Virtual Microbe Evolutionary Simulator
pip install VirtualMicrobes==0.2.5
VirtualMicrobes is a scientific Python package that can be used to do in silico evolutionary experiments with Virtual Microbes.
pip install VirtualMicrobes
cd simulation_dir
virtualmicrobes.py evo --name MyFirstMicrobes
Then direct firefox
to file://.../simulation_dir/MyFirstMicrobes/00_webapplication.html
to observe the evolutionary trajectory of the population.
cd custom_sim
cp <INSTALL_LOCATION>/src/config_files/example_setup/* custom_sim
virtualmicrobes.py --env-from-file custom_sim/environment.env @custom_sim/general_options.cfg evo @custom_sim/evo_options.cfg --cells-from-files custom_sim/cell_1.cell custom_sim/cell_WGD.cell --name MyCustomMicrobes
Again, observe the evolution of your microbes by directing firefox
to file://.../custom_sim/MyCustomMicrobes/00_webapplication.html.
