Spectrometer Web Server
Python Driver and JSON interfaceOur StellarNet Python Driver and JSON interface is now available for webserver implementation which allows fast control and access to JSON formatted data by applications on the same machine or across the LAN or Internet. A RESTful API allows multiple users to access multiple spectrometers in parallel using simple HTML formats.
This driver and web server have been tested on many Linux distributions and the project should be transportable to other platforms as well. Among the features of these implementations are a numeric configuration ID that increments whenever the parameters of a spectrometer are changed (essential for multiuser or multi-process applications) and a timestamp in milliseconds for each spectrum returned (helpful for process control techniques such as PID). The driver and web server operate in non-privileged userspace without administrative permissions.
Software License Agreement (SLA)
All customizable source codes and programs require an executed Software License Agreement and proof of spectrometer purchase. Often a photo of the bottom label of your spectrometer is needed to ensure compatibility of your requested software with your hardware. A photo also provides fantastic proof of ownership. Please email your requests to Contactus@StellarNet.us and provide the required material in advance to expedite this process.
Customization & Compatibility Requests
We currently offer a variety of different “off the shelf” compilations of our stellarnet_driver.so to allow different to allow use on Windows, Linux, RasPi, Mac, and many other options. However, if your specific environment is not available then it can easily be made for you. Please fill out our SLA with your requirements and a technical sales agent will get back to you right away!
Typically recompilations or small modifications to currently available software is billed at our software engineers’ hourly rate of $150/hour with a minimum of 2 hours per project. Please don’t hesitate to contact our team of SpectraWizards for help 🙂
