[Feature]: Add default and customizable configuration for dataset chunking

Open ehennestad opened this issue 1 year ago • 0 comments

What would you like to see added to MatNWB?

  • A default set of chunking options that can be customised for individual NWB types
  • Utility function for applying the default chunking options to an NWB file

Should not apply default chunking options to datasets where chunking options are set manually by the user.
