BioSimulators-compliant command-line interface to the MASSpy simulation program for kinetic simulations of metabolic reaction networks.

This command-line interface and Docker image enable users to use MASSpy to execute COMBINE/OMEX archives that describe one or more simulation experiments (in SED-ML format) of one or more kinetic models in the MASSpy schema for SBML.

A list of the algorithms and algorithm parameters supported by MASSpy is available at BioSimulators.

A simple web application and web service for using MASSpy to execute COMBINE/OMEX archives is also available at runBioSimulations.

• Python >= 3.7
• pip
• libncurses
• libxml

pip install biosimulators-masspy

docker pull ghcr.io/biosimulators/masspy

usage: biosimulators-masspy [-h] [-d] [-q] -i ARCHIVE [-o OUT_DIR] [-v]

BioSimulators-compliant command-line interface to the MASSpy simulation program <https://masspy.readthedocs.io/>.

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/masspy:latest \
    -i /root/in/modeling-study.omex \
    -o /root/out
