qasm2image
==========

The qasm2image repository provides functions to represent quantum circuits written following the `OpenQASM <https://github.com/QISKit/qiskit-openqasm>`_ specification.

Installation
------------

Dependencies
^^^^^^^^^^^^

The tool and all the dependencies are available via the PIP tool. See the installation instructions below.

Installation procedure
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

.. code-block:: shell

   pip3 install cffi
   pip3 install qasm2image

Usage
-----

In a Python environnement
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

.. code-block:: python

   # Import the functions
   from qasm2image import qasm2svg
   from qasm2image import qasm2png
   # Generate your QASM string (either read from a file or generate a circuit and ask for its QASM).
   qasm_str = "..."
   # Define the basis used to represent the circuit
   basis = 'u1,u2,u3,U,cx'
   # Compute the SVG representation
   svg_str = qasm2svg(qasm_str, basis=basis, show_clbits=True)
   # Compute the PNG representation
   png_bytes = qasm2png(qasm_str, basis=basis, show_clbits=True)
   # Types of the outputs
   assert type(svg_str) is str
   assert type(png_bytes) is bytes
   # Write the result into files
   with open('circuit.svg', 'w') as svg_file:
       svg_file.write(svg_str)
   # Don't forget to write in *binary* mode for PNG
   with open('circuit.png', 'wb') as png_file:
       png_file.write(png_bytes)

In a shell environnement
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

A script is provided to change QASM code directly from the command line.

.. code-block:: shell

   $ qasm2image -h
   usage: qasm2image [-h] [-b BASIS] [--hide-clbits] [-s SCALE]
                     input_file output_file

   Transform a quantum circuit in QASM format to an image format.

   positional arguments:
     input_file            the QASM file implementing the circuit to transform
     output_file           the image file that will be generated by the tool

   optional arguments:
     -h, --help            show this help message and exit
     -b BASIS, --basis BASIS
                           a comma-separated list of gate names which represent
                           the gate basis in which the circuit will be decomposed
     --hide-clbits         if present, classical bits will not be represented
     -s SCALE, --scale SCALE
                           scale of the PNG image. SVG output is not affected by
                           this parameter
