NAME¶
siril - image processing tool for astronomy and other applications
SYNOPSIS¶
siril [options] [file]
siril-cli [options] [file]
DESCRIPTION¶
Siril is a powerful image processing tool designed for
improving the signal-to-noise ratio of astronomical images. It offers a wide
range of tools for aligning, stacking, and enhancing images from various
file formats, including image sequences. It features a high-precision 32-bit
floating-point engine and supports parallel processing to run quickly.
The application is divided into 2 binaries. The first one, siril, launches the
program in graphic mode. The second one, siril-cli, is a command line
interface allowing to execute the following options.
OPTIONS¶
- -v, --version
- Prints the program name and version, then exits.
- -i conf_file
- Starts Siril with the specified configuration file.
- -f, --format
- Prints all supported input image formats, depending on the libraries detected at compile-time.
- -c, --copyright
- Prints copyright information, then exits.
- -h, --help
- Displays a brief usage summary.
- -p
- Starts Siril without the graphical user interface and uses named pipes to accept commands and print logs and status information. On POSIX systems, the named pipes are created in /tmp/siril_commands.in and /tmp/siril_commands.out.
- -r input_pipe_path, --inpipe=input_pipe_path
- Provides an alternative path for the input pipe that receives the commands if -p is passed. The pipe can be created by an external program with the mkfifo(1) command.
- -w output_pipe_path, --outpipe=output_pipe_path
- Provides an alternative path for the output pipe that prints logs and status updates if -p is passed. The pipe can be created by an external program with the mkfifo(1) command.
- -d working_directory, --directory=working_directory
- Sets the specified path as the current working directory.
- -s script_file, --script=script_file
- Starts Siril without the graphical user interface and runs the specified script instead. Scripts are text files that contain a list of commands to be executed sequentially. In these files, lines starting with a # are considered as comments. If this option is not passed, pipe operation is assumed as if -p had been passed.
- -s -
- Redirects inputs written after - to stdin.
- file
- Opens the specified image or sequence file immediately after startup.
FILES¶
- ~/.config/siril/config.ini
- User preferences that can be overridden by the -i option.
- /usr/share/siril/siril.css
- The style sheet used to change the look of the graphical user interface. This is useful for customization or if a GTK theme is incompatible with some colored elements of Siril.
