hepevd 0.2.0

Event Display for Particle Physics Data

HepEVD -

A header-only web-based event display for particle physics events.

Look at https://github.com/CrossR/HepEVD/ for more technical details around the underlying C++ library used here, as well as the Javascript code that powers the event display itself.

Installation + Usage

To get the python-bindings for HepEVD, either install the library as a normal python package (pip install HepEVD), or follow the instructions below once fully cloned, to build from source:

./get_extern_deps.sh

# We use a git submodule for nanobind, the Python / C++ bindings library.
git submodule update --init --recursive

# You may want to setup a Python Venv for this first...
# https://docs.python.org/3/library/venv.html
python -m venv .venv
source .venv/bin/activate

# Swap to the Python bindings directory.
cd python_bindings/

# Build and install the bindings...
pip install .

# Test them...
python

$ import HepEVD

TODO

• Add ability to pass over clusters / particles:
  • I.e. groups of hits, and hierarchies of groups of hits
  • Need to work out the best interface for that...
