yuriblaise / astrolograph

A node graph system for visualizing astrological data.

AstroloGraph

Node graph-based astrological data viewer.

NOTE: This software is still in development and features may be missing/buggy/broken. Calculations should be double-checked for accuracy (especially time zones).

Build

Linux (tested on Ubuntu 18.04)

• sudo apt-get update
• sudo apt-get install build-essential cmake libglfw3-dev libglew-dev libcurl4-openssl-dev
• ./make-release.sh
  • Alternatively:
    • mkdir build && cd build && cmake -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release ..

Basic Instructions

• TODO: Improve Instructions
• Nodes have inputs(left side) and/or outputs(right side) that can be connected to other nodes by clicking and dragging.
• To add a node, right click on the graph background and select from the menu, or press the associated key (denoted in parentheses below). Then click where you want to place it (shift+click for multiple).

Node Types

Data Sources

• (T) Time Node (date and time)
• (S) Time Span Node (plays over a range of time)
• (L) Location Node (latitude/longitude/altitude)

Calculation

• (C) Chart Node (calculates positions via the Swiss Ephemeris)
• (P) Progress Node (calculates secondary progressed date)

Data/Visualization

• (V) Chart View Node (view a chart)
  • Interactive chart display.
    • Hover over any aspect symbol to show its orb and any objects involved.
    • Hover over any object to see its placement.
      • Hold SHIFT to highlight object aspects.
      • Hold ALT to see inside degrees text for its placement.
        • Hold CTRL+ALT show inside degrees text (long, with explanation).
    • Hover over any sign or house to see the objects it contains.
  • With the mouse over the view, hold a key and scroll the mouse to manually adjust time and location.
    • TIME: number keys 1-6
      • 1 --> adjust by year
      • 2 --> adjust by month
      • 3 --> adjust by day
      • 4 --> adjust by hour
      • 5 --> adjust by minute
      • 6 --> adjust by second
    • LOCATION: keys Q/W/E
      • Q --> adjust latitude
      • W --> adjust longitude
      • E --> adjust altitude
    • By default, each parameter steps by one unit. Modifier keys will apply a multiplier:
      • SHIFT --> x0.1
      • CTRL --> x10
      • ALT --> x60
• (X) Chart Compare Node (view comparison between two charts)
• (D) Chart Data Node (view raw positional data)
• (A) Aspect Node (view in-depth aspect data)
• (M) Moon Node (render moon phase)
• () Plot Node (plot chart positions over a time range)
