Routine Descriptions

CL_CONFIG

[Next Routine] [List of Routines]
NAME:    cl_config

PURPOSE:
  This procedure serves as the Cluster configuration file.  It sets global (system)
  variables and initializes devices

  This procedure will define the location of data files and the data server.
  This procedure is intended to be called from within the "CL_INIT" procedure.

  This should be the only Cluster file that requires modification for use in different
  locations.

  There is no need to modify this file if:
     - Your computer is an SSL UNIX machine that mounts "/disks/data/"   (i.e. ALL Linux and Solaris machines at SSL)
     - You use a portable computer that will be caching files on a local hard drive.


  Settings  in this file will be overridden by settings in the environment.
  (see setup_themis or setup_themis_bash for examples of setting environment
  variables on UNIX-like systems.  The environment can also be set on Windows
  systems.)

KEYWORDS
   NO_COLOR_SETUP   Do not do color setup if taken care for already
   COLORTABLE       Overwrite the default colortable initialization

CL_INIT

[Previous Routine] [Next Routine] [List of Routines]
NAME:    cl_init

PURPOSE: 
   Initializes system variables for Cluster. Can be called from idl_startup to set
   custom locations.

NOTE:
   The system variable !cluster is defined here, just like !THEMIS.  
   The elements of this structure are explained below:

   !cluster.LOCAL_DATA_DIR    This is the root location for all cluster data files.
                  The MMS software expects all data files to reside in specific subdirectories relative
                  to this root directory.;

   !cluster.REMOTE_DATA_DIR  This is the URL of the server that can provide the data files.
                  (default is: "https://spdf.gsfc.nasa.gov/pub/data/cluster/")
                  if the software does not find a needed file in LOCAL_DATA_DIR,
                  then it will attempt to download the data from the URL and REMOTE_DATA_DIR is defined,
                  the software will attempt to download the file from REMOTE_DATA_DIR, place it in LOCAL_DATA_DIR
                  with the same relative pathname, and then continue processing.

   !cluster.MIRROR_DATA_DIR  - this is a mirror directory (typically over the local network); setting this
                 will cause the load routines to check this for files after checking your local data directory. 
                 If files are found here, they're copied to your local data directory, and the copied files
                 are loaded
   
   Regarding data directory environment variables: it is highly advised to use the mission specific environment variables
                  (e.g., CLUSTER_DATA_DIR) rather than ROOT_DATA_DIR to avoid conflicts with other missions/projects
  
   *** please note that setting REMOTE_DATA_DIR will have no effect when loading data from the LASP SDC, due to the 
       custom web services at the SDC; this still allows you override the remote path to the data at SPDF, though ***
   
KEYWORDS:
   RESET:           Reset !mms to values in environment (or values in keywords).
   LOCAL_DATA_DIR:  use given value for local_data_dir, rather than environment. Only works on
                    initial call or reset.
   REMOTE_DATA_DIR: Use given value for remote_data_dir, rather than env.  Only works on inital
                    call or reset.
   MIRROR_DATA_DIR:  network mirror directory - for loading data from the local network; note that this 
                    will copy files to your local data directory if they're found on the mirror, and this is
                    only checked if the files do not currently exist in the LOCAL_DATA_DIR. Only works on inital
                    call or reset.
   NO_COLOR_SETUP   do not set colors if already taken care of
   DEBUGGING_GUI:   set this keyword if you intend to put 'stop's in any GUI widget code, i.e., if you're debugging
                    any code that involves widget events (EVA or the SPEDAS GUI)
   


HISTORY:
 2015-04-10, moka, Created based on 'thm_init'
 2015-02-15, egrimes, commented out dialog_message in CDF version error due to a bug on MacOS X 10.11.6/IDL 8.5
 2018-04-05, egrimes, added MIRROR_DATA_DIR functionality
 2019-08-28, egrimes, made debugging fix (!debug_process_events=0) dependent on a keyword (DEBUGGING_GUI)
                      this debugging fix is known to cause problems with widgets on some machines
 2019-12-23, egrimes, forked for Cluster

 PROCEDURE:
         cl_load_data
         
 PURPOSE:
         Load Cluster data from NASA/SPDF
         
         This routine is not meant to be called directly - please use 
         the instrument specific wrappers: cl_load_xxx 
 
 KEYWORDS:
         See the instrument load routines.
         
 EXAMPLE:
    cl_load_fgm, probe=1, level='l2', trange=['2016-01-10', '2016-01-11']
