Self-driving lab Web UI - lite

We don't define Self-driving labs (SDLs). We enable UI for them. This is the lite version of Hein Lab SDL Web UI

Description

Granting SDL flexibility makes it impossible to design a UI, yet it's a necessity for allowing more people to interact with it. This web UI aims to ease up the control of any Python-based SDLs by displaying functions and parameters dynamically. This lite version allow user to put actions in queue for simply workflow design.

Installation

pip install sdl-webui-lite

Usage

in your self-driving platform class, use start_gui(your_sdl). Example in sample_code.py

sdl = YourSDL()
from sdl_webui_lite.app import start_gui
start_gui(sdl)

Additional settings

You can change the log file name/path, and the current SDL name, as this will reflect on the webapp page and title. You can also add other loggers

sdl = YourSDL()
from sdl_webui_lite.app import app, start_gui
app.config["DEBUG"] = False     # show fucntions startwith "_" if True
app.config["LOG_FILENAME"] = "/path/to/log.log"
app.config["TITLE"] = "Your SDL name"
start_gui(sdl, logger="your logger name")
# or
# start_gui(sdl, logger=["your logger name", "another logger"])
