Package pyana

This package collects code which deals with various aspects of the analysis tasks.

Module event

This module is a collection of classes and methods to deal with the event data and everything related to it.

Class Event

Instance of this class contains all event data.

Construction

Usage: evt = pyana.event.Event(dg)

Creates event object from the corresponding XTC datagram object.

Parameters:

dg – datagram object of type _pdsdata.xtc.Dgram

Method seq()

Usage: s = evt.seq()

Returns _pdsdata.xtc.Seq object, equivalent to dg.seq

Method getTime()

Usage: t = evt.getTime()

Returns _pdsdata.xtc.ClockTime object, equivalent to dg.seq.clock()

Method find()

Usage: objects = evt.find(...)

Returns possibly empty list of data objects contained in the event. This method accepts a number of arguments, but all arguments are optional. If no arguments are given then a list of all data objects is returned. If some arguments are given then only those objects that satisfy a particular criteria are returned. The list of possible keyword arguments:

typeId – accepts one of the xtc.TypeId.Type.<Xxx>, only return objects which have that TypeId
version – accepts number, only return objects whose type version number is equal to number
level – accepts one of xtc.Level.<Xxx> values, only returns objects originated at that level
detector – accepts one of xtc.DetInfo.Detector.<Xxx> values, only returns objects produced by this detector
detId – accepts number, only returns objects produced by this detector ID
device – accepts one of xtc.DetInfo.Device.<Xxx> values, only returns objects produced by this device
devId – accepts number, only returns objects produced by this device ID
address – xtc.DetInfo object or an address string (see User Manual)

The parameters address and any of the detector, detId, device, devId are incompatible, specify only one or another.

Method findFirst()

Usage: object = evt.findFirst(...)

Accepts the same set of arguments as find() methods but instead of list of objects returns fist object found. If no object is satisfying all selection criteria then None is returned.

Method getAcqConfig()

Usage: acqConfig = evt.getAcqConfig(address)

Returns Acqiris configuration data of type acqiris.ConfigV* for specific device. If address given is not very specific then the first matching object is returned.

Parameters:

address – xtc.DetInfo object or an address string (see User Manual)

Ordinary configuration objects are contained in a Configure type datagrams only. For client code that means that this method can be used in beginjob() or beginrun() methods only. Note also that configuration objects are stored in the Pyana environment and preferred way to access configuration information is through the environment. This makes this method of little utility to end users.

Method getOpal1kConfig()

Usage: opalConfig = evt.getOpal1kConfig(address)

Returns Opal1k configuration data of type opal1k.ConfigV* for specific device. If address given is not very specific then the first matching object is returned.

Parameters:

address – xtc.DetInfo object or an address string (see User Manual)

Same caveats apply as for getAcqConfig() method.

Method getAcqValue()

Usage: acqData = evt.getAcqValue(address, channel, env)

Returns Acqiris data object of type acqiris.DataDescV* for specific device and channel. If address given is not very specific then the first matching object is returned.

Parameters:

address – xtc.DetInfo object or an address string (see User Manual)
channel – channel number from 0 to max number of channels
env – environment object containing Acqiris configuration object

Channel number is an integer number, total number of channels can be extracted from the Acqiris configuration object.

Method getPnCcdValue()

Usage: frame = evt.getPnCcdValue(address, env)

returns pnCCD data object of type pnccd.FrameV* for specific device and channel. If address given is not very specific then the first matching object is returned.

Parameters:

address – xtc.DetInfo object or an address string (see User Manual)
env – environment object containing pnCCD configuration object

Method getEBeam()

Usage: obj = evt.getEBeam()

Returns data object of type bld.BldDataEBeam or bld.BldDataEBeamV0 whichever is present in the event.

Class Env

Instance of this class is a container for all sorts of environment data.

Construction

Usage: env = pyana.event.Env(jobName="pyana", hmgr=None, subproc=False)

Creates environment object.

Parameters:

jobName – analysis job name, arbitrary string
hmgr – histogram manager object
subproc – flag which must be set to true when running in pyana sub-process

Objects of this type are created by pyana itself and end users do not need to create new instances.

Method jobName()

Usage: jobName = env.jobName()

Returns analysis job name string.

Method hmgr()

Usage: hmgr = env.hmgr()

Returns histogram manager object of type pyana.histo.HistoManager*.

Method mkfile()

Usage: file = env.mkfile(filename, mode='w', bufsize=-1)

Opens file for writing output data. This is pyana's alternative for Python open() function which supports multi-processing. If user needs the data in this file to be merged with the files produced by other processes then mkfile() has to be used in place of open().

Parameters:

filename – output file name
mode – open mode, currently any "w*" modes are supported
bufsize – output buffer size, default is to use Python's default

In case of single-process job this method is equivalent to a regular Python open() method. In case of multi-processing when this method is called from a sub-process then the file is created somewhere in a temporary location (with unique name). At the end of the job files from all sub-processes are merged into one file with name filename and the temporary files are deleted.

Method epicsStore()

Usage: store = env.epicsStore()

This is the primary method for user code to access EPICS data. It returns event.EpicsStore object which can be used to retrieve the state of the individual EPICS channels.

Module _pdsdata

This is a Python extension module which provides Python interface for all pdsdata classes and functions. It is implemented in C++ and exists as a loadable module (library). The Python classes in this module try to mimic the interfaces and behavior of their corresponding C++ classes as closely as possible. In many cases this is trivial to achieve, but there may be few differences which are noted explicitly in every case. One notable difference is C++ enums which define symbolic names for integral constants. Python emulation of enums is complicated for a number of reasons such as absence of true enum type in Python and dynamic nature of language. The implementation of the enums in Python in this case is done through the introduction of special new type with the static members whose names and values correspond to C++ enums. It is better explained with example. Suppose there is a class in C++:

class DetInfo {
  enum Detector{ NoDetector, AmoIms, AmoGasdet, ... };
};

Then the corresponding construct in Python can be expressed approximately like this:

class DetInfo :
  class Detector (int): 
    NoDetector = Detector(0)
    AmoIms = Detector(1)
    AmoGasdet = Detector(2)

The main difference in use is that in C++ to get enum value one needs to write DetInfo.AmoIms when in Python it needs to be DetInfo.Detector.AmoIms.
