The IRISreader library provides functionality to read IRIS level 2 data by the IRIS satellite and to process it for big data applications. IRISreader works best with a Jupyter notebook.
If you came here to look for something that provides a good python replacement for IDL code and is well-integrated into SunPy, have a look at IRISpy.
Warning: Due to the end of project funding, IRISreader is no longer maintained. If you are interested in maintaining it, let me know!
To install the latest stable release from pypi, run
pip install irisreader
To install the current development version, clone the repository
git clone https://github.com/i4Ds/IRISreader.git
and run
sudo python3 setup.py install
to install the library.
To test it go to the Python console, cd to the IRISreader directory and run:
from irisreader.data import sample_sji
sji_data = sample_sji()
sji_data.plot(0)
