v0.1.0
Dynamic DES is a high-performance, real-time control plane for SimPy.
It bridges the gap between static discrete-event simulations and the live world by allowing you to update simulation parameters (arrivals, service times, capacities) and stream telemetry and events via Kafka, Redis, or PostgreSQL without stopping the simulation.
Key Features
- ⚡ Real-Time Control: Synchronize SimPy with the system clock using
DynamicRealtimeEnvironment. - 🔗 Dynamic Registry: Dynamic, path-based updates (e.g.,
Line_A.arrival.rate) that trigger instant logic changes. - 🚀 High Throughput: Optimized to handle high throughput using
orjsonand local batching. - 🔋 Flexible Resources:
DynamicResourceprovides prioritized queuing with graceful capacity shrinking. - 🔌 Modular Connectors: Plugin-based architecture for Kafka, Redis, Postgres and Local testing.
- 📊 System Observability: Built-in lag monitoring to track simulation drift from real-world time, exposed via the telemetry stream.
📚 Quick Start
Install the engine with Kafka and Dashboard support:
pip install dynamic-des[kafka,dashboard]Run the full Real-Time Digital Twin stack:
# Start Kafka cluster (requires Docker)
ddes-kafka-infra-up
# Run the simulation (new terminal)
# Ctrl + C to stop
ddes-kafka-example
# Start the dashboard (new terminal)
# Opens in browser at http://localhost:8080
# Ctrl + C to stop
ddes-kafka-dashboard
# Clean up the infrastructure
