scan discovery#
This widget can be use to browse a folder and sub-folder for looking for scan. Possible scan types are NXtomo (default), bliss-hdf5 and spec-edf. Each scan found will be send to the downstream workflow. It looks close to the DataWatcher but it very different:
it will not check for any field or attributes to validate the scan is finished. As a consequence it doe snot create an ‘observer’ for each possible scan, waiting for them to be finished.
it run one and stops. There is no cache mecanism to make sure each scan is send at most one.
Note
the bliss-hdf5 scan will need to be converted to NXtomo using the h52nx-nxtomomill widget to be processed because this type of scan is not handled natively by the other bricks.
