CosmoForge.Meta Package

Meta is the umbrella package for CosmoForge, designed to provide a convenient way to install and manage all CosmoForge components. It serves as the main entry point for users who want to install the complete CosmoForge framework.

Overview

The Meta package is a meta-package that:

Dependency Management: Automatically installs cosmocore and qube packages
Unified Installation: Provides single-command installation of entire framework
Version Coordination: Ensures compatible versions across all CosmoForge components
Project Organization: Maintains project-wide metadata and documentation

Purpose

Installation Convenience

Instead of installing packages individually:

# Without meta package
pip install cosmocore
pip install qube

Users can install everything at once:

# With meta package
pip install cosmoforge.meta

Dependency Coordination

The meta package ensures that:

Compatible versions of all components are installed together
Dependencies between cosmocore and qube are properly resolved
Future CosmoForge packages are automatically included

Project Structure

The meta package coordinates the following CosmoForge components:

Package	Description
CosmoForge.CosmoCore Package	Core mathematical and computational infrastructure
CosmoForge.QUBE Package	Fisher matrix and QML power spectrum estimation

Installation

To install the complete CosmoForge framework:

# Install from PyPI (when available)
pip install cosmoforge.meta

# Install from source
git clone https://github.com/ggalloni/CosmoForge.git
cd CosmoForge
pip install -e .

This will automatically install:

cosmoforge.cosmocore - Core functionality
cosmoforge.qube - Analysis engines
All required dependencies (numpy, scipy, healpy, etc.)

Usage

After installation, import and use any CosmoForge component:

# Import from cosmocore
from cosmoforge.cosmocore import Core, InputParams

# Import from qube
from cosmoforge.qube import Fisher, Spectra

# Use the full framework
params = InputParams("config.yaml")
fisher = Fisher(params)
fisher.run()

Development

For developers working on CosmoForge:

# Clone repository
git clone https://github.com/ggalloni/CosmoForge.git
cd CosmoForge

# Install in development mode
pip install -e .

# Install development dependencies
pip install -e ".[dev]"

This installs all packages in editable mode, allowing changes to be immediately reflected without reinstallation.
