BioSimulators-compliant command-line interface to the PySCeS simulation program.
This command-line interface and Docker image enable users to use PySCeS to execute COMBINE/OMEX archives that describe one or more simulation experiments (in SED-ML format) of one or more models (in SBML format).
A list of the algorithms and algorithm parameters supported by PySCeS is available at BioSimulators.
A simple web application and web service for using PySCeS to execute COMBINE/OMEX archives is also available at runBioSimulations.
pip install biosimulators-pysces
docker pull ghcr.io/biosimulators/pysces
usage: biosimulators-pysces [-h] [-d] [-q] -i ARCHIVE [-o OUT_DIR] [-v]
BioSimulators-compliant command-line interface to the PySCeS simulation program <http://pysces.sourceforge.net/>.
optional arguments:
-h, --help show this help message and exit
-d, --debug full application debug mode
-q, --quiet suppress all console output
-i ARCHIVE, --archive ARCHIVE
Path to OMEX file which contains one or more SED-ML-
encoded simulation experiments
-o OUT_DIR, --out-dir OUT_DIR
Directory to save outputs
-v, --version show program's version number and exit
The entrypoint to the Docker image supports the same command-line interface described above.
For example, the following command could be used to use the Docker image to execute the COMBINE/OMEX archive ./modeling-study.omex and save its outputs to ./.
docker run \
--tty \
--rm \
--mount type=bind,source="$(pwd)",target=/root/in,readonly \
--mount type=bind,source="$(pwd)",target=/root/out \
ghcr.io/biosimulators/pysces:latest \
-i /root/in/modeling-study.omex \
-o /root/out
