This package contains the building blocks of model objects, such as Parameter, Observable, Setting, and State types. You may define any custom model, so long as it has parameters. The model object is used in both DSGE.jl and SMC.jl.
See /docs/examples for examples of how to construct your custom model, then use SMC.jl to estimate it (available for any type of model) and DSGE.jl to construct forecasts, shock decompositions, impulse responses, etc. (available for DSGE models).
ModelConstructors.jl is a registered Julia package in the General registry. To install, open your Julia REPL, type ] (enter package manager), and run
pkg> add ModelConstructorsModelConstructors.jl is compatible with Julia v1.x. To use ModelConstructors.jl with Julia 0.7, please use tag v0.1.12 or lower.
The ModelConstructors.jl package is not precompiled by default because when running code in parallel, we want to re-compile
the copy of ModelConstructors.jl on each processor to guarantee the right version of the code is being used. If users do not
anticipate using parallelism, then users ought to change the first line of src/ModelConstructors.jl from
isdefined(Base, :__precompile__) && __precompile__(false)
to
isdefined(Base, :__precompile__) && __precompile__(true)
