Python API for Firefly: display astronomical data as tables, images, charts, and more!
Python API for Firefly, IPAC's Advanced Astronomy Web UI Framework
The client must be connected to a Firefly server. The Firefly repository is located at http://github.com/Caltech-IPAC/firefly. Standalone Firefly servers may be obtained from this Dockerhub repository.
For detailed explanation on the usage, see the online documentation. Following is a very simple example:
from firefly_client import FireflyClient
fc = FireflyClient.make_client() # can also explictly pass url of a firefly server; default is http://localhost:8080/firefly
A FITS image may be uploaded and displayed:
fval = fc.upload_file('image.fits')
fc.show_fits(fval, 'myimage')
For more examples, check notebooks & python files in the examples and test directories.
