Draft: Create a standard edit_mask function

Valentin Valls requested to merge valentin.valls/bliss:edit-lima-mask into master

This MR provides a standard edit_mask function to allow to setup lima.processing.mask_file with Flint.

For now it is only a feasibility test.

Few questions have to be solved.

  • Technical
    • How to deal with window detector (as the file have to be reachable from windows too)
    • What to do with corrupted files
  • User use case
    • How to deal with masks in BLISS?
    • Is it useful?
    • Where to save the mask if none is yet set?
    • Do we overwrite the current mask file?
    • How to remove the used mask?
    • How to reuse a previous mask?

I think there is many questions relative to the way scientists work, and answers could not be the same.

So I feel like a single command is not really convenient.

But it could be part of a more general dialog to setup a Lima detector, so what it could be easier to adapted the answer. The MR !2816 (merged) could be an interesting entry point.
