The goal of sunkit-pyvista is to allow 3D visualization of solar physics data with pyvista.

See the installation instructions for more information.

If you want to develop sunkit-pyvista you will need to install it from GitHub. For detailed installation instructions, see Development installation in the sunpy docs. These are for "sunpy" but the same works for sunkt-pyvista with a quick name substitution.

You need to use your local environment and make sure its up to date. This does not with tox for now.

2 command line arguments can be passed to pytest:

• update_image_cache : Resets the image_cache directory with new figures generated from your local environment.
• ignore_image_cache : Ignores the image cache and will not perform any image comparison.

Example usage:

pytest -s -vvv --update_image_cache sunkit_pyvista/
