To request a feature, please create an issue for this project and I will try my best to be responsive.

Install

Please use the master branch of the zig repository as that is what I'm developing against

The easiest way I've found to get started with dependencies in zig is the following.

• in your main.zig import the dependency.

const astroz = @import("astroz");

• run zig fetch --save git+https://github.com/ATTron/astroz/#HEAD
• inside build.zig

const package = b.dependency("astroz", .{
    .target = target,
    .optimize = optimize,
});

const module = package.module("astroz");

exe.root_module.addImport("astroz", module);

b.installArtifact(exe);

Usage

Examples

Create a CCSDS Parser

W/O Config

const std = @import("std");
const astroz = @import("astroz");
const CCSDS = astroz.ccsds.CCSDS;

pub fn main() !void {
    const raw_test_packet: [16]u8 = .{ 0x78, 0x97, 0xC0, 0x00, 0x00, 0x0A, 0x01, 0x02, 0x03, 0x04, 0x05, 0x06, 0x07, 0x08, 0x09, 0x0A };
    const converted_test_packet = CCSDS.new(&raw_test_packet, null);

    std.debug.print("CCSDS Packet Created:\n{any}", .{converted_test_packet});
}

W/ Config

config.json

{
  "secondary_header_length": 12
}

const std = @import("std");
const astroz = @import("astroz");
const ccsds = astroz.ccsds;
const CCSDS = ccsds.CCSDS;
const Config = ccsds.Config;

pub fn main() !void {
    var gpa = std.heap.GeneralPurposeAllocator(.{}){};
    defer _ = gpa.deinit();
    const allocator = gpa.allocator();

    const config_file = try std.fs.cwd().readFileAlloc(allocator, "config.json", 512);
    defer allocator.free(config_file);

    const config = try ccsds.parse_config(config_file, allocator);

    const raw_test_packet: [16]u8 = .{ 0x78, 0x97, 0xC0, 0x00, 0x00, 0x0A, 0x01, 0x02, 0x03, 0x04, 0x05, 0x06, 0x07, 0x08, 0x09, 0x0A };
    const converted_test_packet = CCSDS.new(&raw_test_packet, config);

    std.debug.print("\nCCSDS Packet Created:\n{any}", .{converted_test_packet});
}

precess a star to July 30, 2005

const std = @import("std");
const astroz = @import("astroz");
const coordinates = astroz.coordinates;
const Datetime = astroz.time.Datetime;

pub fn main() !void {
    const declination = coordinates.Declination.new(40, 10, 10);
    const ra = coordinates.Right_Ascension.new(19, 52, 2);
    const j2000 = coordinates.Equatorial_Coordinate_System.new(declination, ra);

    std.debug.print("Precessed to July 30, 2005:\n{any}", .{j2000.precess(Datetime.new_date(2005, 7, 30))});
}
