Here are Python pipelines I have delevloped for my work.

Image Reduction

reduce.py – This is for reducing images using IRAF. It does bias subtraction, flats division, illumination correction. It does not stack or shift images. As a default it does not do darks, but if you uncomment part of the code it can also handle darks.

Photometry

phot.py - This is for performing photometry on frames which have already been aligned. Currently it uses 8 reference stars, but feel free to edit the code to do more or less stars. The coordinates of the individual stars as well as the formatting file should be placed in the /object directory together. The files are ds9.reg and output.cd.

pointing.py – This is for extracting the information from the .mag files the IRAF routine daophot produces and putting them into a .npz format easily read by Python.
