Backend of MXCuBE

mxcubecore is the back-end library for MXCuBE Qt and MXCuBE Web. It allows access to the beamline control system and instrumentation. It acts as a container of single Python objects (called "hardware objects").

Installation

Installation of the mxcubecore module is commonly done as a dependency of either MXCuBE Web or MXCuBE Qt.

Standalone installation of the mxcubecore for development purposes can be done via Poetry with poetry install or via pip with python -m pip install --editable . (don't forget the trailing dot .).

mxcubecore depends on python-ldap that in turn depends on the openldap system library. It can be installed in a conda environment: conda install openldap or on systems using the apt package manager (Debian and derivatives, including Ubuntu): sudo apt-get install -y libldap2-dev libsasl2-dev. See python-ldap for more information.

See Developer documentation for more information on working with mxcubecore.
