psdaq-control-minimal

A simple repackaging of the lcls2 daq code at https://github.com/slac-lcls/lcls2 with minimal dependencies needed for controlling the LCLS2 daq from a script, as is done in TMO and RIX's hutch pythons.

This pares down the requirements, unlinks the script entrypoints, and exposes only the psdaq.control submodule.

Requirements

This works with any version of Python >= 3.6.

It requires only pyzmq for communicating with the DAQ, and ophyd and bluesky for hutch python scanning.

Installation

conda install psdaq-control-minimal -c pcds-tag or pip install psdaq-control-minimal

Maintenance

• Create a new tag on this repo that matches a tag on https://github.com/slac-lcls/lcls2/releases to trigger a new build.
• To test a build locally, you must first run ./generate_minimal_package.sh to clone and set up the minimal set of files. If you've already done this before, you must manually clear the old lcls2 and psdaq folders.
