PySpectra

PySpectra is a graphics library to display 1D and 2D data. It uses pyqtgraph and matplotlib to create the graphical output. The former produces fast graphics the latter hardcopies.

Applications based on PySpectra:

• pyspMonitor.py:
  • listens to a Sardana Door and automatically displays the 1D data. The Door delivers data when Macros are executed on the MacroServer, invoked from spock or by executing runMacro on a Door.

  • receives data and commands sent from the user

• TngGui.py: gives access to various parts of our Tango/Sardana environment

• pyspViewer.py: displays 1D data from ASCII (.fio, .dat, .iint) and .nxs files.

There are other areas of PySpectra applications:

• PySpectra can be imported into any python code to display spectra and images.
  • the display action can be part of the local process or
  • data can be sent via ZMQ to pyspMonitor
• A part of PySpectra is available through ipython magic commands.
