QCoDeS contrib drivers

This repository contains QCoDeS instrument drivers developed by members of the QCoDeS community. These drivers are not supported by the QCoDeS developers but instead supported on a best effort basis by the developers of the individual drivers.

Getting started

Prerequisites

The drivers in this repository work with and heavily depend on QCoDeS. Start by installing QCoDeS .

Installation

Install the contrib drivers with pip

pip install qcodes_contrib_drivers

Contributing

This repository is open for contribution of new drivers, as well as improvements to existing drivers. Each driver should contain an implementation of the driver and a Jupyter notebook showing how the driver should be used. In addition we strongly encourage writing tests for the drivers. An introduction for writing tests with PyVISA-sim can be found in the QCoDeS documentation linked below.

Drivers are expected to be added to qcodes_contrib_drivers/drivers/MakerOfInstrument/ folder while examples should be added to the docs/examples folder and tests placed in the qcodes_contrib_drivers/tests/MakerOfInstrument folder. Please follow naming conventions for consistency.

For general information about writing drivers and how to write tests refer to the QCoDeS documentation. Especially the examples here are useful.
