laue-dials
Data analysis package for Laue crystallography.
laue-dials is an extension to the DIALS code for analyzing polychromatic crystallographic data.
Building off the DIALS framework, and including modern tools like numpy, scipy, and
reciprocalspaceship, this package allows for analysis of X-ray crystallographic data using
wide-bandwidth light sources. This package is intended to be used in conjunction with DIALS,
careless, and Phenix in order to generate molecular models from raw data. For documentation, see
https://rs-station.github.io/laue-dials/index.html.
Installation
To install laue-dials, the DIALS code must first be installed using
conda install -c conda-forge dials
Then, using the same python environment, run the following to install laue-dials from pip:
pip install laue-dials
or alternatively, install the development version of laue-dials from GitHub:
pip install git+https://github.com/rs-station/laue-dials.git
laue-dials consists of several command-line scripts for the processing of Laue diffraction data, which are
laue.find_spots
laue.index
laue.sequence_to_stills
laue.optimize_indexing
laue.refine
laue.predict
laue.integrate
laue.plot_wavelengths
laue.compute_rmsds
Note that you need to import the image data using dials.import. For information on how to use this command, visit https://dials.github.io/documentation/programs/dials_import.html. An example of how to analyze a full dataset lives at https://github.com/rs-station/laue-dials/blob/main/examples/pipeline.sh.
If any issues occur either with installation or use of the software, please file an issue at issue tracker. Any and all questions, concerns, or feature requests are welcome.
