Solar MAgnetic Connection Haus tool

Streamlit frontend to the PyPI package solarmach, used for solar-mach.github.io.

To install and start a local Streamlit server, run the following commands in your terminal:

# optional: create and activate virtual environment in python (alternatively use conda)
python3 -m venv env
source env/bin/activate

# install requirements with pip (alternatively use conda)
pip3 install -r requirements.txt

# run the actual streamlit app
streamlit run streamlit_app.py 

Afterwards the app should open in your browser.

Python package

In addition, all the functionality is available in the streamlit-independent python package solarmach. It requires python >= 3.10 and can be installed either from PyPI using:

pip install solarmach

or from conda using:

conda install -c conda-forge solarmach
