glue-viz/glue-vispy-viewers

Glue plugin for 3D viewers using VisPy

Requirements

Note that this plugin requires Glue and PyOpenGL to be installed - see this page for instructions on installing Glue. PyOpenGL should get installed automatically when you install the plugin (see below).

While this plugin uses VisPy, for now we bundle our own version of VisPy since we rely on some recently added features, so you do not need to install VisPy separately.

Installing

If you use conda, you can install this plugin with:

conda install -c conda-forge glue-vispy-viewers

or using pip:

pip install glue-vispy-viewers

This will auto-register the plugin with Glue. Now simply start up Glue, open a data cube, drag it onto the main canvas, then select one of the 3D viewer choices.

Testing

To run the tests, do:

pytest glue_vispy_viewers

at the root of the repository. This requires the pytest module to be installed.
