pip install qlcp

Usage:

import qlcp
from qlcp import workmode
import logging

rawd = '/path/to/raw/data/'
redd = '/path/to/reduced/data/'

qlcp.run(
    rawd,                   # raw data directory
    redd,                   # reduced data directory

    aper=[3,5,7,9],         # apertures, up to 9 apertures
    starxy=[                # star positions on base image
