Description

We want to open the file from frank lab: https://www.dropbox.com/s/92jkkse2c7lm7qe/bon04.nwb?dl=0.
The file cannot be loaded on pynwb without the extension.

  • Include the extension in nwb explorer. Put it in a folder 'extensions'. All the extensions there are loaded at startup.
  • Fix any other blocking errors
  • Analyse file content and report here

The extension and the source code for the files are here.
Pynwb extension documentation here

Use the pynwb extension documentation to understand the required setup, test loading bon04.nwb, resolve any blocking errors, and report the analyzed file content in the linked spreadsheet.
