Downloading data

arvi can use the DACE API to download data products for a specific target.
Each RV instance has three distinct methods for downloading CCFs, S1Ds, and S2Ds.

from arvi import RV

s = RV('HD69830')

s.download_ccf()
s.download_s1d()
s.download_s2d()

By default, this will download the files into a folder called [star]_downloads. The methods all share the same arguments and are documented below.

As an example, we can download the 5th S2D file from ESPRESSO19 into a specific directory

s.download_s1d(instrument='ESPRESSO19', index=5, directory='some_directory')

Note

Depending on your network, the downloads can be slow, especially when downloading many large S2D files like those from ESPRESSO for example.

`arvi.timeseries.RV.download_ccf(instrument=None, index=None, limit=None, directory=None, clobber=False, symlink=False, load=True, **kwargs)`
