Hi Julia,

If you are interested in propagation in the presence of weak 
nonlinearity then you can do it perturbatively based on linear band 
structure calculations with MPB.  This involves mode overlap integrals 
using the function |(integrate-fields ...)|.  For example this sort of 
thing is done in Phys. Rev. E *69*, 016604 (2004) and Physical Review E 
*64*, 056604 (2001). 

Cheers,

Navin
