Installation

Use the pip package manager to install AutoWISP:

pip install autowisp

Run the Tests (optional)

Autowisp comes with a set of tests that apply all processing steps to a small set images and check that the results are as expected. To run the tests:

python3 -m autowisp.tests failed_test -vvvv

The failed_test argument above tells AutoWISP test suite to save a test which fails to a directory with that name. If no tests fail, no such directory should exist.

It may take a while to run all the tests, so please be patient. In particular, unless you are using a local installation of astrometry.net, finding a function that allows converting sky coordinates to coordinates within each image uses a web interface that only allows submitting one image at a time per user and can take a minute or more to return a solution.
