Run a Plan

Note

You will need a running server connected to a message bus to complete this tutorial.

With a running worker, you can then run a plan. In a new terminal:

blueapi controller run sleep '{"time": 5}'

Example Plans

Move a Motor

blueapi -c stomp.yaml controller run move \
'{
    "moves": {"x": 5}
}'

Take a Snapshot on a Detector

blueapi -c stomp.yaml controller run count \
'{
    "detectors": ["image_det"]
}'

Run a Scan

blueapi -c stomp.yaml controller run scan \
'{
    "detectors": ["image_det"], 
    "spec": {
        "type": "Line", 
        "axis": "x", 
        "start": 0, 
        "stop": 10, 
        "num": 10
    }, 
    "axes_to_move": {"x": "x"}
}'

The names of the devices used ("image_det" and "x") can be found via:
