pyweb12idb

A python tool to retrieve the APS 12IDB 1D data. Only the current beamline users can download data using this tool. A passcode is required, and ask the beamline staff for the passcode. It works only when the beamline data transfer server is running.

Requirement

python version 3 and higher. You will need to install matplotlib and numpy using pip install.

Example

1. Download the code to a directory, let's say c:\mycode\pyweb12idb

2. Start python and add the path.

   $ python

   import sys

   sys.path.append("c:/mycode")

   import pyweb12idb as wb

3. If you know your passcode, for example, "Lee_01", you can proceed. When you want data files with the file index 1;

   wb.get("Lee_01", 1)

   This will download all 1D files with the file index 1. There can be many files with the same file index with different extension numbers. But, due to the memory, it wouldn't download all of them. If there are more than 35 files, chance is high to have incomplete file download. In this case, you would need to delete the last data set.

   del(wb.web12idb.data[-1])

4. If you want to a specific extension number, for example 3 (This means your 2D file name is something like "Saaa_bbb_00001_00003.tif");

   wb.get("Lee_01", 1, 3)

5. For multiple extension numbers, you can do like

   wb.get("Lee_01", 1, [1,3,4,6])

6. To plot these data,

   wb.plot()

7. To save data under your current folder

   wb.save()
