spiceitup 1.0.0

Quicklook tool for level 2 SPICE imaging

SPICE data quicklook in PyQt5 / PyQtGraph

This graphical user interface (GUI) allows you to have a quick look in the SPICE data (provide level 2 '.fits' files in input). You will be able to navigate dynamically in the data thanks to sliders which update the maps I(x,y) ; I(lambda,y), the curve I(lambda) and more.

Also, you can draw a gaussian fit on the profile I(lambda) and generate the maps related to the gaussian parameters.

- Windows installation (using Pycharm)

Please take a look at the documentation: windows_installation.pdf

- Linux installation

0) If you don't already have a python3/pip3 environment:

sudo apt-get install build-essential libssl-dev libffi-dev python-dev
sudo apt install python3-pip

Optional: install and run a virtual env (an IDE like pycharm could do it instead)
sudo apt-get install python3-venv
python3 -m venv env
. env/bin/activate

1) Install the requirements

pip install -r requirements.txt
Think to upgrade numpy to > 1.20 for nanpercentile usage. (Then reboot your IDE)
pip install numpy --upgrade

2) Run the app

python3 run.py or use an IDE like pycharm (which will install the requirements automatically), open this folder as a project and run run.py

3) Troubleshooting

Error known: "qt.qpa.plugin: Could not load the Qt platform plugin "xcb" in "" even though it was found. [...] Aborted (core dumped)"
In this case, try to do: sudo apt-get install --reinstall libxcb-xinerama0
