read_nisurface {freesurferformats}

Read a surface, based on the file path without extension.

Description

Tries to read all files which can be constructed from the base path and the given extensions.

Usage

read_nisurface(filepath_noext, extensions = c("", ".asc", ".gii"), ...)

Arguments

filepath_noext

character string, the full path to the input surface file without file extension.

extensions

vector of character strings, the file extensions to try.

...

parameters passed on to read_nisurfacefile. Allows you to set the 'methods'.

Value

an instance of 'fs.surface', read from the file. See read.fs.surface for details. If none of the reader methods succeed, an error is raised.
