Add validator check for hidden directories #951

Open ckrountree opened 4 years ago

ckrountree commented 4 years ago

As per Franklin Feingold: this would be extending the validator to raise an error for hidden directories in the data structure

NOTE: moved this ticket from the OpenNeuro repo (https://github.com/OpenNeuroOrg/openneuro/issues/1412) to the Bids validator repo.

I think that also hidden files are currently not checked for, see https://neurostars.org/t/behavior-metadata-without-tsv-event-data-related-to-a-neuroimaging-data/6768/9?u=sappelhoff

I could now have my bids directory with a .myrandom_garbage.stuff file in there and the validator would permit that.
