DEVSimPy is an open-source framework (GPL v3) designed for modeling and simulating discrete event systems (DEVS) with a graphical user interface. Developed in Python with wxPython, it simplifies interaction with PyDEVS and PyPDEVS models.
| Feature | Description |
|---|---|
| Graphical Modeling | Design, save, and export DEVS models easily. |
| Simulation & Analysis | Run, suspend, and analyze simulations in real-time. |
| Code Editing | Modify DEVS models on the fly. |
| Model Libraries | Import/export libraries for domain-specific applications. |
| Command-Line Execution | Run simulations via CLI with devsimpy-nogui.py. |
| Plugin System | Extend functionality with custom plugins. |
| YAML Export | Generate YAML models for DEVSimPy-mob. |
| REST API | Enable remote simulation execution via DEVSimPy-REST. |
- Python 3.10+
- wxPython 4.0+

$ pip install devsimpy
and to start:
$ devsimpy
$ git clone --recurse-submodules -b version-5.1 --depth=1 https://github.com/capocchi/DEVSimPy.git $ git fetch --unshallow $ pip install -r requirements.txt
and to start:
$ python devsimpy.py
or for macOS user:
$ pythonw devsimpy.py # Required due to wxPython dependencies- Conda Environment: Use the
conda_devsimpy_env.ymlfile. - Portable Version: Use Portable Python with PyScripter.
- Virtual Machine: Download a preconfigured XUbuntu 19.10 VM with DEVSimPy here (Login:
devsimpy-user/devsimpy).
Execute DEVSimPy models without the GUI:
$ python devsimpy-nogui.py test.dsp -sim 10 -kernel pdevs
or
$ python devsimpy.py --nogui test.dsp -sim 10 -kernel pdevs
For PyDEVS kernel:
$ python devsimpy-nogui.py test.dsp -kernel PyDEVS 10
Check CLI options:
$ python devsimpy-nogui.py -h
