 Purpose: simulates CBD models in Python.

 Requires Python version >= 2.7 or >= 3.6

Installation and Updates

The simulator can easily be installed with one of the following commands, from the src directory (one of the following options suffices).

# OPTION 1:
python setup.py install --user

# OPTION 2:
pip install .

# OPTION 3:
python -m pip install .

Note that these commands assume python and pip refer to either Python 2 or Python 3, depending on your system.

Note: Some editors allow you to "mark" a directory as a source root. Use this option in your favorite IDE to use the library in a project without the need for installing it. Alternatively, the src directory could also be added to the PYTHONPATH variable.

To update your version to the newest simulator version, obtain the latest version from the repository and run one of the above commands once more.

Documentation

Take a look at the documentation (in the doc/ folder) for more details on this framework. This includes detailed API descriptions, use cases and examples (both simple and complex).

The HTML-version of the documentation can be built from within the doc/ folder with the make html command.
