Installation

This project uses the phot_class package which is a custom analysis pipeline that is not available via a package manager. Source code can be downloaded to your local machine from GitHub or by using git:

git clone https://github.com/mwvgroup/Photometric-Classification

To ensure reproducibility and reduce the potential for programmatic errors, it is recommended to work within a conda environment. The necessary installation dependencies for creating this environment have been specified in a configuration file for convenience:

conda env create --name phot_class --file Photometric-Classification/environment.yml

The phot_class can then be installed as follows:

# Activate the conda environment
conda activate phot_class

python Photometric-Classification/setup.py install --user

# Optionally, you can then deactivate the conda environment when finished
conda deactivate
