Silx and BLISS 1st meeting

  • Plotting tool:
    • an external program that listens to BLISS sessions
    • BLISS that emits events to do actions
  • the plot tool is started from BLISS command line
    • there is a function in BLISS library that makes a subprocess to start the tool
    • "communication" shell -> GUI to be based on a standard protocol (zerorpc ?)
      • to send scan data node object for current scan: plot tool will need to import bliss.data
      • to ask for point selection, or other requests for user with the interactive plotting tool; example from matlab: ginput(nb_points_to_be_selected)
  • scans display
    • plotselect: function to specify which counters to display
    • the HDF5 file should define one NXData per plot, to have a default selection for users when opening data file
  • sending a plot
    • tell plotting tool to display numpy array, sent via RPC protocol
  • plot function
    • from a scan object, retrieve corresponding 'plot' proxy/placeholder
    • commands can be sent through an API (via RPC protocol)
    • if no scan object is provided, a default plot is created
      • need for plot 0D, 1D, 2D
    • scatter plot (for meshes)
