Methods Documentation

classmethod from_name(name='NectarCam', version=None)[source]#

Construct a CameraReadout using the name of the camera and array.

This expects that there is a resource accessible ctapipe_resources via get_table_dataset called "[array]-[camera].camreadout.fits.gz" or "[array]-[camera]-[version].camgeom.fits.gz".

Parameters:

name: str: Camera name (e.g. NectarCam, LSTCam, …)
version:: camera version id (currently unused)

Returns:

new CameraReadout

classmethod from_table(url_or_table, **kwargs)[source]#

Load a CameraReadout from an astropy.table.Table instance or a file that is readable by astropy.table.Table.read.

Parameters:

url_or_table: string or astropy.table.Table: either input filename/url or a Table instance
kwargs: extra keyword arguments: extra arguments passed to astropy.table.Table.read, depending on file type (e.g. format, hdu, path)

to_table()[source]#: Convert this to an astropy.table.Table.
