Python Guide for the Systems Biology Workbench
Introduction
This document describes the Python interface to the Systems Biology Workbench (Hucka et al., 2001b).
The Python interface has been designed so that it is very simple to call remote methods in other SBW aware modules. The intention in developing the Python module was that if should enable users to easily control SBW applications using Python scripts.
In addition to providing simple access to SBW modules, the Python interface also exposes many of the functions in the standard SBW API. The reader is recommended to consult the SBW API documentation for more details. In the majority of cases, users will not find it necessary to access the SBW API directly.
When a SBW module starts, Python is notified and a Python interface is automatically constructed to represent the module, this makes it very easy to access a module’s functionality.
