cDMN

Welcome to the cDMN solver's code repository.

cDMN stands for Constraint Decision and Model Notation. It is an extension to the DMN standard, managed by the Object Management Group (OMG). cDMN combines the readability and straighforwardness of DMN and the expressiveness and flexibility of constraint reasoning. For more specific details, please visit our cDMN documentation.

Examples

Example implementations can also be found in the cDMN documentation.

Installation and usage

The full installation and usage guide for the cDMN solver can be found here. In short for Linux: after cloning this repo, install the Python dependencies.

git clone https://gitlab.com/EAVISE/cdmn/cdmn-solver
cd cdmn-solver
pip3 install -r requirements.txt

After this, you can run the solver. Example usage is as follows:

python3 -O solver.py Name_Of_XLSX.xlsx -n "Name_Of_Sheet" -o output_name.idp
