[Documentation]: request: tutorial on editing NWB files
What would you like changed or added to the documentation and why?
I'd like a tutorial that steps the user through the different use-cases of how to edit an NWB file.
- changing the value of a dataset
- changing the value of an attribute
- overwriting a dataset
- anything else
Do you have any interest in helping write or edit the documentation?
Yes.
Code of Conduct
- [X] I agree to follow this project's Code of Conduct
- [X] Have you checked the Contributing document?
- [X] Have you ensured this change was not already requested?
Agreed. I'll take this on because I would also like this clearly demonstrated.
@bendichter What about an expansion to the export tutorial? @rly Thoughts?
I agree - this is important.
Because I was curious about attributes, I did some tests here a little bit ago: https://gist.github.com/rly/be7bee420b482b9ddcd084f57cc4115e
I think this could expand the export tutorial but should be structured like @bendichter mentions. A user comes in and wants to change X. They should be able to scan through a table of contents and get to a section that tells them exactly what they should do.
