Further analysis of the maintenance status of dfba based on released PyPI versions cadence, the repository activity, and other data points determined that its maintenance is Inactive.

An important project maintenance signal to consider for dfba is that it hasn't seen any new versions released to PyPI in the past 12 months, and could be considered as a discontinued project, or that which receives low attention from its maintainers.

As a healthy sign for on-going project maintenance, we found that the GitHub repository had at least 1 pull request or issue interacted with by the community.

Readme

Dynamic Flux Balance Analysis

This project provides an object-oriented software package for dynamic flux-balance analysis (DFBA) simulations using implementations of the direct method or Algorithm 1 described in the paper Harwood et al., 2016. The main algorithms for solving embedded LP problems are written in C++ and use the GNU Linear Programming Kit (GLPK) and the Suite of Nonlinear and Differential/Algebraic Equation Solvers (SUNDIALS) CVODE or IDA. Extension modules to cobrapy are provided for easy generation and simulation of DFBA models.

Installation

Currently, we do not provide Python wheels for this package and therefore Installing from source is a bit more involved. The quickest way to run the software is from the provided Docker image:

docker run --rm -it davidtourigny/dfba:latest

Installing from source

Currently this package is compatible with most UNIX-like operating systems. Provided the following Dependencies are installed, the module can be installed from the root of the repository using the command:

pip install .

Dependencies

A version of Python 3.6 or higher is required
You need cmake for the build process
You will need git to clone this repository to access the scripts and build files
You need a working compiler with C++11 support, for example, by installing build-essential on Debian-derived Linux systems
GLPK version 4.65 is required or can be installed using build_glpk.sh
SUNDIALS version 5.0.0 or higher is required or can be installed using build_sundials.sh
pybind11 is required or can be installed using build_pybind11.sh

Be aware that some of these packages have their own dependencies that must therefore be installed also (e.g. GLPK depends on GMP and pybind11 requires pytest).

Alternatively, a Dockerfile is provided for building a Docker image to run the software from an interactive container. The Docker image can be built in one step by issuing the command:

make build

from the root of this repository. It can then be started using:

make run
