Code to generate Feynman diagrams using pyfeyn

This repo uses Python 2.7 and depends on a custom version of pyfeyn.

Installation instructions:

pip install PyX==0.12.1
pip install git+https://github.com/kpedro88/pyfeyn.git@v1.2.0

All drawing classes in the custom version of pyfeyn can be constructed using kwargs. This enables diagrams to be completely specified as Python dictionaries, to reduce code duplication and improve flexibility.

There is a single driver script, generateDiagram.py, which interprets an input dictionary to assemble the specified diagram.

Options:
  -h, --help                       show this help message and exit
  -d DICTFILE, --dict=DICTFILE     file containing dict w/ diagram components
  -o OUTPUT, --output=OUTPUT       output name for diagram images (default = [dict name]+'_feyn')
  -p PFORMAT, --pformat=PFORMAT    comma-separated list of print formats (default = ['pdf', 'png'])
