RELION-5 input compatibility

[rdrighetto]

Hi! I just saw the 0.7 release which looks awesome!

I see that output is now compatible with RELION-5, which is great! I was wondering if there are any plans to make input compatible with RELION-5 as well? i.e. one could give a tomograms.star file and pytom-match-pick could figure out tilt angles, defocus per tilt, dose etc from there by itself?

I can make a PR if I ever get there but I won't promise since I am already delayed in delivering the Scipion plugin 😬
Thought it didn't hurt to ask just in case anyone is already planning something similar 😃

Thanks for making an issue about this! It was already on my mind :)

No time to work on it atm, but if I do find time I'll definitely add it.

It attached a tilt-series STAR file here for reference from the RELION-5 beta (weirdly it still says # version 30001 in the header..). I guess a user would still need to provide amplitude contrast, spherical abberation, and voltage as input.

Potentially the CtfMaxResolution could also be exploited although that seems like a bigger project.

That would not be needed if the ReconstructTomograms/jobXXX/tomograms.star file is used instead of the one from the tilt-series.

Attached is the tomograms.star from the same job as the txt above
