Hi @samuelgarcia. It'd be cool to do this. We are going to add a few more features / releases over the next month or so then might be in a good state to make this happen.

[samuelgarcia]

OK tell us when there is a releasde on pypi.
Will you add some CLI or is it a pure python interface ?
The old wrapper was done with generating a ".m" file.

[alexmorley]

Will do.

Pure python to start with. NB: there is no CPU-only support right now (like the matlab 2.0 version requires a GPU).

[samuelgarcia]

I can guess so if you use cupy.

I started a wrapper in spikeinterface here SpikeInterface/spikeinterface#95
Note that this wrapper is part of a "big refactoring".
So it is experimental.

The wrapper is simple but I am not yet able to run pyks because of installation problems dur to cuda.
Stuff like that

One question : how is supposed to be the output ?
