siril-multi-night

Process astrophotography data from multiple nights using Siril.

Siril is a popular, open source astrophotography processing tool, but it lacks an automated approach to processing data across multiple nights. siril-multi-night provides a simple CLI and python module that aims to fill this gap.

Usage

Prerequisite

• siril-cli (comes with the Siril desktop application)

CLI

Install dependencies to a venv

# create the venv
python -m venv .venv
# activate the venv
source .venv/bin/activate
# install dependencies
python -m pip install -r requirements.txt
