:release would do that for you.

I think this is relevant. No override appears on theSecurity and Privacy Systems Preferences panel.

While one user reported that --build-from-source worked for them, it is noted that compiler version matters and it did not work for me with clang 12.0.5 (others suggest using LLVM/Clang 12 over 13).

did that resolve the issue so that you could run installed git annex or not?

neurolabusc · 2022-09-07T14:41:19Z

No, installing the dmg leads to the no suitable image found error. Attempting to install from source leads to a ghc: could not execute: opt, presumably since the Apple Clang/LLVM installation does not include that optimizer.

yarikoptic · 2023-11-24T20:33:15Z

Hi @neurolabusc - was it addressed somehow?

neurolabusc · 2023-11-24T21:46:03Z

I do not have experience with datalad to resolve this. MRIcroGL is reporting the file name provided by the file system. Feel free to provide a PR if you wish.
