filabres

Automatic Data Reduction Pipeline for CAHA data.

Filabres is embedded in a joint effort of the Calar Alto Observatory (especially Santos Pedraz and Jesús Aceituno), the Spanish Virtual Observatory (Enrique Solano, José Manuel Alacid and Miriam Cortés), and the Physics of the Earth and Astrophysics Department at the Universidad Complutense de Madrid (Nicolás Cardiel, Sergio Pascual, Enrique Galcerán and Jaime Hernández), and the collaboration of the Instituto de Física de Cantabria (Maite Ceballos), with the main goal of providing useful reduced images through the Calar Alto Archive hosted at http://caha.sdc.cab.inta-csic.es/calto/.

Although this software package has been initially created with the idea of performing the automatic reduction of direct images obtained with the instrument CAFOS, placed at the 2.2 m telescope of the Calar Alto Observatory, filabres has been designed to allow the future inclusion of additional observing modes and instruments.

Installing the code

In order to keep your current Python installation clean, it is highly recommended to first build a new Python 3 virtual environment.

$ python3 -m venv venv_filabres
$ . venv_filabres/bin/activate
(venv_filabres) $

We recommend installing the latest stable version, which is available via the PyPI respository:

(venv_filabres) $ pip install filabres

The latest development version is available through GitHub:

(venv_filabres) $ pip install git+https://github.com/nicocardiel/filabres.git@main#egg=filabres
