simpy.core
— SimPy’s core components
Core components for event-discrete simulation environments.
- class simpy.core.Environment(initial_time: int | float = 0)
Execution environment for an event-based simulation. The passing of time is simulated by stepping from event to event.
You can provide an initial_time for the environment. By default, it starts at
0
.This class also provides aliases for common event types, for example
process
,timeout
andevent
.- schedule(event: Event, priority: EventPriority = 1, delay: int | float = 0) None
Schedule an event with a given priority and a delay.
- peek() int | float
Get the time of the next scheduled event. Return
Infinity
if there is no further event.
- step() None
Process the next event.
Raise an
EmptySchedule
if no further events are available.
- run(until: int | float | Event | None = None) Any | None
Executes
step()
until the given criterion until is met.If it is
None
(which is the default), this method will return when there are no further events to be processed.If it is an
Event
, the method will continue stepping until this event has been triggered and will return its value. Raises aRuntimeError
if there are no further events to be processed and the until event was not triggered.If it is a number, the method will continue stepping until the environment’s time reaches until.
- class simpy.core.BoundClass(cls: Type[T])
Allows classes to behave like methods.
The
__get__()
descriptor is basically identical tofunction.__get__()
and binds the first argument of thecls
to the descriptor instance.- static bind_early(instance: object) None
Bind all
BoundClass
attributes of the instance’s class to the instance itself to increase performance.
- class simpy.core.EmptySchedule
Thrown by an
Environment
if there are no further events to be processed.
