Hello EPICS community, I would like to announce pymsi, a python package that can replace the msi tool. Here is a link to the documentation: http://www-csr.bessy.de/control/pymsi/pymsi.html Here is the download link: http://www-csr.bessy.de/control/pymsi/dist/pymsi-1.0.tar.gz And here is the command to clone our repository: hg clone http://www-csr.bessy.de/control/pymsi/pymsi-hg pymsi This is the main project page: http://www-csr.bessy.de/control/pymsi Pymsi is a python package that introduces a new substitution file format that is similar to the old msi substitution format, but has valid python expressions in it. Here is a short example: do( file("adimovhgbl.template", subst( DESCVAR="adimovhgbl_ins.mac", GBASE="U3IV:", DRV="V", AdiMopVer="9", TRIG1="U3IV:AdiVGblPvr.PROC", TRIG2="U3IV:AdiVGblMvr.PROC", ), subst( DESCVAR="adimovhgbl_ins.mac", GBASE="U3IV:", DRV="H", AdiMopVer="9", TRIG1="U3IV:AdiHGblPvr.PROC", TRIG2="U3IV:AdiHGblMvr.PROC", ), pattern( ("GBASE","DRV","AdiMopVer","TRIG1","TRIG2"), ("U3IV","C","9","U3IV:AdiCGblPvr.PROC", "U3IV:AdiCGblMvr.PROC"), ("U3IV","P","9","U3IV:AdiPGblPvr.PROC", "U3IV:AdiPGblMvr.PROC"), ), ), file("adimogbl.template", subst( DESCVAR="adimogbl_ins.mac", GBASE="U3IV:", TRIG1="U3IV:AdiMoVGblTrg.PROC", TRIG2="U3IV:AdiMoHGblTrg.PROC", TRIG3="", TRIG4="", ), ), ) Features of the package are: * uses the EPICS maclib, so macro substitution is compatible with msi. * substitution files are parseble by python, so all the features and powers of the python scripting language are available. * Scopes of macro definitions are well defined. * The pymsi language (the format of the substitution files) can easily be extended. * conversion tool for conversion from old substitution file format included. * Free to use for non-commercial applications Greetings Goetz Pfeiffer -- Dipl.
