Rapthor: LOFAR DDE Pipeline
Rapthor is an experimental pipeline for correcting direction-dependent effects in LOFAR data. It uses DPPP and WSClean to derive and apply the corrections in facets or as smooth 2-D screens. It uses CWL for the pipeline language and Toil to run the pipelines.

Downloading and Installing
Installation can be done in a number of ways. In order of preference (read:
ease of use):


Install the latest release from PyPI:
pip install rapthor



Install directly from the Rapthor git repository. This option is useful if you want to use one or more features that have not yet been released:
pip install --upgrade pip
pip install git+https://git.astron.nl/RD/rapthor.git[@<branch|tag|hash>]

If the optional @<branch|tag|hash> is omitted, HEAD of the master branch will used.


Clone the git repository, and install from your working copy. This option is mostly used by developers who want to make local changes:
pip install --upgrade pip
git clone https://git.astron.nl/RD/rapthor.git
cd rapthor
git checkout [<branch|tag|hash>] #optionally
pip install .



Note
When installing Rapthor from source (options 2 and 3), you will need pip version 23 or later. That is why you need to upgrade to the latest version of pip before you install from source.
Usage
The rapthor executable can be used from the command line with
a parset that defines the parameters of the run. E.g.:
$ rapthor rapthor.parset

The parset defines the input and working directories, various options, etc. For details,
please see the example parset in the examples directory.
