[Feature]: Warn to use index argument on call to add_trial (or add_row)
What would you like to see added to PyNWB?
From https://github.com/NeurodataWithoutBorders/helpdesk/discussions/71#discussioncomment-8638454
User was confused by HDMF level error during io.write
. Caused by not declaring a column to be 'indexed' and giving it ragged input across different rows (which worked fine to add to the in-memory NWBFile object)
Is your feature request related to a problem?
No response
What solution would you like?
Warn or error on trying to add the value while still in-memory rather than waiting until writing to disk
Do you have any interest in helping implement the feature?
No.
