Installation

Installation through PyPI

Use standard pip installation:

$ pip install astwro

This also installs astwro.tools command line scripts.

Dependencies

Developed of astwro have been switched to Python 3. Most of the code still works with Python 2, but support for this version will be dropped.

The different submodules have different requirements, the common requirements are:

  • pandas
  • astropy
  • scipy

pydaophot module, and tools that use it, requires the installation of modern Peter B. Stetson’s DAOPHOT package. However, there is no guarantee that yours version will work with pydaophot.

The optimization of PSF stars set using genetic algorithm (astwro.tools.gapick.py tool) uses deap GA package and bitarray.

github Installation

One can also install unreleased version from github
