Installation

You’ll need to install tedana in your python environment. If you already have a python environment and you want to add tedana, type:

pip install tedana

As long as your python environment contains a compatible version of python, this should work.

If you want more control over your environment to ensure that every python dependency is optimized for tedana, you can use a program like conda to create an environment specifically for tedana with:

conda create -n tedenv python=3.12 pip
conda activate tedenv
pip install tedana

The above will create a python environment for tedana called tedenv, and you can enter that environment with conda activate tedenv.

With either of the above methods, pip will install tedana and all its dependencies. tedana’s dependencies are listed here.

Once tedana is installed, there are two ways to run it. You can run tedana, ica_reclassify, and t2smap from the command line interface (CLI). You can see the options for any of these commands using --help (i.e. tedana --help).

You can also import these commands to run within python using:

from tedana.workflows import ica_reclassify_workflow, t2smap_workflow, tedana_workflow

API instructions for running these commands in python are here.

If no error occurs, tedana has correctly installed in your environment!
