To get started with Basilisk, several tutorials are provided. The
documentation lists the scenarios in an order that facilitates learning basic Basilisk features. In the source code they
are stored under src\examples\
. A good start would be to run scenarioBasicOrbit.py
.
To run with the tutorials, it is suggested the user makes a copy of these tutorial files, and use the copies in order
to learn, test and experiment. Copy the folder {basiliskPath}/src/examples
into a new folder, and change to that
directory.
To run the default scenario of scenarioBasicOrbit
, in the directory of the copied tutorials, execute the python
script: python3 scenarioBasicOrbit.py
Now, when you want to use a tutorial, navigate inside that folder, and edit and execute the copied integrated tests.
We are working on the ability to develop custom BSK modules outside of the Basilisk folder. This will enable developers to safely write their own BSK modules and still be able to do a drop in replacement of future BSK releases.
To use the standalone 3D Visualization, download the Vizard.
This is in development, but does provide a 3D view of many of the simulation states.
Questions and answers are fielded in the project's Github Discussions.
