Using Specviz in a Jupyter Notebook

Specviz is developed to fully support analyzing spectra within your existing Jupyter notebooks! To use Specviz, install jdaviz in your notebook’s python environment and add a new cell wherever you would like to use Specviz.

>>> # Import specviz
>>> from jdaviz import SpecViz
>>> # Instantiate an instance of Specviz
>>> specviz = SpecViz()
>>> # Display Specviz
>>> specviz.app   

To extract the data currently loaded into the viewer:

specviz.get_spectra()

or use the lower-level glue interface:

specviz.app.get_data_from_viewer('spectrum-viewer')

To learn how to add data and use Specviz, including the corresponding API calls, please see our other Specviz Documentation.
