IPython Tab Curation

All devices in this package have optional namespace curation for their ipython tab completion. Most ophyd devices have a large number of functions that are either not interesting to an interactive user or are better off being left untouched in interactive sessions. To solve this, every class has a whitelist of attributes that are findable via ipython tab completion. This feature is disabled by default, but you can enable or disable this with simple commands:

set_engineering_mode(expert)

Switches between expert and user modes for BaseInterface features.

get_engineering_mode()

Get the last value set by set_engineering_mode().

For more information on how to add a tab completion whitelist to a class, see the BaseInterface documentation.
