[Chimera-users] Way to extract path to file from model ID

[Oliver Clarke]

That worked - here is the amended python snippet in case it is useful to anyone else:

def cmd_lowpass(lowpass,args):
  from Midas.midas_text import doExtensionFunc
  def lowpass(model,resol):
    import os
    from chimera import runCommand
    from chimera import openModels
    import subprocess
    import sys
    #You may need to change the below to .bash_profile if on mac.
    #You must have EMAN2 in your bash path for this to work correctly.
    bashrc_path=os.path.expanduser("~/.bashrc")
    freq=1.0/resol
    command="cd ~; system mkdir chimera_tmp; cd chimera_tmp"
    runCommand(command)
    pathvar=os.path.expanduser("~/chimera_tmp")
    os.chdir(pathvar)
    e2string="--process=filter.lowpass.gauss:cutoff_freq="+str(freq)
    model_no=int(model[1])
    mrc_in=openModels.list()[model_no].openedAs[0]
    mrc_out=pathvar+"/lowpass.mrc"
    e2command="source "+bashrc_path+"; bash -c \"e2proc3d.py"+" "+mrc_in+" "+mrc_out+" "+e2string+"\""
    for mol in openModels.list():
      if mol.openedAs[0]=="lowpass.mrc":
        runCommand("close {}".format(mol))
    proc=subprocess.Popen(e2command,stdout=subprocess.PIPE, stderr=subprocess.PIPE,shell=True)
    out, err = proc.communicate()
    print 'stdout:', out
    print 'stderr:', err
    runCommand("open lowpass.mrc")
  doExtensionFunc(lowpass,args)
from Midas.midas_text import addCommand
addCommand("lowpass", cmd_lowpass, help=False)
