RM-lite

A mini fork of RM-Tools - RM-synthesis and RM-clean on polarised radio spectra, for both 1D spectra and 3D cubes (the latter via dask).

This just exposes a Python API. No plotting, I/O utilities, or CLI are provided. See the main fork of RM-Tools for that functionality.

The goal of this project is to provide low code surface area with high reliability, performance, and developer ergonomics.

Warning: This is very much a work-in-progress. Do not expect stability for a while.

Installation

PyPI release:

pip install rm-lite

Current GitHub main commit:

pip install git+https://github.com/AlecThomson/rm-lite.git

Usage

Docs: rm-lite.readthedocs.io

This is a library, by design - no CLI is provided. Import the API and call it from your own Python code; see the docs for usage examples.

Citing

If you use this package in a publication, please cite main fork's ASCL entry for the time being.

Code formatting and style is handled by ruff, with tests run by pytest. A prek hook is available to handle the autoformatting. After installing the dev dependencies, you can install the hooks by running:
