match-wrapper

Python wrapper for MATCH, the SFH code by Andrew Dolphin [1].

The documentation for this package does not cover descriptions of the utilities included in MATCH nor the details of their usage. Refer instead to the MATCH 2.5 README and the utility help strings for that information.

match_wrapper requires MATCH to be installed (available from Andy; tested with version 2.5). Python's subprocess module is used to run each utility, so if calcsfh, zcombine, etc. work from the command line, then match_wrapper should work as expected. The following packages are required:

• astropy
• numpy

Documentation build instructions (requires sphinx and numpydoc):

cd match-wrapper/docs
make html
open _build/html/index.html
