Importing for satlas #14

Closed rubendegroote closed 9 years ago

rubendegroote commented 9 years ago

We should make it easier for users to import from satlas.

Rught now, we need to do: from satlas.spectrum import Spectrum.

There are two issues with this: 1: We may change our file system, which breaks existing code. 2: Users need to know the structure of the code to be able to import. For now, this is fine, but long-term, we may want to evolve to (even) more of a black box.

We can solve these issues quite easily by writing appropriate init.py files and defining all in .py files. (https://docs.python.org/2/tutorial/modules.html)

I had a quick try using the all variable in the packages. I pushed this to the latest version of development, might want to have a look at it.

Importing now works; refining this should be possible, but the code is much more accessible now.
