DarkCurrentStep

class jwst.dark_current.DarkCurrentStep(name=None, parent=None, config_file=None, _validate_kwds=True, **kws)[source]

Bases: JwstStep

DarkCurrentStep: Performs dark current correction by subtracting dark current reference data from the input science data model.

Create a Step instance.

Parameters:
  • name (str, optional) – The name of the Step instance. Used in logging messages and in cache filenames. If not provided, one will be generated based on the class name.

  • parent (Step instance, optional) – The parent step of this step. Used to determine a fully-qualified name for this step, and to determine the mode in which to run this step.

  • config_file (str or pathlib.Path, optional) – The path to the config file that this step was initialized with. Use to determine relative path names of other config files.

  • **kws (dict) – Additional parameters to set. These will be set as member variables on the new Step instance.

set_average_dark_current(input_model, dark_model)

Take the three possible locations specifying the average dark current and assign them to the input model, in priority order: 1) Any value provided to the step parameter, either from the user or a parameter reference file 2) The 2-D array stored in dark_model.average_dark_current 3) The scalar value stored in dark_model.meta.exposure.average_dark_current

Methods Documentation

process(input)[source]

This is where real work happens. Every Step subclass has to override this method. The default behaviour is to raise a NotImplementedError exception.
