When not using the EPICS Area Detector HDF5 File Writing Plugin to write
area detector data into a NeXus file, our USAXS instrument uses custom
Python code and the h5py package to write NeXus files.

From python, nexpy (https://github.com/nexpy/nexpy) is very useful
for working with nexus data, either from plain python programs, or
from its very nice GUI. You can also sort of "roll your own" by using
HDF5 + the nexus conventions. That's probably not "recommended", but
it can work in a pinch.
The NeXus International Advisory Committee advises to use the NAPI
support library when writing NeXus data files. But when the NIAC
members were asked who among them uses the NAPI, the response was less
than half. Thus, there are code examples for NAPI and non-NAPI file
writers here:

For Python, see this page:
http://download.nexusformat.org/doc/html/examples/h5py/index.html
Use any software you wish to write a NeXus HDF5 data file. The
documentation is the "NeXus: User Manual"
(http://download.nexusformat.org/doc/html/user_manual.html).
There are programs to check if a given data file passes validation. See
this page for the list from NeXus:
http://download.nexusformat.org/doc/html/validation.html ; As its author,
I suggest you try the punx program if you wish to validate your data files.
Thank you for te references!
