Root---Help

CERN and LHC (Large Hadron Collider) use Root environment to analyze big data and have a beautifully written documentation online. Although when working in terminal and using root, there is no help command to provide us with the details of what a particular function, method or a class does. Therefore, the process of coding is slow. Using python's Beautiful Soup package, I have developed a web scraping script for the documentation of Root.

INSTRUCTIONS : Please put it in the alias as help python 'path_to_file'

For this to work please install bs4 and requests using pip install beautifulsoup4 pip install requests pip install webbrowser

With this :

1.you can write help class_name method_name (It will show everything about the method) eg. help TH1F Draw eg help TCanvas SetCanvasSize

2.you can write help class_name -o (to open the page in web-browser) eg. help TF1 -o

About

This python script scrapes the documentation in cern pages and finds help for functions and classes in Root environment.
