starry_night
requires python >= 3.5, we recommend the anaconda distribution as it comes with most requirements preinstalled.
pip install https://github.com/tudo-astroparticlephysics/starry_night/archive/master.tar.gz
Basic usage at night:
starry_night -c [Magic or CTA] --cam -v
to download and see the current all sky camera image. Other options such as --cloudmap
and --response
are available, too.
Option -s
stores images as png file.
Option --help
lists all available comments.
If you dont have an xserver, execute: export MPLBACKEND="agg"
before running starry_night. You will also need -s
option to get output in form of files.
