[phy](https://github.com/kwikteam/phy) is an open source neurophysiological data analysis package in Python. It provides features for sorting, analyzing, and visualizing extracellular recordings made with high-density multielectrode arrays containing hundreds to thousands of recording sites.
## Overview
phy contains the following subpackages:
phy.cluster.manual: an API for manual sorting, used to create graphical interfaces for neurophysiological data
phy.gui: a generic API for creating desktop applications with PyQt.
phy.plot: a generic API for creating high-performance plots with VisPy (using the graphics processor via OpenGL)
phy targets developers and doesn’t provide any I/O code. It only provides Python routines to process and visualize data.
## phy-contrib
The [phy-contrib](https://github.com/kwikteam/phy-contrib) repo contains a set of plugins with integrated GUIs that work with dedicated automatic clustering software. Currently it provides:
KwikGUI: a manual sorting GUI that works with data processed with [klusta](http://klusta.readthedocs.org/en/latest/), an automatic clustering package.
TemplateGUI: a manual sorting GUI that works with data processed with Spyking Circus and KiloSort (not released yet), which are template-matching-based spike sorting algorithms.
## Installation
Note: the installation instructions will be simplified soon.
Make sure that you have [miniconda](http://conda.pydata.org/miniconda.html) installed. You can choose the Python 3.5 64-bit version for your operating system (Linux, Windows, or OS X).
Download the [environment file](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/kwikteam/phy/master/installer/environment.yml).
Open a terminal (on Windows, cmd, not Powershell) in the directory where you saved the file and type:
`bash conda env create -n phy source activate phy # omit the `source` on Windows pip install phy phycontrib `
Done! Now, to use phy, you have to first type source activate phy in a terminal (omit the source on Windows), and then call phy.
### Updating the software
To get the latest version of the software, open a terminal and type:
` source activate phy # omit the `source` on Windows pip install phy phycontrib --upgrade `
