============
Octopost
============

**Octopost** contains a pool of python3 tools for post-processing data obtained with the TDDFT code OCTOPUS[1].

Octopost can be imported like any Python package into your analysis scripts
and provides a set of easy-to-use methods for extracting, preparing and even
plotting standard information like bandstructure, various (projected) density
of states, reciprocal cell for periodic systems and so on. The main focus,
however, lies in the ARPES (Angle-Resolved PhotoEmission Spectroscopy) methods
which make calculating ARPES maps (also called k-maps) easy and quick. The
calculated maps can be plotted and exported in a .hdf5 file compatible with
the POT (Photoemssion Orbital Tomography) simulation and analysis software
kMap.py[2].

.. warning::
   The project and the documentation is not available to the public yet. To read the documentation, please run 'make html' inside the './docs' folder and open the './docs/_build/html/index.html' with the browser of your choice.
   Note: The package has to be installed as developer to build the docs.

Quick-start
===============
::

   pip install octopost

Installation
===============

It is generally recommended but not required to use a virtual enviroment like
venv or conda for this package. For a tutorial on how to use them please see `here <https://realpython.com/python-virtual-environments-a-primer/>`_.

User
----

As a user you only need the subset of packages nessecary to run the package.
The package will also not installed in an editable form. The package will be
added to your current enviroment and will be available throughout it.::

   make install

on Linux, or::

   pip install .

on Windows.

Developer & Maintainer
----------------------

In order to develop for Octopost it is required to use the '-e' flag for pip
to install in editable mode. Furthermore, it is recommended to install the 'dev' and 'test' packages as well. Simply use::

   make install-dev

on Linux or::

   pip install -e .[test,dev]

on Windows.


Test
=====

If you wish to run the test suite please make sure you have Octopost and its
'test' dependencies installed. The latter is automatically the case if you followed the 'Developer & Maintainer' section of the installation guide. If you installed the 'User' version please additionally run::

   pip install .[test]

In order to run the test use::

   pytest

On Linux you can also use::

   make test

which will also run through all the demo files (without output). This will not verify the results specifically but ensures that no runtime errors occur as the demo files have a better code coverage.

Demo
=====

Inside the './demo' folder there are demo scripts, the data they use and output
files produced by the scripts. They showcase the different tools Octopost provides, how to use them and some customizablities.
