Universe Render

This is a mini package for rendering the hydro simulation into awesome visualizations.

Required Python Packages: numpy, scipy, matplotlib, numpy-quaternion, numba, mpi4py

*numpy-quaternionis used in 3D rotation of the camera for interpolation of frame. You can run the without it if you don't need to interpolate the frames.

*numba and mpi4py is for acceleration.

Required System Installation: mpi environment (for multi-process support), FFmpeg with x264 (for video making)

Roadmap

• A working prototype for rendering
• Documentation (ongoing)
• Example run
• More kernels
• GPU accelerate support

Installation

First, clone this repo to your machine

git clone [email protected]:pointeee/universe_render.git

Then, install with pip

cd universe_render
pip install -e .

This will allow you to run the code and edit it conveniently when necessary (this is common at this stage).

Usage

Please refer the documentation and the example notebooks.
