Package pysynphot :: Module etc

Module etc

Module intended to replace the existing etc interface with the refactored user interface.

Functions

getparms(parlist)
The ETC presently sends along a bunch of information in key-value pairs that pysynphot utterly ignores.

source code

parse_spec(syncommand)
Parse the synphot-classic command and return the resulting spectrum

source code

calcphot(parlist)
Calculate either effstim or efflam, depending on the input argument

source code

calcspec(parlist)
Calculate the spectrum & write it to a FITS file

source code

countrate(parlist)
Return the pivot wavelength and countrate of the spectrum as observed through the obsmode, but based on the native waveset

source code

specrate(parlist)
Return the countrate of the spectrum as observed through the obsmode, based on the binned wavelength set; and write the resulting spectrum to a file, returning the filename.

source code

thermback(parlist)
Return the thermal background rate for the obsmode

source code

updatetabs(dummy)
Check for new GRAPH/COMP/THERM tables

source code

showfiles(parlist)
For debugging: print tmg/tmc/tmt and showfiles to a file for the given obsmode.

source code

Suicide(dummy)
Kill this process

source code

version(dummy)
Return version string stashed in versioninfo.dat

source code

etccalc(obsmode, spectrum, filename=None)

getparms(parlist)

source code

The ETC presently sends along a bunch of information in key-value pairs that pysynphot utterly ignores. This function builds a dictionary from the few elements it actually uses.

showfiles(parlist)

source code

For debugging: print tmg/tmc/tmt and showfiles to a file for the given obsmode.

For nonserver use: foo='showfiles&obsmode="acs,hrc,f555w"&output="testme2.txt"' etc.showfiles(foo.split('&')[1:])
