Running ViDEO

ViDEO is a python script used to process the raw output files generared by iDEA into easy to use .dat data files, .pdf plots and .mp4 animations

Using ViDEO directly

Simply naviage to the relevent outputs folder

cd outputs/run_name/

and run the script

python ViDEO.py

You will be promted for information to determine the result you want to process, and what files should be generated. ViDEO makes use of the file convention of outpus used in iDEA, as all pickle files are names according to the following convention

{gs/td}_{appoximation}_{quantity}.db

for example, the ground-state non-interacting density

gs_non_den.db

Using ViDEO on results generated from a script

Simply naviage to the relevent outputs folder (assuming run.save = True in the relevent input file)

cd outputs/run_name/

and run the command

ViDEO.py
