MeerTRAP Trigger Tools
This repository contains realtime VOEvent triggering software for the MeerTRAP project at the MeerKAT telescope. The code is mainly developed for Python 3 (and in particular version 3.7), but Python 2 (e.g. version 2.7) should work fine.
Author
The software is primarily developed and maintained by Fabian Jankowski. For more information, feel free to contact me via: fabian.jankowski at manchester.ac.uk.
Citation
If you make use of the software, please add a link to this repository and cite our upcoming paper. See the CITATION file.
Installation
The easiest and recommended way to install the software is through pip directly from its GitHub repository. For example, to install the master branch of the code, use the following command:
pip3 install git+https://github.com/fjankowsk/meertrig.git@master
This will automatically install all dependencies.
Example Usage
The meertrig software makes it easy to construct and emit a VOEvent packet to a given VOEvent broker. An example is given below.
```python from meertrig import VOEvent
params = { 'utc': utc, 'title': 'Detection of test event', 'shortname': 'Test event', 'beamsemimajor': semiMaj, 'beamsemiminor': semiMin, 'beamrotationangle': 0.0, 'tsamp': 0.367, 'cfreq': 1284.0, 'bandwidth': 856.0, 'nchan': 4096, 'beam': 123, 'dm': dm, 'dmerr': dmerr, 'width': width, 'snr': snr, 'flux': flux, 'ra': coord.ra.deg, 'dec': coord.dec.deg, 'gl': coord.galactic.l.deg, 'gb': coord.galactic.b.deg, 'name': name, 'importance': importance, 'internal': 1, 'openalert': 0, 'test': 1, 'productid': productid }
v = VOEvent(host=hostname, port=port) ve = v.generateevent(params, True) v.sendevent(ve) ```
