<div dir="ltr">Hello Spice Users,<div><br></div><div>After about two years of work I finally got around to submitting the 1.0.0 version of SpiceyPy, my Python wrapper for CSPICE onto PyPi (python package index). That means you can now run <b>"pip install spiceypy" </b>on most platforms to install spice into your python environment. </div><div><br></div><div>SpiceyPy is supported on most modern 32/64 bit systems running Windows, Linux, or OS X for Python versions: 2.7.x, 3.3.x, 3.4.x, and 3.5.x. </div><div><br></div><div>The install process for windows users has improved greatly in particular. If you have any issues with the install (on any platform) let me know and I will look into it. </div><div><br></div><div>As for further development I am currently working on getting spiceypy available directly via conda for those who use anaconda or miniconda which I hope to sort out in the next week or two.</div><div><br></div><div>I didn't make a changelog ahead of time but some general things that have happened include:</div><div><br></div><div>* Better indexing on SpiceCells (python slices work as one would expect).</div><div>* Found flags removed, now throw exceptions with clear messages instead.</div><div>* String length parameters now default to a large number.</div><div>* Added wrapper for GFILUM, which for some reason I had left out.</div><div>* Wrapper functions with tests for a vast majority of spice functions.</div><div>* Added Zenodo DOI badge for those publishing things.</div><div><br></div><div>Thanks for reading!
