Software¶

Required Software to Run Pipeline stand-alone¶

• It is strongly advised to install this software via package managers, and not from source, particularly HDF5 and pytables.
  • macports for mac
  • apt-get for Linux

• Python 2.7 (e.g., EPD or via Macports)
  • Numpy
  • Matplotlib
  • Pytables (http://www.pytables.org/moin)
  • sys
  • pyephem
  • scipy
  • yaml
  • sqlalchemy
  • esutil for reading FITS files very fast (http://code.google.com/p/esutil/)
  • psutil for measuring memory usage.

• HDF5 version 1.6 and higher (http://www.hdfgroup.org/HDF5/release/obtain5.html)
• SVN command line (there are GUIs that may be helpful, but are not necessary)

Linux¶

apt-get update
apt-get install python-tables python-psutil python-numpy python-scipy python-matplotlib python-yaml python-pip python-sqlalchemy python-shapely python-pyfits
pip install asciitable pyephem

This should install all necessary packages on a recent (12.10) ubuntu.

Recommended Software to Run Pipeline¶

• Versions or TortoiseSVN for SVN
• kcacegrind for profiling
