pleque 0.0.4

Python module for an easy work with a tokamak plasma equilibrium.

PLEQUE - PLasma EQUilibrium Enjoyment module [pleɪɡ]

Python module for the simple manipulation with the tokamak plasma equilibrium. For more information see the documentation at https://pleque.readthedocs.io.

Note: The work is still in the early development stage and pleque probably contains bugs. You are very welcome to put a your wishes, found bugs or any other comment as an issue. There also may occur minor changes in code structure before 0.1.0 release.

Getting Started

Prerequisites

The prerequisites should be maintained by pip.

python>=3.5
numpy
scipy
shapely
scikit-image
xarray
pandas
h5py
omas

Installing

From PyPI (https://pypi.org/project/pleque/):

pip install --user pleque

or use the unstable experimental release (probably with more fixed bugs):

 pip install --user -i https://test.pypi.org/simple/ pleque

or clone/copy the github repository and run

git clone https://github.com/kripnerl/pleque.git
cd pleque
pip install --user .

Examples

from pleque.io import readers
import matplotlib as plt

eqdsk_filename = "path_to_my_gfile.gfile"
# Create instance of `Equilibrium` class
eq = readers.read_geqdsk(eqdsk_filename)

# plot simple overview of the equilibrium:
eq.plot_overview()

Some other examples can be found as notebooks in the notebooks folder or in the examples directory.
