Relate a Simulation to the SimulatableExtracellularRecordingArray(s) it records with

[james-isbister]

One or multiple SimulatableExtracellularRecordingArray entities can be used by a Simulation

The Simulation should represent which SimulatableExtracellularRecordingArray entities it uses so that entitysdk.stage_simulation can appropriately stage the electrode_array_weight_matrix asset of these SimulatableExtracellularRecordingArray entities.

Each array entity will be used in one or multiple sonata report blocks, meaning that we will also need a mechanism to make the correct correspondence .

This information is in the obi-one simulation config (which could therefore be used in the staging function), but we could also put information into the stored simulation_config which helps us make this association, such as the entityid of the SimulatableExtracellularRecordingArray in the electrode_file entry of the sonata config

The Simulation should represent which SimulatableExtracellularRecordingArray entities it uses so that entitysdk.stage_simulation can appropriately stage the electrode_array_weight_matrix asset of these SimulatableExtracellularRecordingArray entities.

Shall we add a new relationship, e.g. recording_arrays in the Simulation entity? One question that arises however from this is if we plan to move to a generic TaskConfig for simulation. If we do, adding columns might not be the right direction.

Each array entity will be used in one or multiple sonata report blocks, meaning that we will also need a mechanism to make the correct correspondence .

Could you provide a small example perhaps of that information and how is it expected to be used in staging?

recording_arrays relationship is added in entitycore and will be deployed to staging with next release. The staging logic in entitysdk is here: openbraininstitute/entitysdk#262
