Apr 25, 2023Install Wire-Cell Toolkit
There are several ways to install Wire-Cell Toolkit on your local computer (see, e.g. here). To avoid choice overloading and get you started as quickly as possible, we describe an officially recommended way of installation: using the cvmfs network file system and the singularity container. This way allows you to both develop Wire-Cell by itself and integrate it with other software frameworks such as LArSoft. Install CVMFS CVMFS (CernVM File System) is a utility that mounts remote directories over HTTP. CVMFS provides a simple way to distribute software binaries. Follow Brett's instruction for details of installation. For the lazy ubuntu'ers: sudo apt-get install lsb-release wget https://ecsft.cern.ch/dist/cvmfs/cvmfs-release/cvmfs-release-latest_all.deb sudo dpkg -i cvmfs-release-latest_all.deb sudo apt-get update sudo apt-get install cvmfs cvmfs-config-default

Get data Let's use ProtoDUNE-SP as an example. To look at raw data, you need to setup WCT with LArSoft first. Then, you can copy a data file using ifdh cp -D gsiftp://url/to/raw_data . to your local directory. Note that this requires you have set up the FNAL Kerberos authentication already. Otherwise, you can wget an example (~7GB) raw data file here (gsiftp link of the same file). The raw data file has a special root format that contains larsoft objects. You can check the data structure of an event through the useful eventdump.fcl command: $ lar -n1 --nskip 0 -c eventdump.fcl /path/to/raw_data.root Run signal processing The following command performs Wire-Cell signal processing on the raw data using a fhicl configuration wcls-raw-to-sig.fcl:
