Crate mwalib[−][src]

Definitions for what we expose to the library Public items will be exposed as mwalib::module.

Re-exports

pub use fitsio;

pub use fitsio_sys;

Errors associated with reading in fits files.

fits_open	Open a fits file.
fits_open_hdu	Open a fits file’s HDU.
get_fits_col	Get a column from a fits file’s HDU.
get_fits_image	Given a FITS file pointer and a HDU, read the associated image.
get_hdu_image_size	Get the size of the image on the supplied FITS file pointer and HDU.
get_optional_fits_key	Given a FITS file pointer, a HDU that belongs to it, and a keyword that may or may not exist, pull out the value of the keyword, parsing it into the desired type.
get_optional_fits_key_long_string	Given a FITS file pointer, and a keyword to a long string keyword that may or may not exist, pull out the long string of the keyword. This deals with FITSs CONTINUE mechanism by calling a low level fits function.
get_required_fits_key	Given a FITS file pointer, a HDU that belongs to it, and a keyword, pull out the value of the keyword, parsing it into the desired type.
get_required_fits_key_long_string	Given a FITS file pointer, and a keyword to a long string keyword, pull out the long string of the keyword. This deals with FITSs CONTINUE mechanism by calling a low level fits function.

Antenna
Baseline	This is a struct for our baselines, so callers know the antenna ordering
CoarseChannel	This is a struct for our coarse channels
CorrelatorContext	`mwalib` correlator observation context. This represents the basic metadata for a correlator observation.
MetafitsContext	`mwalib` metafits context. This represents the basic metadata for the observation.
RFInput
TimeStep	This is a struct for our timesteps NOTE: correlator timesteps use unix time, voltage timesteps use gpstime, but we convert the two depending on what we are given
VisibilityPol	This is a struct for our visibility polarisations
VoltageContext	`mwalib` voltage captue system (VCS) observation context. This represents the basic metadata for a voltage capture observation.

CorrelatorVersion	Enum for all of the known variants of file format based on Correlator version
FitsError
MwalibError
Pol	Instrument polarisation.

COAX_V_FACTOR	the velocity factor of electic fields in RG-6 like coax cable
MWA_ALTITUDE_METRES	The MWA’s altitude in metres.
MWA_LATITUDE_RADIANS	The MWA’s latitude on Earth in radians. This is -26d42m11.94986s.
MWA_LONGITUDE_RADIANS	The MWA’s longitude on Earth in radians. This is 116d40m14.93485s.

as_u8_slice
convert_gpstime_to_unixtime	Returns a UNIX time given a GPStime
convert_unixtime_to_gpstime	Returns a UNIX time given a GPStime
dms_to_degrees	Function to take d m s and return the decimal degrees.
get_antennas_from_baseline	Given a baseline index, return a tuple of (ant1,ant2) for a std right upper triangle e.g. (where N is num antennas) Returns None if baseline was not found (your baseline is out of range) 0,0 0,1 … 0,N-1 1,1 1,2 1,N-1 … 2,2 … N-1,N-1
get_baseline_count	Given the number of antennas, calculate the number of baselines (cross+autos)
get_baseline_from_antenna_names	Given two antenna names and the vector of Antenna structs from metafits, return the baseline index.
get_baseline_from_antennas	Given two antenna indicies, return the baseline index.
