    '''Runs the Box Least Squares Fitting Search for transit-shaped signals.

    Based on the version of BLS in Astropy 3.1:
    `astropy.stats.BoxLeastSquares`. If you don't have Astropy 3.1, this module
    will fail to import. Note that by default, this implementation of
    `bls_serial_pfind` doesn't use the `.autoperiod()` function from
    `BoxLeastSquares` but uses the same auto frequency-grid generation as the
    functions in `periodbase.kbls`. If you want to use Astropy's implementation,
    set the value of `autofreq` kwarg to 'astropy'.

    The dict returned from this function contains a `blsmodel` key, which is the
    generated model from Astropy's BLS. Use the `.compute_stats()` method to
    calculate the required stats like SNR, depth, duration, etc.

    Parameters
    ----------

    times,mags,errs : np.array
        The magnitude/flux time-series to search for transits.

    magsarefluxes : bool
        If the input measurement values in `mags` and `errs` are in fluxes, set
        this to True.

    startp,endp : float
        The minimum and maximum periods to consider for the transit search.

    stepsize : float
        The step-size in frequency to use when constructing a frequency grid for
        the period search.

    mintransitduration,maxtransitduration : float
        The minimum and maximum transitdurations (in units of phase) to consider
        for the transit search.

    ndurations : int
        The number of transit durations to use in the period-search.

    autofreq : bool or str
        If this is True, the values of `stepsize` and `nphasebins` will be
        ignored, and these, along with a frequency-grid, will be determined
        based on the following relations::

            nphasebins = int(ceil(2.0/mintransitduration))
            if nphasebins > 3000:
                nphasebins = 3000

            stepsize = 0.25*mintransitduration/(times.max()-times.min())

            minfreq = 1.0/endp
            maxfreq = 1.0/startp
            nfreq = int(ceil((maxfreq - minfreq)/stepsize))

        If this is False, you must set `startp`, `endp`, and `stepsize` as
        appropriate.

        If this is str == 'astropy', will use the
        `astropy.stats.BoxLeastSquares.autoperiod()` function to calculate the
        frequency grid instead of the kbls method.

    blsobjective : {'likelihood','snr'}
        Sets the type of objective to optimize in the `BoxLeastSquares.power()`
        function.

    blsmethod : {'fast','slow'}
        Sets the type of method to use in the `BoxLeastSquares.power()`
        function.

    blsoversample : {'likelihood','snr'}
        Sets the `oversample` kwarg for the `BoxLeastSquares.power()` function.

    blsmintransits : int
        Sets the `min_n_transits` kwarg for the `BoxLeastSquares.autoperiod()`
        function.

    blsfreqfactor : float
        Sets the `frequency_factor` kwarg for the `BoxLeastSquares.autperiod()`
        function.

    periodepsilon : float
        The fractional difference between successive values of 'best' periods
        when sorting by periodogram power to consider them as separate periods
        (as opposed to part of the same periodogram peak). This is used to avoid
        broad peaks in the periodogram and make sure the 'best' periods returned
        are all actually independent.

    nbestpeaks : int
        The number of 'best' peaks to return from the periodogram results,
        starting from the global maximum of the periodogram peak values.

    sigclip : float or int or sequence of two floats/ints or None
        If a single float or int, a symmetric sigma-clip will be performed using
        the number provided as the sigma-multiplier to cut out from the input
        time-series.

        If a list of two ints/floats is provided, the function will perform an
        'asymmetric' sigma-clip. The first element in this list is the sigma
        value to use for fainter flux/mag values; the second element in this
        list is the sigma value to use for brighter flux/mag values. For
        example, `sigclip=[10., 3.]`, will sigclip out greater than 10-sigma
        dimmings and greater than 3-sigma brightenings. Here the meaning of
        "dimming" and "brightening" is set by *physics* (not the magnitude
        system), which is why the `magsarefluxes` kwarg must be correctly set.

        If `sigclip` is None, no sigma-clipping will be performed, and the
        time-series (with non-finite elems removed) will be passed through to
        the output.

    endp_timebase_check : bool
        If True, will check if the ``endp`` value is larger than the time-base
        of the observations. If it is, will change the ``endp`` value such that
        it is half of the time-base. If False, will allow an ``endp`` larger
        than the time-base of the observations.

    verbose : bool
        If this is True, will indicate progress and details about the frequency
        grid used for the period search.

    raiseonfail : bool
        If True, raises an exception if something goes wrong. Otherwise, returns
        None.

    Returns
    -------

    dict
        This function returns a dict, referred to as an `lspinfo` dict in other
        astrobase functions that operate on periodogram results. This is a
        standardized format across all astrobase period-finders, and is of the
        form below::

             'frequencies': the full array of frequencies considered,
             'periods': the full array of periods considered,
             'durations': the array of durations used to run BLS,
             'blsresult': Astropy BLS result object (BoxLeastSquaresResult),
             'blsmodel': Astropy BLS BoxLeastSquares object used for work,
             'stepsize': the actual stepsize used,
             'nfreq': the actual nfreq used,
             'durations': the durations array used,
             'mintransitduration': the input mintransitduration,

    '''Runs the Box Least Squares Fitting Search for transit-shaped signals.

    Breaks up the full frequency space into chunks and passes them to parallel
    BLS workers.

    Based on the version of BLS in Astropy 3.1:
    `astropy.stats.BoxLeastSquares`. If you don't have Astropy 3.1, this module
    will fail to import. Note that by default, this implementation of
    `bls_parallel_pfind` doesn't use the `.autoperiod()` function from
    `BoxLeastSquares` but uses the same auto frequency-grid generation as the
    functions in `periodbase.kbls`. If you want to use Astropy's implementation,
    set the value of `autofreq` kwarg to 'astropy'. The generated period array
    will then be broken up into chunks and sent to the individual workers.

    NOTE: the combined BLS spectrum produced by this function is not identical
    to that produced by running BLS in one shot for the entire frequency
    space. There are differences on the order of 1.0e-3 or so in the respective
    peak values, but peaks appear at the same frequencies for both methods. This
    is likely due to different aliasing caused by smaller chunks of the
    frequency space used by the parallel workers in this function. When in
    doubt, confirm results for this parallel implementation by comparing to
    those from the serial implementation above.

    In particular, when you want to get reliable estimates of the SNR, transit
    depth, duration, etc. that Astropy's BLS gives you, rerun `bls_serial_pfind`
    with `startp`, and `endp` close to the best period you want to characterize
    the transit at. The dict returned from that function contains a `blsmodel`
    key, which is the generated model from Astropy's BLS. Use the
    `.compute_stats()` method to calculate the required stats.

    Parameters
    ----------

    times,mags,errs : np.array
        The magnitude/flux time-series to search for transits.

    magsarefluxes : bool
        If the input measurement values in `mags` and `errs` are in fluxes, set
        this to True.

    startp,endp : float
        The minimum and maximum periods to consider for the transit search.

    stepsize : float
        The step-size in frequency to use when constructing a frequency grid for
        the period search.

    mintransitduration,maxtransitduration : float
        The minimum and maximum transitdurations (in units of phase) to consider
        for the transit search.

    ndurations : int
        The number of transit durations to use in the period-search.

    autofreq : bool or str
        If this is True, the values of `stepsize` and `nphasebins` will be
        ignored, and these, along with a frequency-grid, will be determined
        based on the following relations::

            nphasebins = int(ceil(2.0/mintransitduration))
            if nphasebins > 3000:
                nphasebins = 3000

            stepsize = 0.25*mintransitduration/(times.max()-times.min())

            minfreq = 1.0/endp
            maxfreq = 1.0/startp
            nfreq = int(ceil((maxfreq - minfreq)/stepsize))

        If this is False, you must set `startp`, `endp`, and `stepsize` as
        appropriate.

        If this is str == 'astropy', will use the
        `astropy.stats.BoxLeastSquares.autoperiod()` function to calculate the
        frequency grid instead of the kbls method.

    blsobjective : {'likelihood','snr'}
        Sets the type of objective to optimize in the `BoxLeastSquares.power()`
        function.

    blsmethod : {'fast','slow'}
        Sets the type of method to use in the `BoxLeastSquares.power()`
        function.

    blsoversample : {'likelihood','snr'}
        Sets the `oversample` kwarg for the `BoxLeastSquares.power()` function.

    blsmintransits : int
        Sets the `min_n_transits` kwarg for the `BoxLeastSquares.autoperiod()`
        function.

    blsfreqfactor : float
        Sets the `frequency_factor` kwarg for the `BoxLeastSquares.autoperiod()`
        function.

    periodepsilon : float
        The fractional difference between successive values of 'best' periods
        when sorting by periodogram power to consider them as separate periods
        (as opposed to part of the same periodogram peak). This is used to avoid
        broad peaks in the periodogram and make sure the 'best' periods returned
        are all actually independent.

    nbestpeaks : int
        The number of 'best' peaks to return from the periodogram results,
        starting from the global maximum of the periodogram peak values.

    sigclip : float or int or sequence of two floats/ints or None
        If a single float or int, a symmetric sigma-clip will be performed using
        the number provided as the sigma-multiplier to cut out from the input
        time-series.

        If a list of two ints/floats is provided, the function will perform an
        'asymmetric' sigma-clip. The first element in this list is the sigma
        value to use for fainter flux/mag values; the second element in this
        list is the sigma value to use for brighter flux/mag values. For
        example, `sigclip=[10., 3.]`, will sigclip out greater than 10-sigma
        dimmings and greater than 3-sigma brightenings. Here the meaning of
        "dimming" and "brightening" is set by *physics* (not the magnitude
        system), which is why the `magsarefluxes` kwarg must be correctly set.

        If `sigclip` is None, no sigma-clipping will be performed, and the
        time-series (with non-finite elems removed) will be passed through to
        the output.

    endp_timebase_check : bool
        If True, will check if the ``endp`` value is larger than the time-base
        of the observations. If it is, will change the ``endp`` value such that
        it is half of the time-base. If False, will allow an ``endp`` larger
        than the time-base of the observations.

    verbose : bool
        If this is True, will indicate progress and details about the frequency
        grid used for the period search.

    nworkers : int or None
        The number of parallel workers to launch for period-search. If None,
        nworkers = NCPUS.

    Returns
    -------

    dict
        This function returns a dict, referred to as an `lspinfo` dict in other
        astrobase functions that operate on periodogram results. This is a
        standardized format across all astrobase period-finders, and is of the
        form below::

            {'bestperiod': the best period value in the periodogram,

        flux (array): The flux array. You'll get the best results
            if this is flattened.
        flux_err (array): The array of flux uncertainties.
        periods (array): The array of periods to search over for BLS.
            For example, periods = np.linspace(0.5, 20, 10)
        durations (array): The array of durations to search over for BLS.
            For example, durations = np.linspace(0.05, 0.2, 10)
        nplanets (Optional[int]): The number of planets you'd like to search for.
            This function will interatively find and remove nplanets. Default is 1.

    Returns:
        transit_masks (list): a list of masks that correspond to the in
            transit points of each light curve. To mask out transits do
            time[~transit_masks[index]], etc.
