Quick Start Guide

This page provides a quick start guide for using ecoprospector with an single input .csv file. If you do not know how to configurate .csv file, please read Input Mapping File for more details on each parameter.

You can execute a experiments in a command line to quickly run an experiment. For example in Terminal on Mac, enter

$ ecoprospector mapping_file.csv 0

Where mapping_file.csv is the input csv file and i is the row (0-indexed) specifying the experiment to be run.

You can also run the above code in python. The line above is equivalent as:

from community_selection import *
from community_selection.usertools import *
assumptions = make_assumptions("mapping_file.csv", 0)
params, params_simulation , params_algorithm, plate = prepare_experiment(assumptions)
simulate_community(params = params, params_simulation = params_simulation, params_algorithm = params_algorithm, plate = plate)

The functons are described in User Tools
