==== PyDL ==== Introduction ++++++++++++ This package consists of Python_ replacements for functions that are part of the `IDL®`_ built-in library or part of astronomical `IDL®`_ libraries. The emphasis is on reproducing results of the astronomical library functions. Only the bare minimum of `IDL®`_ built-in functions are implemented to support this. There are four astronomical libraries targeted: * idlutils_ : a general suite of tools heavily used by SDSS_. * `Goddard utilities`_ : The `IDL®`_ Astronomy User's Libary, maintained by Wayne Landsman and distributed with idlutils_. * idlspec2d_ : tools for working with SDSS_, BOSS_ and eBOSS_ spectroscopic data. * photoop_ : tools for working with SDSS_ imaging data. This package affiliated with the astropy_ project and is registered with PyPI_. IDL® is a registered trademark of `NV5 Geospatial`_. Components ++++++++++ Most of the functionality of PyDL is in sub-packages. .. toctree:: :maxdepth: 1 pydlutils.rst goddard.rst pydlspec2d.rst photoop.rst Other Notes +++++++++++ .. toctree:: :maxdepth: 1 templates.rst window.rst changes.rst todo.rst credits.rst licenses.rst Base API ++++++++ .. automodapi:: pydl :no-inheritance-diagram: .. _Python: https://www.python.org .. _`IDL®`: https://www.nv5geospatialsoftware.com/Products/IDL .. _idlutils: https://www.sdss4.org/dr16/software/idlutils/ .. _SDSS: https://www.sdss.org .. _`Goddard utilities`: https://idlastro.gsfc.nasa.gov/ .. _idlspec2d: https://svn.sdss.org/public/repo/eboss/idlspec2d/trunk/ .. _BOSS: https://www.sdss4.org/surveys/boss/ .. _eBOSS: https://www.sdss4.org/surveys/eboss/ .. _photoop: https://svn.sdss.org/public/repo/sdss/photoop/trunk/ .. .. _astropy: http://www.astropy.org .. _PyPI: https://pypi.org/project/pydl/ .. _`PyDL on Read the Docs`: https://pydl.readthedocs.io/en/latest/ .. _SDSS-III: http://www.sdss3.org .. _`svn repository`: https://www.sdss4.org/dr16/software/products/ .. _GitHub: https://github.com .. _`NV5 Geospatial`: https://www.nv5geospatialsoftware.com/
