Getting started

Development environment

• Clone this repo: git@github.com:DiamondLightSource/i19-bluesky.git

• To install a dev environment run ./dev_install.sh. Note that this will also clone and install a local version of dodal, as the i19-bluesky package makes use of the devices instantiated there.

The recommended IDE is vscode, and a workspace which includes dodal has been set up in the repo. This can be used on a DLS machine as follows:

cd /path/to/i19-bluesky
module load vscode
code ./.vscode/i19-bluesky.code-workspace

If you use vs code, you may need to set the python interpreter for both repositories to the one from the virtual environment created in .venv.

Supported Python versions

As a standard for the python versions to support, we are using the numpy deprecation policy.

Currently supported versions are: 3.10, 3.11, 3.12.
