labscheduler 0.2.43
The python lab scheduler is an adaptive scheduler solving generalized (suited to lab demands) versions of the JSSP (Job Shop Scheduling Problem). It comes as a microservice with a SiLA and a python interface.

# PythonLab Scheduler

Generic Scheduler for Lab Automation Processes. 'Scheduling' in this sense means
taking a workflow description and a descriptions of a lab(also called job shop) and assigning timestamps and machines to the steps of the workflow in an intelligent way.

E[Job Shop]--YAML-->A;
F[Workflow]--python-->A;
G[Precedences]--make up-->F;
H[Process Steps]--make up-->F;
I[Machines]--make up-->E;
```

In other words: It solves a generalization of the
[Job Shop Scheduling Problem(JSSP)](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Job-shop_scheduling).
The main generalizations are

-   Jobs can have several operations on the same machine
-   There might be several machines of a kind
-   Time-constraints between Operations (soft and hard)
-   Machines can have capacities to do several operations in parallel
-   Jobs can intersect(i.e. operations can have precedence constraints to other jobs operations)

More precise information on this can be found [here](docs/architecture/problem_definition.md)

## Installation

    pip install labscheduler --index-url https://gitlab.com/api/v4/projects/25166382/packages/pypi/simple

## Scheduling Framework Overview

The framework is designed to be very generic:
The core scheduling algorithm can be exchanged by any scheduling concept that shall be developed, tested or used in a real world application.
The scheduler itself can be used via python import or as a micro service via SiLA.
More information in the framework can be found [here](docs/architecture/framework.md).

graph TD;
  A[User] <-- python --> B[Scheduler];
  A <-- sila_python --> C[SiLA-Client];
  C <-- SiLA --> D[SiLA-Server];
  B <--> D;
  B --> E[AlgorithmInterface];
  E -- implemented by --> F[Algorithm];
  E -- implemented by --> G[Algorithm];
  E -- implemented by --> H[Algorithm];
```

## Usage

For help in the console type

    labscheduler --help

The scheduler can be accessed via standard python import or run on a SiLA-server and accessed via a SiLA-client.
Examples can be found [here](docs/usage.rst):

## Development

    git clone gitlab.com/opensourcelab/labscheduler

    # create a virtual environment and activate it then run

    pip install -e .[dev]

    # run unittests

    invoke test   # use the invoke environment to manage development

    # commit changes: please install pre-commit hooks
    pre-commit install
