Bundle/interface JS validators for bids and zarr

[yarikoptic]

I do not know yet how we can do it in a reasonable fashion, but there are such validators as

• https://github.com/bids-standard/bids-validator for BIDS datasets. Can be ran locally and in a web browser
• https://github.com/ome/ome-ngff-validator for .ome.zarr folders. We have it already integrated at the level of dandiarchive web ui as external service, but then immediately opening first .ome.zarr says that it is not compliant :-/ (didn't investigate further)

Any ideas @jwodder???

the only one which comes to mind is to resort to docker or podman if installed on the system to run them in their containerized versions.

Hi @yarikoptic, we could also contribute to the Python version which is currently being designed. See bids-standard/bids-validator#1825.

Sure, we could... and with majority (if not all) of validation rules now having shifted to BIDS schema, developing it with feature parity to JS one should be feasible but it would still be a huge effort IMHO and would not happen overnight or even over month I think, and I think @effigies is too of an optimist ;)
