Cosmology, halo, and large-scale structure tools
Project description
Colossus is an astrophysics toolkit, the name is an acronym for COsmology, haLO, and large-Scale StrUcture toolS. Please consult the Online Documentation for details.
Installation
The easiest way to install Colossus is by executing:
pip install colossus
You might need to prefix this command with sudo. Alternatively, you can clone the BitBucket repository by executing:
git clone git@bitbucket.org:bdiemer/colossus.git
After installing colossus, you should run its unit test suite to ensure that the code works as expected. In python, execute:
from colossus.tests import run_tests
The output should look something like this:
test_home_dir (colossus.tests.test_utils.TCGen) ... ok
test_Ez (colossus.tests.test_cosmology.TCComp) ... ok
...
test_DK14ConstructorOuter (colossus.tests.test_halo_profile.TCDK14) ... ok
test_DK14ConstructorWrapper (colossus.tests.test_halo_profile.TCDK14) ... ok
