European Data Format (EDF) conversion

Install NeuroConv with the additional dependencies necessary for reading EDF data.

pip install "neuroconv[edf]"

Convert edf data to NWB using EDFRecordingInterface.

from datetime import datetime
from zoneinfo import ZoneInfo
from pathlib import Path
from neuroconv.datainterfaces import EDFRecordingInterface

file_path = f"{ECEPHY_DATA_PATH}/edf/edf+C.edf"
# Change the file_path to the location in your system
interface = EDFRecordingInterface(file_path=file_path, verbose=False)

# Extract what metadata we can from the source files
metadata = interface.get_metadata()
# For data provenance we add the time zone information to the conversion
session_start_time = datetime(2020, 1, 1, 12, 30, 0, tzinfo=ZoneInfo("US/Pacific"))
metadata["NWBFile"].update(session_start_time=session_start_time)

# Choose a path for saving the nwb file and run the conversion
nwbfile_path = f"{path_to_save_nwbfile}"
interface.run_conversion(nwbfile_path=nwbfile_path, metadata=metadata)
