Data specific components

The nipype tutorial contains data for two subjects.  Subject data
is in two subdirectories, ``s1`` and ``s2``.  Each subject directory
contains four functional volumes: f3.nii, f5.nii, f7.nii, f10.nii. And
one anatomical volume named struct.nii.

Below we set some variables to inform the ``datasource`` about the
layout of our data.  We specify the location of the data, the subject
sub-directories and a dictionary that maps each run to a mnemonic (or
field) for the run type (``struct`` or ``func``).  These fields become
the output fields of the ``datasource`` node in the pipeline.

In the example below, run 'f3' is of type 'func' and gets mapped to a
nifti filename through a template '%s.nii'. So 'f3' would become
'f3.nii'.

Setup the pipeline
------------------

The nodes created above do not describe the flow of data. They merely
describe the parameters used for each function. In this section we
setup the connections between the nodes such that appropriate outputs
from nodes are piped into appropriate inputs of other nodes.

Use the :class:`nipype.pipeline.engine.Pipeline` to create a
graph-based execution pipeline for first level analysis. The config
options tells the pipeline engine to use `workdir` as the disk
location to use when running the processes and keeping their
outputs. The `use_parameterized_dirs` tells the engine to create
sub-directories under `workdir` corresponding to the iterables in the
pipeline. Thus for this pipeline there will be subject specific
sub-directories.

The ``nipype.pipeline.engine.Pipeline.connect`` function creates the
links between the processes, i.e., how data should flow in and out of
the processing nodes.

outputs from the modules above to storage locations. These take the
following form directory_name[.[@]subdir] where parts between [] are
optional. For example 'realign.@mean' below creates a directory called
realign in 'l1output/subject_id/' and stores the mean image output
from the Realign process in the realign directory. If the @ is left
out, then a sub-directory with the name 'mean' would be created and
the mean image would be copied to that directory.
