# rfpipe

A fast radio interferometric transient search library. Extends on [rtpipe](http://github.com/caseyjlaw/rtpipe).

This library supports real-time analysis for the realfast project and offline analysis of VLA data on a single workstation. Integration with the real-time VLA and cluster processing is provided by [realfast](http://github.com/realfastvla/realfast).

Planned future development include:

- Supporting other search algorithms.

- Supporting other interferometers by adding data and metadata reading functions.

## Installation

`rfpipe` requires the [anaconda](http://anaconda.com) installer on Linux and OSX. The most reliable installation is for Python3.6 and adding conda-forge:

```

conda config --add channels conda-forge

conda create -n realfast python=3.6 numpy scipy cython matplotlib numba pyfftw bokeh

source activate realfast

pip install --extra-index-url https://casa-pip.nrao.edu:443/repository/pypi-group/simple casatools

pip install -e git+git://github.com/realfastvla/rfpipe#egg=rfpipe

```

## Dependencies

- numpy/scipy/matplotlib

- casa6 python libraries (for quanta and measures; available on Python 3.6 via pip)

- numba (for multi-core and gpu acceleration)

- rtpipe (for flagging; will be removed soon)

- astropy

- sdmpy

- pyfftw

- pyyaml

- attrs

- rfgpu (optional; for GPU FFTs)

- vys/vysmaw and vysmaw_reader (optional; to read vys data from VLA correlator)
