Module iraffunctions

source code

module iraffunctions.py -- IRAF emulation tasks and functions

This is not usually used directly -- the relevant public classes and functions get included in iraf.py. The implementations are kept here to avoid possible problems with name conflicts in iraf.py (which is the home for all the IRAF task and package names.) Private routines have names beginning with '_' and do not get imported by the iraf module.

The exception is that iraffunctions can be used directly for modules that must be compiled and executed early, before the pyraf module initialization is complete.

Function Details [hide private]

setVerbose(value=1, **kw)

source code 

Set verbosity level when running tasks. Level 0 (default) prints almost nothing. Level 1 prints warnings. Level 2 prints info on progress. This accepts **kw so it can be used on the PyRAF command-line. This cannot avail itself of the decorator which wraps redirProcess since it needs to be defined here up front.

saveToFile(savefile, **kw)

source code 

Save IRAF environment to pickle file

savefile may be a filename or a file handle. Set clobber keyword (or CL environment variable) to overwrite an existing file.

handleRedirAndSaveKwds(target)

source code 

This decorator is used to consolidate repeated code used in command-line functions, concerning standard pipe redirection. Typical 'target' functions will: take 0 or more positional arguments, take NO keyword args (except redir's & _save), and return nothing.

handleRedirAndSaveKwdsPlus(target)

source code 

This decorator is used to consolidate repeated code used in command-line functions, concerning standard pipe redirection. Typical 'target' functions will: take 0 or more positional arguments, take AT LEAST ONE keyword arg (not including redir's & _save), and return nothing.

getTask(taskname, found=0)

source code 

Find an IRAF task by name using minimum match

Returns an IrafTask object. Name may be either fully qualified (package.taskname) or just the taskname. taskname is also allowed to be an IrafTask object, in which case it is simply returned. Does minimum match to allow abbreviated names. If found is set, returns None when task is not found; default is to raise exception if task is not found.

getPkg(pkgname, found=0)

source code 

Find an IRAF package by name using minimum match

Returns an IrafPkg object. pkgname is also allowed to be an IrafPkg object, in which case it is simply returned. If found is set, returns None when package is not found; default is to raise exception if package is not found.

listAll(*args, **kw)

source code 

List IRAF packages, tasks, and variables

Decorators:
  • @handleRedirAndSaveKwds

listPkgs(*args, **kw)

source code 

List IRAF packages

Decorators:
  • @handleRedirAndSaveKwds

Decorators:
  • @handleRedirAndSaveKwdsPlus

listCurrent(*args, **kw)

source code 

List IRAF tasks in current package (equivalent to '?' in the cl) If parameter n is specified, lists n most recent packages.

Decorators:
  • @handleRedirAndSaveKwds

listVars(*args, **kw)

source code 

List IRAF variables

Decorators:
  • @handleRedirAndSaveKwdsPlus

  • @handleRedirAndSaveKwds

whereis(*args, **kw)

source code 

Emulate the whereis function in IRAF.

Decorators:
  • @handleRedirAndSaveKwds

clParGet(paramname, pkg=None, native=1, mode=None, prompt=1)

source code 

Return value of IRAF parameter

Parameter can be a cl task parameter, a package parameter for any loaded package, or a fully qualified (task.param) parameter from any known task.

strstr(str1, str2)

source code 

Search for first occurrence of 'str1' in 'str2', returns index of the start of 'str1' or zero if not found. IRAF 1-based indexing

strlstr(str1, str2)

source code 

Search for last occurrence of 'str1' in 'str2', returns index of the start of 'str1' or zero if not found. IRAF 1-based indexing

radix(value, base=10, length=0)

source code 

Convert integer value to string expressed using given base

If length is given, field is padded with leading zeros to reach length. Note that if value is negative, this routine returns the actual bit-pattern of the twos-complement integer (even for base 10) rather than a signed value. This is consistent with IRAF's behavior.

sin(value)

source code 

Trigonometric sine function. Input in radians.

asin(value)

Number of decimal places on seconds is set by digits. If seconds is false, prints just d:m.m (omits seconds).

fp_equal(x, y)

source code 

Floating point compare to within machine precision. This logic is taken directly from IRAF's fp_equald function.

_fp_norm(x)

source code 

Normalize a floating point number x to the value normx, in the range [1-10). expon is returned such that: x = normx * (10.0 ** expon) This logic is taken directly from IRAF's fp_normd function.

_imextn()

source code 

Returns list of image types and extensions

The return value is (ktype, globlist) where ktype is the image kernel (oif, fxf, etc.) and globlist is a list of glob-style patterns that match extensions.

_checkext(ext, extlist)

source code 

Returns image type if ext is in extlist, else returns None

Assumes ext starts with a '.' (as returned by os.path.split) and that null extensions can't match.

fscan function sets parameters from a string or list parameter

Uses local dictionary (passed as first argument) to set variables specified by list of following names. (This is a bit messy, but it is by far the cleanest approach I've thought of. I'm literally using call-by-name for these variables.)

Accepts an additional keyword argument strconv with names of conversion functions for each argument in namelist.

Returns number of arguments set to new values, which may be fewer than the number of variables if an unexpected character is encountered in 'line'. If there are too few space-delimited arguments on the input line, it does not set all the arguments. Returns EOF on end-of-file.

fscanf(locals, line, format, *namelist, **kw)

source code 

fscanf function sets parameters from a string/list parameter with format

Implementation is similar to fscan but is a bit simpler because special struct handling is not needed. Does not allow strconv keyword.

Returns number of arguments set to new values, which may be fewer than the number of variables if an unexpected character is encountered in 'line'. If there are too few space-delimited arguments on the input line, it does not set all the arguments. Returns EOF on end-of-file.

_isStruct(locals, name, checklegal=0)

source code 

Returns true if the variable `name' is of type struct

If checklegal is true, returns true only if variable is struct and does not currently have a legal value.

scan(locals, *namelist, **kw)

source code 

Scan function sets parameters from line read from stdin

This can be used either as a function or as a task (it accepts redirection and the _save keyword.)

scanf(locals, format, *namelist, **kw)

source code 

Formatted scan function sets parameters from line read from stdin

This can be used either as a function or as a task (it accepts redirection and the _save keyword.)

unset(*args, **kw)

source code 

Unset IRAF environment variables. This is not a standard IRAF task, but it is obviously useful. It makes the resulting variables undefined. It silently ignores variables that are not defined. It does not change the os environment variables.

Decorators:
  • @handleRedirAndSaveKwdsPlus

history(*args, **kw)

source code 

Print history. Does not replicate the IRAF behavior of changing default number of lines to print. (That seems fairly useless to me.)

_clProcedure(*args, **kw)

source code 

Core function for the CL task

Gets passed to IrafPythonTask as function argument. Note I/O redirection has already been set up before calling this.

clProcedure(input=None, mode='', DOLLARnargs=0, **kw)

source code 

Run CL commands from a file (cl < input) -- OBSOLETE

This is obsolete, replaced by the IrafPythonTask version of the cl, using above _clProcedure function. It is being retained only for backward compatibility since translated versions of CL scripts could use it. New versions will not use it. Also, this cannot use handleRedirAndSaveKwds.

hidetask(*args, **kw)

source code 

Hide the CL task in package listings

Decorators:
  • @handleRedirAndSaveKwds

task(*args, **kw)

source code 

Define IRAF tasks

Decorators:
  • @handleRedirAndSaveKwdsPlus

package(pkgname=None, bin=None, PkgName='', PkgBinary='', **kw)

source code 

Define IRAF package, returning tuple with new package name and binary

PkgName, PkgBinary are old default values. If Stdout=1 is specified, returns output as string array (normal task behavior) instead of returning PkgName, PkgBinary. This inconsistency is necessary to replicate the inconsistent behavior of the package command in IRAF.

clPrint(*args, **kw)

source code 

CL print command -- emulates CL spacing and uses redirection keywords

Decorators:
  • @handleRedirAndSaveKwds

printf(*args, **kw)

source code 

Go back to previous working directory

Decorators:
  • @handleRedirAndSaveKwds

Expand(instring, noerror=0)

source code 

Expand a string with embedded IRAF variables (IRAF virtual filename)

Allows comma-separated lists. Also uses os.path.expanduser to replace '~' symbols. Set noerror flag to silently replace undefined variables with just the variable name or null (so Expand('abc$def') = 'abcdef' and Expand('(abc)def') = 'def'). This is the IRAF behavior, though it is confusing and hides errors.

IrafTaskFactory(prefix='', taskname=None, suffix='', value=None, pkgname=None, pkgbinary=None, redefine=0, function=None)

source code 

Returns a new or existing IrafTask, IrafPset, or IrafPkg object

Type of returned object depends on value of suffix and value.

Returns a new object unless this task or package is already defined. In that case if the old task appears consistent with the new task, a reference to the old task is returned. Otherwise a warning is printed and a reference to a new task is returned.

If redefine keyword is set, the behavior is the same except a warning is printed if it does *not* exist.

IrafPsetFactory(prefix, taskname, suffix, value, pkgname, pkgbinary, redefine=0)

source code 

Returns a new or existing IrafPset object

Returns a new object unless this task is already defined. In that case if the old task appears consistent with the new task, a reference to the old task is returned. Otherwise a warning is printed and a reference to a new task is returned.

If redefine keyword is set, the behavior is the same except a warning is printed if it does *not* exist.

IrafPkgFactory(prefix, taskname, suffix, value, pkgname, pkgbinary, redefine=0)

source code 

Returns a new or existing IrafPkg object

Returns a new object unless this package is already defined, in which case a warning is printed and a reference to the existing task is returned. Redefine parameter currently ignored.

Returns a new object unless this package is already defined. In that case if the old package appears consistent with the new package, a reference to the old package is returned. Else if the old package has already been loaded, a warning is printed and the redefinition is ignored. Otherwise a warning is printed and a reference to a new package is returned.

If redefine keyword is set, the behavior is the same except a warning is printed if it does *not* exist.

redirProcess(kw)

source code 

Process Stdout, Stdin, Stderr keywords used for redirection

Removes the redirection keywords from kw Returns (redirKW, closeFHList) which are a dictionary of the filehandles for stdin, stdout, stderr and a list of filehandles to close after execution.

Image and Stdplot redirection not handled (but it isn't clear that these are ever used anyway)

redirApply(redirKW)

source code 

Modify _sys.stdin, stdout, stderr using the redirKW dictionary

Returns a list of the original filehandles so they can be restored (by redirReset)

redirReset(resetList, closeFHList)

source code 

Restore _sys.stdin, stdout, stderr to their original values

Also closes the filehandles in closeFHList. If a tuple with a StringIO pipe is included in closeFHList, that means the value should be returned as the return value of the function. Returns an array of lines (without newlines.)
