Preprocess Pipeline v0.9.0Beta

Hi Everyone,

After many months in development I finally have a pipeline script that is ready to share with the community.

The script has been tested exentsively but I need volunteers to do a final shakedown to get rid of any bugs
that may not be showing because of my particular workflow and preferences. I am currently using a DSLR
so I am particularly interested in CCD users' experiences with the script.

There are many more things on the TODO list including the use of global and/or local preferences, deletion of
intermediate files, a more robust user defineble file/directory scheme, etc..., plus any thoughts and suggestions
from the community for improvements.

I appologize for not including an image of the interface in this post, I currently don't have a means to do so and
the space allowed for attachments can't handle the image size as well as the two necssary attachments.
I have attached the source for the PI Document of the script and it contains all the images needed.

To add the script to PI, do the following:

* Unzip PreprocessPipeline_v090Beta.zip to a folder of your choosing
* Copy or move the PreProcessPipeline.js file to .../PixInsight/src/scripts folder
* In PixInsight, go to Script> and click on Feature Scripts...
* In the Feature Scripts dialog click on the Add button
* In the Select Directory dialog click on the src folder and then click the Select Folder button
* The Feature Scripts dialog will then add the new script to PI
For those of you who have not compiled a PI Document before, please follow these steps:

* Unzip attached source zip file to a folder of your choosing
* In PixInsight, go to Script>Development
* Click on Documentation Compiler
* In the Documentation compiler script, click on the Add button
* Locate the PreprocessPipeline.pidoc file that was unzipped and add it to the script's list
* Click on the OK button, the script will do the restI believe this can be done before or after you add the script to PI but it is probably best to add the script first.
You should now be able to view the script documentation in the Documentation Browser of the Process Explorer.

Thanks in advance for your help and I hope you enjoy the script.

Hi John,

This is really great! I'm testing it right now. Let me some time to digest it... I think I will have a lot of things to add.


Best regards,
Vicent.

Hi again,

I have set up all the pipeline, but I have a problem: I cannot select the reference image for the registration process. This is what I do:

- Select with the mouse the frame in the input file list, which I want to set up as reference.
- Press the set reference button

Pressing the set reference button does nothing. What happens here?


Regards,
Vicent.

To all,

I have repared a critical bug in the debayer process engine that was not propagating the debayered files to the registration process. I had
inadvertantly deleted one line of code when I changed the input file array structure and failed to notice the error. The script does not fail
but the integration output is definately not what it should be. I have replaced the zip file in the top post so if you have already downloaded
it, please download it again and replace the bad file. Thanks.

John

Vincent,

The registration reference file is set by doubleclicking on the 'Reference image' child node in the Register process parameters. A file path edit group will be displayed in the Parameter Modification controls section.
The Set Reference button in the input files list menu is for setting the Integration process reference image.
Sorry for the confusion, I'll see if I can make it a little more clear in the documentation.

Thanks,
John
