This is a Python library for the post-measurement analysis of real-time deformability cytometry (RT-DC) datasets; an essential part of Shape-Out.
The documentation, including the code reference and examples, is available at dclab.readthedocs.io.
pip install dclab[all]
For more options, please check out the documentation.
The main branch for developing dclab is master.
If you want to make small changes like one-liners,
documentation, or default values in the configuration,
you may work on the master branch. If you want to change
more, please (fork dclab and) create a separate branch,
e.g. my_new_feature_dev
, and create a pull-request
once you are done making your changes.
Please make sure to edit the
Changelog.
Very important: Please always try to use
git pull --rebase
instead of:
git pull
to prevent non-linearities in the commit history.
dclab is tested using pytest. If you have the time, please write test
methods for your code and put them in the tests
directory. To run
the tests, install pytest and run:
pytest tests
The docs are built with sphinx. Please make sure they compile when you change them (this also includes function doc strings):
cd docs pip install -r requirements.txt sphinx-build . _build # open "index.html" in the "_build" directory
We use flake8 to enforce coding style:
pip install flake8 flake8 --exclude _version.py dclab flake8 docs flake8 examples flake8 tests
Dclab gets its version from the latest git tag. If you think that a new version should be published, create a tag on the master branch (if you have the necessary permissions to do so):
git tag -a "0.1.3" git push --tags origin
Appveyor and GitHub Actions will then automatically build source package and wheels and publish them on PyPI.
