The propagation of pulses in optical fibers is described by the generalized nonlinear Schrodinger equation (GNLSE), which takes into account the fiber losses, nonlinear effects, and higher-order chromatic dispersion. The GNLSE is a partial differential equation, whose order depends on the accounted nonlinear and dispersion effects. We present gnlse-python, a nonlinear optics modeling toolbox that contains a rich set of components and modules to solve the GNLSE using the split-step Fourier transform method (SSFM). The numerical solver is freely available, implemented in Python language, and includes a number of optical fiber analysis tools. Code and data are available at https://github.com/WUST-FOG/gnlse-python.
