Register an Atlas Spec — register

Adds (or replaces) an entry in the internal atlas registry.

Usage

register_atlas(
  id,
  label,
  family,
  loader,
  default_space = NA_character_,
  representation = c("volume", "surface", "derived"),
  aliases = character(),
  description = NA_character_
)

Arguments

id: Canonical atlas id (character scalar).
label: Human-readable label.
family: Atlas family (e.g. `"schaefer"`, `"glasser"`).
loader: Name of the loader function (character scalar); resolved via [getExportedValue()] / [get()] at dispatch time.
default_space: Default template space the loader returns when given no explicit `outspace` argument.
representation: One of `"volume"`, `"surface"`, or `"derived"`.
aliases: Optional character vector of accepted aliases.
description: Optional free-text description.

Value

Invisibly, the spec list.

Details

Registered as an internal helper — external packages that want to plug a new atlas into [get_atlas()] dispatch can call this from their `.onLoad()` hook.
