Overview

This page is maintained by the UConn group (Eric Fuchey + Andrew Puckett) and as of February 14, 2020 is specific to the '''''master''''' branch of libsbsdig on github.

===Purpose===
This page documents the libsbsdig code, which purpose is to transform the output data from [https://hallaweb.jlab.org/wiki/index.php/Documentation_of_g4sbs G4SBS] to digital values such as ADCs or TDCs.
These produce files which can be analyzed with [https://hallaweb.jlab.org/wiki/index.php/Documentation_of_SBS-offline SBS-offline].

Getting the code and building the program

===Prerequisites===

*Working [https://root.cern.ch/drupal/ ROOT] installation. '''libsbsdig is compatible with ROOT version 5 and ROOT version 6'''. '''''ROOT 6 is strongly recommended'''''
*Working [https://redmine.jlab.org/projects/podd/wiki analyzer] installation. '''libsbsdig is compatible with analyzer versions 1.6 and beyond'''.
*Working [https://hallaweb.jlab.org/wiki/index.php/Documentation_of_SBS-offline SBS-offline] installation.

===Downloading the repository===

The code is hosted on a github repository owned by JLab. To clone via ssh (preferred method on JLab batch farm), do:

{| class="wikitable" style="background: #BFBFBF;" |- | '''git clone git@github.com:JeffersonLab/libsbsdig.git''' |- |}

For this method to work, the ssh public key on the machine where you want to get the code must be added to your github account (see [https://help.github.com/articles/generating-ssh-keys/ Guide] to generating ssh keys and adding to your github.com account.)

Cloning the repository defaults to the "master" branch.

===Building and installing the library===

in the library directory, type '''make'''.

A 'cmake' build is under development, but not ready yet.
