Description: Lightlab
========
A python library for remote laboratory control. Laboratory remoting facilitates experimental research:
* access from anywhere
* large dataset gathering, storage, and analysis
* repeatability
* real-time status and progress monitoring,
* intra- and inter-group collaboration
This package includes:
* A shared library of instrument drivers
* Representation of state for labs of multiple users
* Driver-independent abstractions of instruments
* Utilities for data structures, advanced sweeping, search procedures, spectrum analysis, and characterization
* Constructs of laboratory virtualization for repeatability and rapid user code development
* Detailed documentation of tips, tricks, and instructions for prepping your lab for remoting
Here is our `philosophy <http://lightlab.readthedocs.io/en/development/_static/gettingStarted/engineersGuide.html>`__ of how a modern lab can look.
Installation
------------
From PyPI:
::
pip install lightlab
From source:
::
git clone git@github.com:lightwave-lab/lightlab.git
cd lightlab
make venv
Getting started
---------------
1. Configure GPIB/ethernet communication on an `instrumentation server <http://lightlab.readthedocs.io/en/latest/_static/gettingStarted/sysadmin.html>`__
2. Initialize the representation of your `lab state <http://lightlab.readthedocs.io/en/latest/_static/developers/labState.html>`__
3. `Write a driver <http://lightlab.readthedocs.io/en/latest/_static/tutorials/drivers/drivers.html>`__ or use an existing one
4. Read about advanced features and `tutorials <http://lightlab.readthedocs.io/en/latest/_static/tutorials/index.html>`__
5. Get going!
