documentation: can we get an example how to use the add_attr() method?

[georgemarselis-nvi]

In https://sample-sheet.readthedocs.io/quick-start.html#defining-sample-read-structures you mention that

Adding an attribute with spaces must be done with the add_attr() method

can we have an example, please?

I haven not really been maintaining this library especially since Illumina moved to the v2 specification.

There are interesting alternatives now, like:

• https://pypi.org/project/samshee/

Sorry to be a bother! we are still in the stone age and we will not be going to v2 before, dunno, the rapture 😅

thank you for your reply, samshee was not a good fit. You can close this if you want to.

edit: for anybody in the future reading this, the way to do it is

samplesheet.Header['foo bar'] = 'kot', add_attr() returns None in version 0.13.0
