AreaDetector configurator (and - one day - viewer)

adviewer - despite the viewer in its name - is primarily a configuration tool for already-running areaDetector IOCs. It can help you determine how any given plugin pipeline has been configured, displaying an interactively- reconfigurable node graph and tree-based view. It may also help you discover what plugins are installed for an unfamiliar installation.

Eventually, there will be a full-featured viewer based on PyDM integrated as well. For now, a simple PyDM user interface is spawned in a separate process when using the image plugin right-click context menu in the graph.

Requirements

• Python 3.6+
• qtpy <https://github.com/spyder-ide/qtpy>_ + PyQt5
• qtpynodeeditor <https://github.com/klauer/qtpynodeeditor>, a pure Python port of nodeeditor <https://github.com/paceholder/nodeeditor>
• networkx <https://networkx.github.io>_
• ophyd <https://blueskyproject.io/ophyd/>_

Optionally:

• PyDM <https://github.com/slaclab/pydm>_, to spawn an image viewer
