## Requirements

Python 3.9+ is required.

We recommend [Anaconda](https://www.continuum.io/downloads/) which comes with a suite of packages useful for scientific data analysis. Step-by-step instructions for installing Anaconda can be found at: [Windows](https://docs.anaconda.com/anaconda/install/windows/), [macOS](https://docs.anaconda.com/anaconda/install/mac-os/), [Linux](https://docs.anaconda.com/anaconda/install/linux/)


## Installation

### Virtual Environment
To avoid potential dependency issues with other Python packages, we suggest creating a virtual environment for PySPEDAS; you can create a virtual environment in your terminal with:

```bash
python -m venv pyspedas
```

To enter your virtual environment, run the 'activate' script:

#### Windows

```bash
.\pyspedas\Scripts\activate
```

#### macOS and Linux

```bash
source pyspedas/bin/activate
```

#### Using Jupyter notebooks with your virtual environment

To get virtual environments working with Jupyter, in the virtual environment, type:

```bash
pip install ipykernel
python -m ipykernel install --user --name pyspedas --display-name "Python (pySPEDAS)"
```

(note: "pyspedas" is the name of your virtual environment)

Then once you open the notebook, go to "Kernel" then "Change kernel" and select the one named "Python (PySPEDAS)"

### Install
PySPEDAS supports Windows, macOS and Linux. To get started, install the `pyspedas` package using PyPI:

```bash
pip install pyspedas
```

### Upgrade

To upgrade to the latest version of PySPEDAS:

```bash
pip install pyspedas --upgrade
```


## Local Data Directories

The recommended way of setting your local data directory is to set the `SPEDAS_DATA_DIR` environment variable. `SPEDAS_DATA_DIR` acts as a root data directory for all missions, and will also be used by IDL (if you’re running a recent copy of the bleeding edge).

Mission specific data directories (e.g., `MMS_DATA_DIR` for MMS, `THM_DATA_DIR` for THEMIS) can also be set, and these will override `SPEDAS_DATA_DIR`


## Usage

To get started, import pyspedas and pytplot:

```python
import pyspedas
from pytplot import tplot
```

You can load data into tplot variables by calling `pyspedas.mission.instrument()`, e.g.,

To load and plot 1 day of THEMIS FGM data for probe 'd':
```python
thm_fgm = pyspedas.themis.fgm(trange=['2015-10-16', '2015-10-17'], probe='d')

tplot(['thd_fgs_gse', 'thd_fgs_gsm'])
```

To load and plot 2 minutes of MMS burst mode FGM data:
```python
mms_fgm = pyspedas.mms.fgm(trange=['2015-10-16/13:05:30', '2015-10-16/13:07:30'], data_rate='brst')

tplot(['mms1_fgm_b_gse_brst_l2', 'mms1_fgm_b_gsm_brst_l2'])
```

Note: by default, PySPEDAS loads all data contained in CDFs found within the requested time range; this can potentially load data outside of your requested trange. To remove the data outside of your requested trange, set the `time_clip` keyword to `True`

To load and plot 6 hours of PSP SWEAP/SPAN-i data:
```python
spi_vars = pyspedas.psp.spi(trange=['2018-11-5', '2018-11-5/06:00'], time_clip=True)

tplot(['DENS', 'VEL', 'T_TENSOR', 'TEMP'])
```

To download 5 days of STEREO magnetometer data (but not load them into tplot variables):
```python
stereo_files = pyspedas.stereo.mag(trange=['2013-11-1', '2013-11-6'], downloadonly=True)
```

### Standard Options
- `trange`: two-element list specifying the time range of interest. This keyword accepts a wide range of formats
- `time_clip`: if set, clip the variables to the exact time range specified by the `trange` keyword
- `suffix`: string specifying a suffix to append to the loaded variables
- `varformat`: string specifying which CDF variables to load; accepts the wild cards * and ?
- `varnames`: string specifying which CDF variables to load (exact names)
- `get_support_data`: if set, load the support variables from the CDFs
- `downloadonly`: if set, download the files but do not load them into tplot
- `no_update`: if set, only load the data from the local cache
- `notplot`: if set, load the variables into dictionaries containing numpy arrays (instead of creating the tplot variables)

## Getting Help
To find the options supported, call `help` on the instrument function you're interested in:
```python
help(pyspedas.themis.fgm)
```

You can ask questions by creating an issue or by joining the [SPEDAS mailing list](http://spedas.org/mailman/listinfo/spedas-list_spedas.org).


## PyTplot

Pytplot is a separate project, that replicates the IDL "tplot" functionality. Pyspedas uses a modified version of pytplot with matplotlib as the plotting library.

our HTML documentation at:\n\nhttps://pyspedas.readthedocs.io/\n\n\n## Getting Help\nTo find the options supported, call `help` on the instrument function you're interested in:\n```python\nhelp(pyspedas.themis.fgm)\n```\n\nYou can ask questions by creating an issue or by joining the [SPEDAS mailing list](http://spedas.org/mailman/listinfo/spedas-list_spedas.org).\n\n\n## PyTplot\n\nPytplot is a separate project, that replicates the IDL \"tplot\" functionality. Pyspedas uses a modified version of pytplot with matplotlib as the plotting library.\n\n\n## Contributing\nWe welcome contributions to PySPEDAS; to learn how you can contribute, please see our [Contributing Guide](https://github.com/spedas/pyspedas/blob/master/CONTRIBUTING.md)\n\n\n## Plug-in Development\nAn introduction to PySPEDAS plug-in development can be found here:\n\n[Introduction to PySPEDAS plug-in development](https://github.com/spedas/pyspedas/tree/master/docs/pyspedas_plugin_development.pdf)\n\n\n## Code of Conduct\nIn the interest of fostering an open and welcoming environment, we as contributors and maintainers pledge to making participation in our project and our community a harassment-free experience for everyone, regardless of age, body size, disability, ethnicity, sex characteristics, gender identity and expression, level of experience, education, socio-economic status, nationality, personal appearance, race, religion, or sexual identity and orientation.
