This python package *moead-framework* is a modular framework for multi-objective evolutionary algorithms by decomposition. 
The goal  is to provide a modular framework for scientists and researchers interested in 
experimenting with MOEA/D and its numerous variants.

The documentation is available here: [https://moead-framework.github.io/framework/](https://moead-framework.github.io/framework/html/index.html) and can be edited in the folder docs of this repository.

# Installation instructions

Create a virtual environment with [conda](https://docs.conda.io/en/latest/miniconda.html) or [virtualenv](https://packaging.python.org/guides/installing-using-pip-and-virtual-environments/#creating-a-virtual-environment)

The package is available in pypi with a linux environment for python 3.6, 3.7, 3.8 and 3.9, you can install it with:

    pip install moead-framework
    
# Example

The example requires two files : 

- ```instance_file``` is required by the [problem](https://moead-framework.github.io/framework/html/moead_framework/moead_framework.problem.combinatorial.rmnk.Rmnk.html#moead_framework.problem.combinatorial.rmnk.Rmnk). The file is available in the framework 
  in "moead_framework/test/data/instances/" or can be downloaded 
  from [https://github.com/moead-framework/data/tree/master/problem/RMNK/Instances](https://github.com/moead-framework/data/tree/master/problem/RMNK/Instances)
  
- ```weight_file``` is required by the [algorithm](https://moead-framework.github.io/framework/html/moead_framework/moead_framework.algorithm.combinatorial.moead.Moead.html#moead_framework.algorithm.combinatorial.moead.Moead). The file is available in the framework 
  in "moead_framework/test/data/weights/" or can be downloaded 
  from [https://github.com/moead-framework/data/tree/master/weights](https://github.com/moead-framework/data/tree/master/weights)
  
```python
from moead_framework.aggregation import Tchebycheff

# For developers 

## Requirements for developers

These requirements must be installed to use the commands in the following sections (unit test, documentation, package) :

    pip install -r requirements.txt

    pip install -r requirements-dev.txt

## Tests: 

You can execute unit tests with the following command in the git repository: 

    python3 -m unittest 

## Generate the documentation locally

The documentation can be generated locally if you want check changes. The documentation is generated with sphinx 2.4.4 (see the section 'Requirements for developers').

You can generate the documentation with the following commands :

    cd docs/

    make html


## Build the package

The package is built with a github action. If you want to create manually a new package: 

    python3 setup.py sdist bdist_wheel
 
    python3 -m twine upload dist/*
