About
=====

The aim of DHNx is to provide a toolbox for building models of
district heating/cooling systems. 

Quickstart
==========

If you have a working Python3 environment, use pypi to install the latest DHNx version:

.. code:: bash

    pip install dhnx

Install the developer version of DHNx by cloning DHNx to your computer and running

.. code:: bash

    pip install -e <path to DHNx>

in your virtualenv.

Check out the
`examples <https://github.com/oemof-heat/DHNx/tree/dev/examples>`_ to get started.

Documentation

The documentation (work in progress) can be found here
`<https://dhnx.readthedocs.io/en/latest/>`_.
To build the docs locally using sphinx-build run the following in a terminal.

.. code:: bash

    sphinx-build docs <build-dir>
