Installation

pip install acom_music_box

Command line tool

MusicBox provides a command line tool that can run configurations as well as some pre-configured examples. Basic plotting can be done if gnuplot is installed.

Checkout the command line options

music_box -h                                        

Run an example. Notice that the output, in csv format, is printed to the terminal.

music_box -e Chapman

Output can be saved to a file in csv file when no --output-format is passed

music_box -e Chapman -o output.csv

Output can be saved to a file as csv file when --output-format csv is passed

music_box --output-format csv -e Chapman -o output.csv

Output can be saved to a file as netcdf file when --output-format netcdf is passed

music_box --output-format netcdf -e Chapman -o output.nc

Output can be saved to a file in csv file to output.csv when no output path is given but --output-format is csv

music_box --output-format csv -e Chapman

Output can be saved to a file in netcdf file to output.nc when no output path is given but --output-format is netcdf

music_box --output-format netcdf -e Chapman

You can also run your own configuration

music_box -c my_config.json

And, if you have gnuplot installed, some basic plots can be made to show some resulting concentrations

music_box -e Chapman -o output.csv --color-output --plot CONC.O1D
