AgentPy-rs

A Rust based implementation of the AgentPy library, to speed up both development and runtime of agent-based models.

Prerequisites

To quickly start a new project, all that you need is Nix (only the package manager, not the OS).

To install, simply run sh nix-install.sh (this will also go through some extra setup steps for you).

If you are on MacOS, please see how to setup a linux-builder (and don't forget to nix run nixpkgs#darwin.linux-builder whenever you build with Nix)

User guide

Assume that you have Nix installed, it's as easy as:

mkdir my-abm
cd my-abm
nix flake init -t github:Benni-Math/agentrs

Then, you can start developing with nix develop, or open a Jupyter Notebook with nix run ., or build a Docker image for your model with nix build .#docker.
