Documentation

Documentation available at https://emod-hub.github.io/emod-api/.

To build the documentation locally, do the following:

  1. Create and activate a venv.
  2. Navigate to the root directory of the repo.
    python -m pip install .[docs]
    

Dependencies

Linux

emod-api can use Snappy [de]compression (python-snappy) as necessary if it is installed which requires libdev-snappy (Debian/Ubuntu) or snappy-devel (RedHat/CentOS) on Linux.

Ubuntu: [sudo] apt install libdev-snappy

CentOS: [sudo] yum install snappy-devel (not yet tested)

User Stories

Input

  • User wants to be able to create a minimal working config.json for any sim type guaranteed to work with a given Eradication binary.
  • User wants to be able to create config.json from large static 'defaults' file and small variable parameters-of-interest file.
  • User wants to be able to create guaranteed to work campaigns without having to interact with campaign.json files.
  • User wants to create a migration file without having to grok our custom binary migration format.
  • User wants to be able to create large multi-node demographics files programatically.

Output

  • User wants to be able to get post-processed (cleaned up) schema.
  • User wants to be able to get data from InsetChart.json without worrying about exact file format of the files.
  • User wants to be able to extract data of interest from spatial binary files.
  • User wants to be able to work easily with serialization files.
  • User wants to be able to work easily with (pending) events.sql file.

Dev Tips

  • To build package: python -m build --wheel

  • To install package (fill in actual version number in filename):
    python -m pip install dist/emod_api...whl

Capability Wishlist

  • Migration files: users should never have to edit migration binary or header files.
  • Serialization: Population manipulation, such as adding IPs or adding risk factors.
  • Demographics: HINT matrices should not be created directly in demographics.
  • Demographics: Population demographic initalization should be easier and reliable.
  • Config: param_overrides and custom events.

Running tests

Please see the documentation for testing.
