``Fruitbat`` is an open source python package used to estimate the redshift of 
Fast Radio Burst (FRB) from their dispersion measure. ``Fruitbat`` combines 
various dispersion measure (DM) and redshift relations with the YMW16 galactic 
dispersion measure model into a single easy to use API. 

Documentation
-------------
The documentation for ``fruitbat`` can be found at https://fruitbat.readthedocs.io/.

Installation
------------
You can install the latest release of ``fruitbat`` from PyPi_ by running 
the following::

    pip install fruitbat

You can install the latest development version of ``fruitbat`` by cloning 
this repository::

    git clone https://github.com/abatten/fruitbat
    cd fruitbat
    pip install .

.. _PyPi: https://pypi.python.org/pypi/fruitbat 

Requirements
------------
Below are the listed requirements for running ``fruitbat`` and the purpose for
each requirement.

 - numpy: Array manipulation

 - scipy: Modules for integration and interpolation

 - astropy: Modules for cosmology, coordinates, constants and units

 - matplotlib: Modules for plotting

 - pandas: Reading csv files from FRBCAT

 - pyymw16: Python wrapper for YMW16 galactic dispersion measure model.

 - e13tools: Utility tools for writing docstrings.

Usage
-----
If you want to get started using ``fruitbat`` there is a `Getting Started`_ 
section of the documentation made just for you! Otherwise the tl;dr is the
following:

Most of the calculations will be centred around the `Frb class`_. You can
can define an instance of the `Frb class`_ with a dispersion measure. 
To calculate the redshift of the FRB use the method 
`calc_redshift`_.

::

    >>> import fruitbat
    >>> FRB121102 = fruitbat.Frb(557, dm_excess=369)
    >>> FRB121102.calc_redshift()
    <Quantity 0.37581945>

The `calc_redshift`_ function can also be passed a method and/or a cosmology.
The method will specify which DM-redshift relation to assume and the cosmology
will specify which cosmology to assume.

::

    >>> FRB121102.calc_redshift(method="Zhang2018", cosmology="Planck18")
    <Quantity 0.42166019>

It is also possible to specify the coordinates of the burst and use the 
`calc_dm_galaxy`_ function to calculate the DM contribution from the Milky Way
using the YMW16 model. Performing `calc_dm_galaxy`_ will automatically
calculate the excess dispersion measure for the redshift calculation.

::

    >>> FRB190222 = fruitbat.Frb(500, raj="12:34:43.5", decj="2:34:15.2")
    >>> FRB190222.calc_dm_galaxy()
    <Quantity 22.43696785 pc / cm3>
    >>> FRB190222.calc_redshift()
    <Quantity 0.4808557>
