CouplingPhysicalModel¶

class persalys.CouplingPhysicalModel(*args)¶

File-exchange based coupling model.

This model allows one to wrap computer codes that read input values and write output values in text files. It is defined from a sequence steps, each step being defined from:

a list of input files to copy, or input files in which some variables are written
a command to launch the code
a list of output files and the associated output variables to read.

Each step is run sequentially in a temporary working directory for each input point. The name of the temporary working directory is computed from a hash of the input point.

Parameters:

namestr: Model name
inputssequence of Input: Input variables (optional)
outputssequence of Output: Output variables (optional)
stepssequence of CouplingStep: List of steps to execute (optional)

Examples

>>> import persalys
>>> import sys

input.txt is generated from the existing input_template.txt by replacing the @XN tokens:

>>> input_file = persalys.CouplingInputFile('/tmp/input_template.txt')
>>> input_file.setConfiguredPath('input.txt')
>>> input_file.setVariables(['X0', 'X1', 'X2'], ['@X0', '@X1', '@X2'], ['', '', ''])

external_program.py reads input.txt and writes output.txt:

>>> resource_file = persalys.CouplingResourceFile('external_program.py')

output variables Yj are read from output.txt and delimited by tokens, no token/line/column skipped:

>>> output_file = persalys.CouplingOutputFile('output.txt')
>>> output_file.setVariables(['Y0', 'Y1'], ['Y0=', 'Y1='], [0, 0], [0, 0], [0, 0])
>>> step = persalys.CouplingStep(sys.executable + ' external_program.py input.txt', [input_file], [resource_file], [output_file])
>>> model = persalys.CouplingPhysicalModel('A', [step])
