The HEXRD project is developing a cross-platform, open-source library for the general analysis of X-ray diffraction data. This includes powder diffraction, Laue diffraction, and High Energy Diffraction Microscopy (a.k.a. 3DXRD, multi-grain rotation method) modalities. At its core, HEXRD provides an abstraction of a generic diffraction instrument with support for multiple detectors. This includes optimized transforms from the direct and reciprocal crystal lattices to the local detector coordinates, harnesses for interpolating image data into scattering angle coordinates, and sophisticated calibration routines.
Requires Python 3.8+
On OSX hexrd requires Python from conda-forge, to ensure it is built with the
latest SDK. See the following issue for more details: HEXRD/hexrdgui#505.
This can be installed using the following command:
conda install -c conda-forge python=3.8OS X 11 does not work with the Python from conda-forge. Please install a the version from the HEXRD channel
conda install -c hexrd python=3.8.4To install the latest stable release
conda install -c hexrd -c conda-forge hexrdTo install the latest changes on master, do the following. Note that this release may be unstable.
conda install -c hexrd/label/hexrd-prerelease -c hexrd -c conda-forge hexrdThere is currently a CLI for far-field HEDM analysis (a.k.a. 3DXRD)
hexrdRequires Python 3.8+ and a C compiler (e.g., gcc). First clone the Git repository
git clone https://github.com/HEXRD/hexrd.git# For now we need to explicitly install hexrd, until we push it to PyPI
pip install -e hexrdIt is highly recommended to install hexrd in its own virtual env
conda create --name hexrd
conda activate hexrd# First, make sure python3.8+ is installed in your target env.
# If it is not, run the following command:
conda install -c conda-forge python=3.8
# Install deps using conda package
conda install -c hexrd -c conda-forge hexrd
# Now using pip to link repo's into environment for development
CONDA_BUILD=1 pip install --no-build-isolation --no-deps -U -e hexrd# First, make sure python3.8+ is installed in your target env.
# On OSX you will need to use the Python package from conda-forge
# See the following issue for more details: https://github.com/HEXRD/hexrdgui/issues/505
conda install -c conda-forge python=3.8
# Install deps using conda package
conda install -c hexrd -c conda-forge hexrd
# Now using pip to link repo's into environment for development
CONDA_BUILD=1 pip install --no-build-isolation --no-deps -U -e hexrd# First, make sure python3.8+ is installed in your target env.
# If it is not, run the following command:
conda install -c conda-forge python=3.8
# Install deps using conda package
conda install -c hexrd -c conda-forge hexrd
# Now using pip to link repo's into environment for development
set CONDA_BUILD=1
pip install --no-build-isolation --no-deps -U -e hexrd
