Inject and recover synthetic flares to account for de-trending and noise loss in flare energy and determine energy-dependent recovery probability for every flare candidate. Uses ``lightkurve`` under the cover, as well as ``pandas``, ``numpy``, ``pytest``, ``astropy`` and more.Find the documentation at altaipony.readthedocs.io_Installation^^^^^^^^^^^^^Use pip to install AltaiPony>>> pip install altaiponyOr install directly from the repository:>>> git clone https://github.com/ekaterinailin/AltaiPony.git>>> cd AltaiPony>>> python setup.py installGetting Started^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^See this notebook_ for an easy introduction, also docs_.Problems?^^^^^^^^^Often, when something does not work in **AltaiPony**, and this documentation is useless, troubleshooting can be done by diving into the extensive **lightkurve** docs_. Otherwise, you can always shoot Ekaterina an email_ or directly open an issue on GitHub_. Many foreseeable problems will be due to bugs in **AltaiPony** or bad instructions on this website.Contribute to AltaiPony^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^**AltaiPony** is under active development on Github_. If you use **AltaiPony** in your research and find yourself missing a functionality, I recommend opening an issue on GitHub_ or shooting Ekaterina an email_. Please do either of the two before you open a pull request. This may save you a lot of development time.How to cite this work^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^If you end up using this package for your science, please cite Ilin et al.
