Though edits had to be made to the fortran code to accomodate f2py compilation, all fortran files and their scientific content have been developped by N.A. Tsyganenko and colleagues.
I am only responsible for the python wrappers, which provide a convenient python class as an interface with the fortran subroutines.
To install the Tsyganenko python module, from this directory run:
cd tsyganenko
make clean
make
cd ..
sudo python setup.py install
To use this module, simply follow the example provided in the tsygTrace object docstring.
import tsyganenko
tsyganenko.tsygTrace?
You can also use ipython notbook to visualize a more detailed example.
ipython notebook --pylab=inline
If you run the above command from this repository you should see a notebook called 'Tsyganenko - Python examples'. If you run the above command from anywhere on your computer, you can drag and drop the file called 'Tsyganenko - Python examples.ipynb' to the notebok dashboard.
