RidePy is a scientific Python library for simulating modern on-demand transit systems such as ridepooling.

In short: RidePy simulates a dispatching algorithm serving exogenous transportation requests with a fleet of vehicles. Does not simulate the universe, unlike MATSim. Batteries are included.

Quickstart

For detailed instructions, see the installation guide in the documentation.

If you’re in a hurry, here’s the gist:

• RidePy currently works best with Python 3.9

• If you are on platform other than x86-64 Linux, i.e., one that we don’t offer wheels for, you will need to first set up a C++ build environment and the Boost C++ libraries. On Debian-like systems, this is easily accomplished with

sudo apt-get install build-essential libboost-all-dev

• Install RidePy with

pip install ridepy
