This is an old revision of the document!


STILL IN DEVELOPMENT. NEED TO FINISH UPDATING THE PBP VIEWER TO INCLUDE THE SORTER AND THEN UPDATED FILTERS.

Currently can download ADPAA and the PBP_Viewer is in there. It doesn't have the function to call it from anywhere though. If you can't call anything at all when ADPAA is downloaded. Check the ADPAA wiki page (link will be here).

Another option is I will upload the PBP_Viewer to a google drive and store the the program plus a few sample files to download. This means you won't have to download ADPAA if you don't want to, and would probably be an easier to get started with the program.

The programs itself only works if *.pbp.nc files produced by SODA, and *.pbp.nc files altered using the PBP_Viewer program. Not tested for other file types, but if you have another file type thats in the 1D (super long array) particle by particle format, feel free to give it a try and hopefully it works. If you have any questions in the next two or three years (currently 2024) feel free to ask and I might be able to help update the program to work with the different pbp file.

Pictures will be included here.

  • Unordered List ItemTo open the program, run it using python. Either an IDE such as Spyder (maybe pycharm), or from the command line in an environment that can use python. From spyder I use e.g. runfile('PBP_Viewer_20240819.py', '06222000_232921_HVPS1.pbp.nc'). From the commandline with ADPAA installed I use ./PBP_Viewer.py filename. Can also use python3 PBP_Viewer.py filename.
  • To navigate the program, pictures will be included with graphics explaining. They'll be included below.
