This repo contains a web-based dashboard called T3CO-Go for NREL's Transportation Technology Total Cost of Ownership tool, T3CO.

Installation

For detailed instructions for setting up enviroment and other prerequisites to Installation Guide

T3CO-Go can be installed from two sources: PyPI or GitHub

Installation Source #1: PyPI

From within the Python environment, navigate to the parent directory containing the T3CO repository (cd T3CO_Go) and run:

pip install t3co-go
install_demo_inputs

This installs the tool from PyPI and copies T3CO demo input files to the current folder

Installation Source #2: From a git clone of the repository

T3CO-Go can also be installed from a clone of the GitHub repository.

First, clone the repository from GitHub from your desired directory (eg., /Users/Projects/):

git clone https://github.com/NREL/T3CO_Go.git T3CO_Go

This creates a git compliant folder 'T3CO_Go' (i.e., a '/Users/Projects/T3CO_Go' folder)

From within the Python environment, navigate to the parent directory containing the T3CO repository (cd T3CO_Go) and run this command:

pip install -e .
install_demo_inputs

This installs the tool from the repo clone and copies T3CO demo input files to the same folder

Quick Start

Go to Quick Start Guide

Starting a T3CO-Go instance

After installing T3CO-Go within a Python environment using one of the two sources, run this command:

run_t3co_go

This will open a web browser tab with T3CO prepared to run on your local machine in the background.
