Contributing

lsst.obs.lsst is developed at https://github.com/lsst/obs_lsst. You can find Jira issues for this module under the obs_lsst component.

• Adding a new camera
• Testing the Package

Command Line Scripts

generateCamera.py

Generate a camera.yaml file for a camera by assembling descriptions of rafts, sensors, etc.

Because we have many similar cameras, the assembly uses a :-separated search path of directories to find desired information. The _first_ occurrence of a filename is used.

usage: generateCamera.py [-h] [--path PATH] [--verbose] outputFile

positional arguments

outputfile

Name of generated file

options

-h, --help

show this help message and exit

--path <path>

List of directories to search for components

--verbose

How chatty should I be?

rewrite_ts8_qe_files.py

Rewrite native FITS files from the test stand to a standard format

usage: rewrite_ts8_qe_files.py [-h] [--out_root OUT_ROOT] [--valid_start VALID_START] picklefile

positional arguments

picklefile

Pickle file to read.

options

-h, --help

show this help message and exit

--out_root <out_root>

Root directory to which to write outputs

--valid_start <valid_start>

ISO format date string stating the start of the validity range.
