Popis: Interacting dark energy (IDE) scenario is a natural and important extension to the standard $\Lambda$CDM cosmology. We develop a full numerical routine, called IDECAMB, as a patch to the public Einstein-Boltzmann solver CAMB, to solve the background and perturbation equations of the IDE models. The IDECAMB solver provides a unified interface for the widely studied IDE models by employing a parametrization model with five free functions. By configuring these five functions, one can easily map the coupled quintessence (CQ) and coupled fluid (CF) models into the parametrization. We handle the perturbation evolutions of the CF models with the parametrized post-Friedmann (PPF) approach to avoid the possible large-scale instability. Compared with the previous established PPF approach whose form depends on a specific IDE model, the PPF approach in this work are model-independent, making it easy to use. We constrain a specific CQ model with the IDECAMB package. The fitting results are consistent with those obtained by Planck Collaboration, which confirms the validity of the package.
