fsl.utils.tempdir

This module contains utilities for working with temporary files and directories. It currently only contains one function:

tempdir Returns a context manager which creates and returns a temporary directory, and then deletes it on exit.
fsl.utils.tempdir.tempdir(root=None, changeto=True, override=None)[source]

Returns a context manager which creates and returns a temporary directory, and then deletes it on exit.

Parameters:
  • root – If provided, specifies a directroy in which to create the new temporary directory. Otherwise the system default is used (see the tempfile.mkdtemp documentation).
  • changeto – If True (the default), current working directory is set to the new temporary directory before yielding, and restored afterwards.
  • override – Don’t create a temporary directory, but use this one instead. This allows tempdir to be used as a context manager when a temporary directory already exists.
