loading an mne.Report

Is there any functionality for loading an mne.Report back from html? If not
any thoughts on how pickle would handle it?

Thanks.

no it's not supported.

I don't really see the use case.

can you clarify why you want this?

I was thinking of using mne report as a persistent record of interacting
with a subjects data. More of a lab notebook? entry then a final report.

I'm in the process of designing some analysis pipelines. if an mne report
could be serialized to disk then each step could add to a growing report.
Otherwise i could make a separate report for each step and then combine
them at the end or wait and generate a report once the pipeline is complete.

There are a number of different ways I could go but having a serializable
report would offer some flexibility.

I imagine pickle will work fine but wanted to make sure I wasn't missing an
io method somewhere to reread the HTML back in.

iPython's history and/or notebook features (well, the latter is now
actually "Jupyter") may provide that functionality.

Otherwise, this seems to be exactly what scripts (as opposed to purely
interactive sessions) do.

hi Luke,

not sure how to help. The Report has not been designed for this.

No worries Alex. I just wanted to make sure I wasn't missing something.

For what its worth, the report object (at least relatively simple ones)
seem to serialize fine with pickle.
