Package: cosmopy
cosmopy|version| |build-status| |coverage|Quickly calculate cosmological parameters.Provides both command-line and API interfaces.Uses the machinery from theastropy.cosmologypackage.The user provides an input parameter (e.g. redshift or luminosity-distance) and recieves the entire set of cosmological measures corresponding to the epoch thus specified.The below gif shows three examples: inputting a redshift, a luminosity distance (-dl 400Mpc), and an age of the universe (-ta 3.2Gyr)... image::https://raw.githubusercontent.com/lzkelley/cosmopy/dev/docs/cosmopy_demo.gif:height: 600pxInstallationUsingpip:::pip install cosmopyFrom source:::git clonegit@github.com:lzkelley/cosmopy.git
pip install cosmopyUsagecosmopycan be used via the command-linecosmocommand, or via python API by importing the module directly.Command Line:::$ cosmo --help

   usage: cosmo [-h] [-z Z] [-a A] [-dc DC] [-dl DL] [-tl TL] [-ta TA] [-v]

   optional arguments:
     -h, --help      show this help message and exit
     -z Z            target redshift z
     -a A            target scale factor a
     -dc DC, -cd DC  target coming distance D_C
     -dl DL, -ld DL  target luminosity distance D_L
     -tl TL, -lt TL  target look-back time T_L
     -ta TA, -at TA  target universe age T_A
     -v, --version   print version information.For example, entering an input redshift of 0.2:::$ cosmo -z 0.2

The function returns a dictionary with the computed values as key: value pairs (both strings).  For example:::$ python -c "import cosmopy; print(cosmopy.api('dl', '1.2 Gpc'))"
