INtegrated DIagnostiC Analysis

InDiCA

InDiCA (Integrated DiagnostiC Analysis) is a tool which allows to perform and combine the analysis of a large number of different diagnostics from Magnetic Confined Fusion (MCF) plasma devices. It will consist of a library of functions to analyse different diagnostic systems under a common framework, and a set of workflows to combine these measurements.

The overall design work has been completed and the general functionality implemented, but the library is still under active development.

Creation of development environment

1. Upgrade pip:

   • pip install --upgrade pip

2. Create a virtual environment with python 3.11 and activate it, e.g. using conda:

   • set_global_conda
   • conda create --name ENV_NAME python=3.11
   • conda activate ENV_NAME

3. Install poetry and environment dependencies:

   • pip install poetry==1.7
   • poetry install

4. For mdsplus building and installation, e.g. from a local mdsplus directory:

   • cp -r /usr/local/mdsplus/mdsobjects/python mdsPython
   • cd mdsPython
   • python setup.py build
   • python setup.py install
   • cd ../
   • rm -r mdsPython
