PyDYN - Python Dependencies You Need

A proof of concept for a better python dependency management

Dependencies:

• PBO format compatible solver
• distribute OR setuptools installed on System
• meta.json in executing dir

How to Use:

1. Make sure the dir from which PyDYN is executed contains the meta.json file.
2. import pydyn.api - the other modules should no be used independently.
3. Instanciate an object from the pydyn.api.Problem class.
   1. The only needed parameter is the package name for which you want to calculate the dependencies.
   2. The solver argument if unchanged looks for the wbo solver (in the ./wbo/ dir).
   3. If you change it, use the same syntax you would use in the shell to execute the solver. (without options)
   4. If you change the solver argument, don't forget to change SolverOptions as well.
   5. SolverOptions is a list of comandline options for the solver. If you don't have any use an empty list. ([])
4. The Problem object has a solve() method which returns a pydyn.api.Solution object.
5. The Solution object has several methods to output the solution to the dependencie resolution problem.
