| output.directory | string | | | Full path to the directory to which all output files will be written. If unset, the directory of the input data cube will be used by default. |
| output.filename | string | | | File name to be used as the template for all output files. For example, if `output.filename = my_data` then the output files will be named `my_data_cat.xml`, `my_data_mom0.fits`, etc. If unset then the name of the input data cube will be used as the file name template by default. |
| output.marginAperSpec | int | ≥0 | 10 | Padding (in channels) to be added to either side of the aperture spectrum produced by SoFiA. The aperture spectrum will be automatically truncated at the spectral boundaries of the cube if the margin is chosen too large. |
| output.marginAperSpec | int | ≥-1 | -1 | If positive, padding (in channels) to be added to either side of the aperture spectrum. The default is `-1` which automatically sets the padding to the size of the source bounding box along the spectral axis (but at least 10 channels) such that the spectral profile of each source occupies exactly one third of the spectrum. The aperture spectrum will be automatically truncated at the spectral boundaries of the cube if the margin is too large. |
| output.marginCubelets | int | ≥ 0 | 10 | Padding (in pixels) around detections to be added when creating cubelets, moment maps and spectra of individual sources. The same margin will be applied to all axes of the cube. A value of 0 will create tight cutouts without any extra padding, thus minimising file sizes. The default is 10 pixels/channels. |
| output.overwrite | bool | true, false | true | If `true` then existing output files will be overwritten without warning. If `false` then SoFiA will refuse to run if any of the output files and directories to be created already exists. |
| output.showPreviewImage | bool | true, false | false | If set to `true` and the generation of moment maps is also enabled (option `output.writeMoments`) then SoFiA will display a low-resolution preview image of the moment-0 map of all detections in the terminal. Note that this will only work in modern terminals with full Unicode and 24-bit true-colour support. The image may not be displayed correctly in other terminals. Mac OS users will need to use either xterm with the `-en UTF-8` option or iTerm2 to correctly show the image, as the standard Mac OS terminal has no true-colour support. Due to limited terminal support, the display of preview images is disabled by default. |
