spiceitup 1.2.1

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.

- 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 would be also fine)
sudo apt-get install python3-venv
python3 -m venv env
. env/bin/activate

A - Using official package

pip install spiceitup Run with spiceitup

B - Manually from project

B.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

B.2) Run the app

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

B.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

spiceitup: command not found In this case check if spiceitup is here: $(python -m site --user-base)/bin" Then add it to $PATH: export PATH="$PATH:$(python -m site --user-base)/bin" Run again spiceitup

No module spiceitup
In this case you should use a virtual environment (see python virtual environment)

B.4) For developers

• See docs/code_conventions.txt before adding some codes
• Watch logs with watch tail logs/debug.log or logs/show_debug_console.sh
