Model Documentation Checks
All models added to SasView need to be properly documented. This means there should be (in order):
a model name:
- this is the name string in the .py file
- titles should be:
- all in lower case
- without spaces (use underscores to separate words instead)
- without any capitalization or CamelCase
- without incorporating the word 'model'
- examples: barbell not BarBell; broad_peak not BroadPeak; barbell not BarBellModel
a short description:
- this is the title string in the .py file: this becomes a tooltip in the GUI
- the .py file also contains a description string: this becomes the short description of the model in the GUI
a model parameter table:
- this will be auto-generated from the parameters in the .py file
- scale and background are implicit to all models, they do not need to be added separately
- parameter names should follow the mathematical convention; eg, radius_core not core_radius, or sld_solvent not solvent_sld
- use python -m sasmodels.list_pars to see all the parameter names currently in use: re-use as many as possible!!!
- model parameter names should be consistent between different models, so sld_solvent, for example, should have exactly the same name in every model
- every parameter should have units (or the word None)
- units should be properly formatted; ie, using sub-/super-scripts and using negative exponents rather than / operators
- fancy units markup are contained in the variable RST_UNITS in sasmodels/generate.py
- if necessary, add new units to RST_UNITS, use the macros defined in doc/rst_prolog, or add your own
- every parameter must have a default value
a long description:
- this is the RST text enclosed between the r""" and """ delimiters in the .py file
a definition of the model:
- as part of the long description
a formula defining the function the model calculates:
- as part of the long description
- images of math functions should be replaced with Latex equivalents:
- use the live demo Mathjax page ( http://www.mathjax.org/) to make sure the equation looks as expected
- or copy the Latex code from Paul Kienzle's document ( http://sasview.org/attachment/wiki/SasModels%20Work%20Package/Equations.docx.pdf)
an explanation of the parameters:
- as part of the long description
- explaining how the symbols in the formula map to the model parameters
a plot of the function
- using the default parameters
a figure caption:
- as part of the long description
- the figure number is auto-generated
at least one reference:
- as part of the long description
- specifying where the reader can obtain more information about the model
the name of the author
- as part of the long description
- the .py file should also contain a comment identifying who converted/created the model file
