Remi Detector Calculation for Monitoring Electrons

GUI tool to simulate Reaction Microscope detector images.

Example Outputs

Usage

With uv (recommended)

[!WARNING] You currently have to use your system python with included tkinter library (e.g. apt install python3-tk). uv apparently can not bring a working tk library. (Until https://github.com/astral-sh/python-build-standalone/pull/676 is merged) If you can not get tk to run, you can try to follow the "For developers" section. You would notice something like ImportError: module '_tkinter' has no attribute '__file__'.

Try out with temporary python environment:

uvx redcamel

Permanently install in isolated python environment:

uv tool install redcamel

Run:

redcamel

Upgrade

uv tool upgrade redcamel

uv can be found here: https://docs.astral.sh/uv/getting-started/installation/

For developers

First get the repository

git clone https://codeberg.org/FlashREMI/RedCamel.git

or if you have an codeberg.org account with an ssh key set up:

git clone ssh://[e-mail]/FlashREMI/RedCamel.git

Then work inside the RedCamel folder. uv or pixi will find their configuration files there.

Usage with uv

uv run redcamel

uv can be found here: https://docs.astral.sh/uv/getting-started/installation/

Usage with pixi

[!TIP] pixi / the conda-forge python distribution actually includes tk libraries so you do not need installed system tk :)

pixi run redcamel

pixi can be found here: https://pixi.sh/latest/#installation
