Prerequisites
Prior to running Jdaviz as a standalone application, you should:
- Make sure Jdaviz is installed on your system
- Download the data file you want to analyze
Installing the Software
Installation is fairly straightforward using pip. Open a terminal and type:
pip install jdaviz --upgrade
That's all! Once the code has finished executing, you should have a fresh installation on your machine. You may want to familiarize yourself with available commands by entering:
jdaviz --help
Running the Application
To start the application, open a terminal window and enter a command of the following type:
jdaviz [module] [filename]
For example, if we wanted to open jw01023-o015_t002_miri_ch1-short_s3d.fits
using the the Cubeviz module we would enter:
jdaviz cubeviz jw01023-o015_t002_miri_ch1-short_s3d.fits
This will open a window in your default browser that looks like the image in Figure 1.
