@section meas_algorithms_detection_Purpose      Description

@copybrief SourceDetectionTask

@section meas_algorithms_detection_Initialize   Task initialisation

@copydoc \_\_init\_\_

@section meas_algorithms_detection_Invoke       Invoking the Task

@copydoc run

@section meas_algorithms_detection_Config       Configuration parameters

See @ref SourceDetectionConfig

@section meas_algorithms_detection_Debug                Debug variables

The @link lsst.pipe.base.cmdLineTask.CmdLineTask command line task@endlink interface supports a
flag @c -d to import @b debug.py from your @c PYTHONPATH; see @ref baseDebug for more about @b debug.py files.

The available variables in SourceDetectionTask are:
<DL>
  <DT> @c display
  <DD>
  - If True, display the exposure on afwDisplay.Display's frame 0.
    +ve detections in blue, -ve detections in cyan
  - If display > 1, display the convolved exposure on frame 1
</DL>

@section meas_algorithms_detection_Example      A complete example of using SourceDetectionTask

This code is in @link measAlgTasks.py@endlink in the examples directory, and can be run as @em e.g.
@code
examples/measAlgTasks.py --doDisplay
@endcode
@dontinclude measAlgTasks.py
The example also runs the SingleFrameMeasurementTask; see @ref meas_algorithms_measurement_Example for more
explanation.

Import the task (there are some other standard imports; read the file if you're confused)
@skipline SourceDetectionTask

We need to create our task before processing any data as the task constructor
can add an extra column to the schema, but first we need an almost-empty Schema
@skipline makeMinimalSchema
after which we can call the constructor:
@skip SourceDetectionTask.ConfigClass
@until detectionTask

We're now ready to process the data (we could loop over multiple exposures/catalogues using the same
task objects).  First create the output table:
@skipline afwTable

And process the image
@skipline result
(You may not be happy that the threshold was set in the config before creating the Task rather than being set
separately for each exposure.  You @em can reset it just before calling the run method if you must, but we
should really implement a better solution).

We can then unpack and use the results:
@skip sources
@until print
