a marslab project
dustgoggles is a multi-featured utility library originally designed to
support other libraries in the marslab ecosystem. It contains a variety of
handy tools for parsing text, manipulating data structures, warping language,
and helping programs remember what they are doing. Highlights include:
composition, a flexible, antiformal domain-specific functional language framework (or, equivalently, a pipeline assembly system)codex, a set of in-memory storage objects to facilitate efficient interprocess communication in idiomatic Python- a family of "dig" functions (in
dustgoggles.structures) that support easy operations on horribly nested mappings (like adictcreated from some horrible JSON returned by someone's very-helpful API)
note: dustgoggles is not a discrete user-facing application. if you're
looking for something like a
planetary data reader or an
image-processing system, you've
found one of its dependencies.
We recommend installing dustgoggles via conda from conda-forge:
conda install -c conda-forge dustgoggles
dustgoggles is also on PyPi and can be installed with pip:
pip install dustgoggles
Installing it from source is also straightforward:
git clone git@github.com:MillionConcepts/dustgoggles.git; cd dustgoggles; pip install -e .
The minimum supported version of Python is 3.9.
Feedback is welcomed and encouraged. Because dustgoggles is a dependency of tactical software for
