Hi Klemen,

Nice library, thanks for sharing. I see that you mentioned pyDevSup in your talk, were you also aware of pythonIoc?

http://controls.diamond.ac.uk/downloads/python/pythonSoftIoc/

https://github.com/Araneidae/pythonIoc

The device support layer is very similar to pyDevSup and PyDevice (embed a Python interpreter into an IOC build), but it also comes with record builder python functions that allow a database to be created directly from Python. At present you compile it as a support module and it creates an IOC executable that launcher the Python interpreter.

I mention it because we have plans to turn this on its head and make it an IOC packaged as a Python module. This would mean that creating a python IOC would be as simple as pip install softioc, then running a python script that imports from softioc. This puts it in a different space to pyDevSup and PyDevice (IOC in Python rather than Python in IOC), but there may be somethings we can share.

Thanks,

Tom

Subject: PyDevice intro

Hi,

As introduced today at EPICS collaboration meeting, PyDevice project is (another) EPICS device support for Python interpreter which focuses on easy integration of Python code with EPICS database. You can find today’s presentation on the Indico website and the project is available on GitHub including the tutorial.
