2022.3

[javierggt]

ska3-flight 2022.3

Notable highlights of this release include:

• ACIS load review tools
  • https://occ-cfa.cfa.harvard.edu/browse/FSDS-18
  • https://occ-cfa.cfa.harvard.edu/browse/FSDS-19
  • https://occ-cfa.cfa.harvard.edu/browse/FSDS-24
• cxotime:
  • Add new functions date2secs and secs2date for fast conversions even for scalar values
• kadi:
  • Add support for commands archive v2 (beta release). This was previously discussed, with additional details to be briefed at a DAWG session.
• maude:
  • Add support for P016
  • Add support for binary blob queries
  • Add support for allpoints, hr (high rate), nearest, icalc, ircts params
• parse_cm:
  • Add a module that translates a DOT or FOT request to backstop commands
• cheta (aka Ska.engarchive):
  • Fix bug pickling MSIDset
  • Allow CALC_ as an alias for DP_ for better interoperability with MAUDE (e.g. querying CALC_PITCH_FSS works for both CXC and MAUDE backends.
• Ska.Sun:
  • Add function to compute off-nominal roll range for a given pitch (or pitches) using a high-resolution sampled version of the roll table.

Interface Impacts:

No API breaking interface impacts are expected. Known interface changes are:

• kadi:
  • For the default v1 commands archive, the output of get_cmds now includes a new time column corresponding to the date in CXC seconds.
• sparkles:
  • Non-public function sparkles.roll_optimize.allowed_rolldev has been removed.
  • Plot of star catalog for roll options now includes the star mag for potential candidate stars.
• xija_gui_fit:
  • Numerous changes/improvements to the GUI interface including new functionality (see PR 116).

Testing:

• Automated tests (rc6).
• HEAD tests (rc6).
• chimchim tests (rc6).
  The latest release candidates will be installed in /proj/sot/ska3/test on HEAD, and all release candidates will be available for testing from the usual channels:

conda create -n ska3-flight-2022.3rc# --override-channels \
  -c https://icxc.cfa.harvard.edu/aspect/ska3-conda/flight \
  -c https://icxc.cfa.harvard.edu/aspect/ska3-conda/test \
  ska3-flight==2022.3rc#

Review

All operations critical or impacting PR's are independently and carefully reviewed. For other PR's the level of detail for review is calibrated to operations criticality. Some PR's that are confined to aspect-team-specific processing may have little to no independent review.

Deployment

ska3-flight 2022.3 will be promoted to flight conda channel and installed on HEAD and GRETA Linux upon approval of FSDS Jira ticket.
