nwbindexer 0.1.3

Two tools for searching data stored using the NWB (Neurodata Without Borders) format

nwbindexer and search_nwb

This repository contains two tools for searching within NWB (HDF5) files:

• nwbindexer - builds an SQLite database (also called the 'index') containing metadata in a collection of NWB files and and allows searching the metadata in the database.
• search_nwb.py - searches within one or more NWB files directly (without building an index).

A related third tool is the NWB Query Engine. It is at: https://github.com/jezekp/NwbQueryEngine. The two tools in this repository use a query syntax similar to the one used in the NWB Query Engine.
