simpl-calc-model - example single-player simulation model service.

Python Setup (assumes Python 3.6 and simpl-games-api server running)

Install simpl-calc-model

$ git clone https://github.com/simplworld/simpl-calc-model.git
$ cd simpl-calc-model

Local Docker Setup

The Simpl API server needs to be started first to create the simpl bridge network.

Install simpl-games-api master and run it in docker-compose so that it exposes itself as hostname api on port 8100.

You also need to have a is_staff=True user in the simpl-games-api database that corresponds to the SIMPL_GAMES_AUTH setting used here.

After you clone the repo, run:

$ docker-compose up

this will create the Docker image and run it. The first time you run it it will error as it can't find the simpl-calc game in the API.

In a separate terminal, create a shell into the simpl-calc-model container by running:

$ docker-compose run --rm model.backend bash

Once you are in the container shell, run this command:

$ ./manage.py create_default_env

You should see this create the 'simpl-calc' game, phases, users, etc.

Exit from the shell then stop and restart the docker container by running these commands:

$ exit
$ docker-compose down
$ docker-compose up

You should now see a startup log message to the effect of:

Game `simpl-calc` installed in 2.063s.

This means the simpl-calc-model is able to successfully communicate with the API.

Local Setup Without Docker

Create a virtual environment and install Python dependencies

$ mkvirtualenv simpl-calc-model
$ pip install -r requirements.txt

Run model service

$ export DJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE=simpl_calc_model.settings
$ ./manage.py run_modelservice

If you need some serious debugging help, the model_service includes the ability to do

$ ./manage.py run_modelservice --loglevel=debug

Which will turn on verbose debugging of the Autobahn/Crossbar daemon to help debug interactions between the browser and model service backend.

Run model service as 2 processes

1. Get a copy of the currently in use crossbar configuration by running ./manage.py run_modelservice --print-config > config.json
2. Edit config.json to remove the entire {"type": "guest", ...} stanza and final line
3. Run crossbar service:
   ./manage.py run_modelservice --config=./config.json --loglevel info --settings=simpl_calc_model.settings
4. In a separate terminal, run guest service:
   HOSTNAME=localhost PORT=8080 ./manage.py run_guest --settings=simpl_calc_model.settings

Run unit tests

$ pytest

Development commands:

1 - To setup up database for simpl-calc development use:

1. Creates the simpl-calc game with one phase (Play) and one role (Calculator).
2. Adds a 'default' run..
3. Adds 1 leader ('[email protected]'/'leader') to the run.
4. Adds 2 players to the run ('s#@calc.edu'/'s#' where # is between 1..2. Each player has a private scenario and period 1.
5. The run is set to 'Play' phase

execute:

$ ./manage.py create_default_env

To make it easier to recreate the default run you can pass the --reset option to delete the default run and recreate it from scratch like this:

$ ./manage.py create_default_env --reset

To create a run with a non-default name, use:

./manage.py create_default_env -n <name>

where: name is the run name (default is 'default') and the base of player email ids (default is 's')

2 - To submit a decision on a scenario:

$ ./manage.py submit_decision -s <scenario_id> -d <decision>

Modelservice Profiling

Run modelservice profiling tests locally

1. Run simpl-games-api modelservice
2. Run simpl-calc-model modelservice

In a separate terminal window,

Create and activate a virtual environment:

$ mkvirtualenv simpl-calc-model
$ pip install -r requirements.txt

Create a test run named 'a' with 2 players named after the run (e.g. run 'a' with players '[email protected]', etc)

$ ./manage.py create_default_env -n a

To run each player test once for each user in the emails/emails-2.txt file, run:

$ profile.sh -m game.profilers -u emails/emails-2.txt -g 1

to launch a separate profiling task for each email in the file:

./manage.py profile -m game.profilers -g 1 -w 2 --log-level error --user-email [email protected]
./manage.py profile -m game.profilers -g 1 -w 2 --log-level error --user-email [email protected]

Once all tasks complete, message will be printed out indicating how many seconds it took to run all profile tests

Before rerunning the profiling test, recreate the test run:

$ ./manage.py create_default_env -n a --reset
