  • FileNotFoundError – If path is invalid

  • RuntimeError – If file is not an instance of NWBFile

Methods

__init__(file[, lazy_loading])

clear()

close()

Close the NWB file

copy()

fromkeys(iterable[, value])

get(k[,d])

items()

keys()

pop(k[,d])

If key is not found, d is returned if given, otherwise KeyError is raised.

popitem()

as a 2-tuple; but raise KeyError if D is empty.

setdefault(k[,d])

update([E, ]**F)

If E present and has a .keys() method, does: for k in E: D[k] = E[k] If E present and lacks .keys() method, does: for (k, v) in E: D[k] = v In either case, this is followed by: for k, v in F.items(): D[k] = v

values()

clear() None.  Remove all items from D.#
close()[source]#

Close the NWB file

copy()#
classmethod fromkeys(iterable, value=None)#
get(k[, d]) D[k] if k in D, else d.  d defaults to None.#
items() a set-like object providing a view on D's items#
keys() a set-like object providing a view on D's keys#
pop(k[, d]) v, remove specified key and return the corresponding value.#

If key is not found, d is returned if given, otherwise KeyError is raised.

popitem() (k, v), remove and return some (key, value) pair#

as a 2-tuple; but raise KeyError if D is empty.

setdefault(k[, d]) D.get(k,d), also set D[k]=d if k not in D#
update([E, ]**F) None.  Update D from mapping/iterable E and F.#

If E present and has a .keys() method, does: for k in E: D[k] = E[k] If E present and lacks .keys() method, does: for (k, v) in E: D[k] = v In either case, this is followed by: for k, v in F.items(): D[k] = v

values() an object providing a view on D's values#
