feat: continuous recording (resilient against failing streams) #139

Closed ErikBjare closed 3 years ago

This might be of interest to you @JohnGriffiths

Note: not actually 'continuous', it just saves every 10s. Ideally, it'd append rows into the CSV file instead of rewriting the entire file (but since a DataFrame is used this would require more extensive rewriting).

TODO

[x] Needs rebasing on upstream (remove unrelated commits)
[x] Needs testing
[x] Changes by black should be applied in separate commit, or skipped altogether
[x] Don't write the entire file every time

For appending, all you'd need to do is check if the file already exists and continuous mode is on. If so, use kwargs mode='a', header=False in the call to to_csv()

Just finished this up with the additional comment from @sjawhar.

Works great now, ready for merge! (plz review @jdpigeon)

Awesome. Thanks so much for this. Our original implementation was really quite shaky for collecting longer sessions.
