![PyPI - Version](https://img.shields.io/pypi/v/pyesdl)  ![PyPI - Downloads](https://img.shields.io/pypi/dm/pyESDL)  ![ReadTheDocs status](https://readthedocs.org/projects/pyesdl/badge/?version=latest)


pyESDL is a library for using ESDL in python programs. ESDL stands for Energy System Description
Language and is created to support developers creating, parsing, generating ESDL-files with the 
goal to create interoperable energy system transition tooling.

This package contains all the ESDL classes of the ESDL language and an `EnergySystemHandler`
that helps the developer to read and write ESDL-files.

The PyESDL documentation can be found here: [https://pyesdl.readthedocs.io/](https://pyesdl.readthedocs.io/)

More information about ESDL can be found at:
1. [ESDL gitbook documentation](https://energytransition.gitbook.io/esdl/) with a general introduction,
   example applications and some code samples.
2. [ESDL Model Reference documentation](https://energytransition.github.io/) that describes all the 
   classes and definitions in detail using a clickable UML diagram.

## Support functions:

PyESDL now comes with a lot of support functions for:

- handling profiles:
  - ProfileManager: reading profiles from a CSV, converting to and from esdl.DateTimeProfile or esdl.TimeSeriesProfile.
  - ExcelProfileManager: reading from and writing profiles to Excel files
  - InfluxDBProfileManager: reading from and writong profiles to InfluxDB (version 1.7)
- handling geometries: conversion to and from esdl geometries, WKT, WKB, GeoJSON, ...
- qunatity and units: unit conversion, converting a QuantityAndUnit to a string, building a QuantityAndUnit from a string

## Installing
PyESDL now comes with a lot of support functions for handling profiles, geometries and qunatity and units. This requires
additional dependencies. As not all users might need all functionalities, there are several ways to install pyESDL.

Use the following command to install the pyESDL python module including all dependencies from the PyPi registry:

`pip install pyESDL[all]`

To install the minimal version of pyESDL:

`pip install pyESDL`

To install the dependencies for additional profile functionalities (only required for support for Excel and InfluxDB):

`pip install pyESDL[profiles]`

To install the dependencies for handling geometries:

`pip install pyESDL[geometry]`

## Documentation

We will start soon with generating more documentation on [readthedocs](https://pyesdl.readthedocs.io/).

## Usage

### Example 1 - Creating an ESDL-file and saving it to disk
```python
from esdl.esdl_handler import EnergySystemHandler
from esdl import esdl
esh = EnergySystemHandler()
es = esh.create_empty_energy_system(name="ES1", es_description='Nice Energy System',
                                   inst_title='instance 1', area_title="Area 51")
print(es)
esh.save(filename="test.esdl")
```

### Example 2 - Loading an ESDL file and adding a WindTurbine to an area
```python
from esdl.esdl_handler import EnergySystemHandler
from esdl import esdl
from pprint import pprint

esh = EnergySystemHandler()
# load an ESDL file and use type hinting to help the IDE to do auto completion
es: esdl.EnergySystem = esh.load_file('test.esdl')
print(es)
# Create a WindTurbine
wind_turbine = esdl.WindTurbine(name='WindTurbine at coast', rotorDiameter=50.0, height=100.0,
                               type=esdl.WindTurbineTypeEnum.WIND_ON_COAST)

# print the wind turbines properties in ESDL as a dict
pprint(esh.attr_to_dict(wind_turbine))

# Get the area where this windturbine should be added
area51: esdl.Area = es.instance[0].area
# add the WindTurbine to the area
area51.asset.append(wind_turbine)
# save the file
esh.save()

# Give the WindTurbine a location on the map
location = esdl.Point(lat=52.6030475337285, lon=4.729614257812501)
wind_turbine.geometry = location

esh.save()
# Convert the Energy System to an XML string and print it
xml_string = esh.to_string()
print(xml_string)
```

### Converting ESDL units
Example:
```python
from esdl.units.conversion import convert_to_unit, ENERGY_IN_J, ENERGY_IN_MWh

converted = convert_to_unit(5, ENERGY_IN_MWh, ENERGY_IN_J)
18E9 == converted
>> True
```
Creating QuantityAndUnitTypes from strings is also possible using `build_qau_from_unit_string()`. 
E.g. `build_qau_from_unit_string("TWh", 'Energy')` will give you "Energy in TWh" as unit.

## Releasing
The release process is as follows:
1. Do a `git tag` with the new version number
2. Do `python setup.py sdist bdist_wheel` to create the tarball and wheel in the `dist` folder
3. upload to PyPi: `python3 -m twine upload --repository pyESDL dist/*`
