11. Solutions to exercises
11.1. Solutions to the Local calibration manager exercises
11.1.1. Solution to Exercise - Caldb 1
The rsys.cfg file should look like this:
[calibs]
standalone = True
#database_dir = <where_the_data_package_is>/niriimg_tutorial/playground
database_dir = <where_the_data_package_is>/niriimg_tutorial
ls <where_the_data_package_is>/niriimg_tutorial should show a file called
cal_manager.db. And
caldb config
Using configuration file: ~/.geminidr/rsys.cfg
Active database directory: <where_the_data_package_is>/niriimg_tutorial/
Database file: <where_the_data_package_is>/niriimg_tutorial/cal_manager.db
The 'standalone' flag is active, meaning that local calibrations will be used
11.1.2. Solution to Exercise - Caldb 2
It is important do to successfully complete Exercise - Caldb 1 before attempting Exercise 2.
First confirm that the new calibration manager, the one niriimg_tutorial
is active.
caldb config
Using configuration file: ~/.geminidr/rsys.cfg
Active database directory: <where_the_data_package_is>/niriimg_tutorial/
Database file: <where_the_data_package_is>/niriimg_tutorial/cal_manager.db
The 'standalone' flag is active, meaning that local calibrations will be used
Question 1
caldb add N20160102S0373_flat.fits
Question 2
caldb list
N20160102S0373_flat.fits /data/workspace/niriimg_tutorial/playground
Question 3
Edit rsys.cfg. Comment out the niriimg_tutorial path and uncomment
the playground path.
[calibs]
standalone = True
database_dir = <where_the_data_package_is>/niriimg_tutorial/playground
#database_dir = <where_the_data_package_is>/niriimg_tutorial
Confirm activation with caldb config.

11.2. Solutions to the reduce exercises
11.2.1. Solution to Exercise - “reduce” 1
reduce @flats.lis -p normalizeFlat:scale=mean --suffix _exercise1
11.2.2. Solution to Exercise - “reduce” 2
reduce @target.lis -r makeSkyFlat --suffix _skyflat
11.2.3. Solution to Exercise - “reduce” 3
While it is not recommended to use a processed dark of the wrong exposure, here is how you would force DRAGONS to use the science’s master dark on the flux standard from the demo.
reduce @stdstar.lis --user_cal processed_dark:N20160102S0423_dark.fits
11.3. Solutions to the Customize recipes exercise
