AttributeError: type object 'Path' has no attribute 'home'

I've pip3 installed niicat on my Ubuntu 18 machine, but I am having trouble running it.

$ niicat t1.nii.gz 
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/local/lib/python3.6/dist-packages/niicat/resources/niipre.py", line 17, in <module>
    home = str(Path.home())
AttributeError: type object 'Path' has no attribute 'home'

I am using

$ python3 --version
Python 3.6.8

Cool project!

I can not reproduce this error. Seems a bit strange. However, it turned out that Path.home() was not needed. I refactored the code, so now it should work without. If you upgrade to the newest version does it work?

Now I am seeing this

  File "/usr/local/lib/python3.6/dist-packages/niicat/resources/niipre.py", line 195, in <module>
    plt.savefig(sys.stdout.buffer, dpi=120)
AttributeError: 'file' object has no attribute 'buffer'

Also, I don't think my terminal supports sixel.. I really don't know how to enable it actually. Which terminal are you using?

[wasserth]

I am using iterm2 (v 3.3.6). That works fine. The libsixel readme contains a list of all compatible terminals.

Ok thanks. I've tried xterm -ti vt340 on Ubuntu 18 and 19 and it seems work! Although.. the image quality isn't too great (I think the issue is with xterm..)

By the way, here is the ascii (img2txt/utf8) rendering of the same image.

As long as I keep the font size small, it looks somewhat decent.. ?

For me the image quality is a lot better. It might depend on the sixel implementation of the terminal.
