Auto generate tutorial data

[CodyCBakerPhD]

@garrettmflynn Need your help integrating this with front-end

In the meantime, I'll continue debugging and extend it to multi-subject, multi-session, and multi-probe

[CodyCBakerPhD]

@garrettmflynn Might also need some help getting the test to trigger the endpoint properly, I keep getting a 415 error locally

Getting an error about ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'sklearn'. Are there additional dependencies here that weren't in the repo before?

[CodyCBakerPhD]

Ahhhh, yes sorry - I should have added them to the conda environment files

Through trial and error it will be whatever is needed to succeed with these imports: https://github.com/NeurodataWithoutBorders/nwb-guide/pull/530/files#diff-bfe22e422f7a3669b04d7ddfc8b73491eda63907f0a4da680bb6494f98f15d69R771-R773

Alright, I've updated this PR so that you can generate test data (and, at the same time, a dataset that replicates this data) on the Settings page. I've preemptively removed the Tutorial page since this replaces the data generation features there—though we don't currently have any textual material that replaces the original tutorial.

@CodyCBakerPhD Any suggestions before we merge this in?

Only to have a navigation popup button next to the 'delete' one that leads the user to the generated dataset so that they can see what it looks like after it completes

(I know it automatically pops up such a window when finished generating the first time - fine to keep that - but for renavigation would be nice to also have an easy button; also the initial popup took a while to actually launch on my system)

Also, this PR removes autogeneration of the 'tutorial pipeline' in anticipation of the step-by-step screenshot approach approach, right?

[CodyCBakerPhD]

The delete command triggers a non-meaningful error when it tries to delete the target of the symlinks after the first time it was deleted (I assume that's what's going on); is there a way to 'safely' do that?

I also pushed a fix to the channel lengths on SpikeGLX, can you also run through a full test of a pipeline that uses these data?

Can't get past the SourceData page with this error:

Can you clarify what's triggering this error? Are you generating the dataset, deleting, regenerating, then deleting again? This is just removing the dataset output folder and shouldn't let you press the button without that folder existing.

I've also found a fix for the lack of responsiveness when opening the folder location on Mac. Does this make things faster on your side as well?

Fixed this. Turns out that if I don't delete the data (only the dataset), the previously generated files will not be overwritten?

Mine no longer even opens at all; if possible, could you use the previous method if its Windows and your current method if its Mac?

Can you clarify what's triggering this error?

It was the kind of windows JS popup message that I can't copy/paste; said something about not being able to remove the resources because it didn't exist; I haven't seen it as of the last few commits

[garrettmflynn]

Got it. I've ensured that the directories are only deleted if they exist, so that should solve the latter problem.

As for it not working on Windows, that's quite weird. Can you confirm that starting GUIDE again from the command line doesn't fix the issue? Since the changes were partially implemented on the main Electron process, the app needs to be restarted (which I also didn't notice and thought the system was broken after the initial implementation).

That was it; fully restarting the app fixed the issue

@garrettmflynn This is now working well for me; can you review, try it completely, and approve if happy with it?

[garrettmflynn]

Works great! Let's get this in.
