Bibliothèque de simulation optique X pour le synchrotron SOLEIL

This library codes for a simulation tool for designing X-ray beamline. It has specifically been designed for the SOLEIL Synchrotron, but can be used for any X-ray optical design as shown in examples.

Installing

1. Install miniconda

   Installation page pf miniconda: https://docs.conda.io/en/latest/miniconda.html

2. Create a python 3.9 dedicated environment and install required packages

   conda env create -f pyoptix39.yml
   conda activate pyoptix39

   Create jupyter configuration file

   jupyter notebook --generate-config

   There is now a file at C:\Users\<username>\.jupyter\jupyter_notebook_config.py

   Find the line : #c.NotebookApp.notebook_dir = ''

   Replace by c.NotebookApp.notebook_dir = '/the/path/to/home/folder/'

   Do not forget to delete the # at line start

3. Download optix using git :

   git clone https://github.com/ddennetiere/optix

   Compile its release version using msys2 cf. https://www.msys2.org/ and codeblocks.

   Follow optix README
