## Installation

There are 2 options for installing WEI:

- A bare-metal install, which can be used in most contexts where python can run.
- A containerized install using docker and docker-compose

### Bare-Metal Install

1. Clone the repository.
2. If using WEI as a library (for instance, as a dependency for a specific module), skip to step 5.
3. If you intend to run the WEI engine and server, install [Redis](https://redis.io/docs/getting-started/)
4. If you intend to run the examples, you'll need to install [TMUX](https://github.com/tmux/tmux/wiki/Installing)
5. Within the cloned repository, run the following:

```
sudo apt install redis
sudo apt install tmux
pip3 install --upgrade pip
git clone https://github.com/AD-SDL/wei/
cd wei
# For just WEI and its core dependencies
pip3 install -e .
# Or, with support for the examples:
pip3 install -e '.[examples]'
```

### Docker Install

1. [Install Docker](https://docs.docker.com/engine/install/) for your platform of choice
2. Clone the repository.
3. Within the cloned repository, run the following:

```
docker/build_wei.sh
```

## Usage

### Running the Examples (Bare-Metal Install)

1. Run `examples/run_examples.sh`
2. In the corresponding TMUX session, you should see a number of windows corresponding to each component of WEI. Check each tab to ensure the servers are up and operating properly
3. In the last window, you should see a python command pre-populated. Press enter to run this example experiment script
5. If you have an attached webcam, you can change the `SIMULATED` flag in `examples/experiment_example.py` to False to test taking an actual picture.

### Running the Examples (Docker Install)

1. Run `docker/start_wei.sh`
2. In your browser, navigate to `localhost:8888`
3. Enter `wei` as the token
4. Navigate to `examples/experiment_example.ipynb` and run the cells in the Jupyter Notebook to run an example WEI Experiment
5. If you have an attached webcam, you can change the `SIMULATED` flag to False to test taking an actual picture.

## Development

1. First, install [pdm](https://pdm-project.org/latest/#installation).
2. Next, run the following in the cloned repo's directory:

```
pip install pre-commit ruff
pdm install
pre-commit install
```

### Using Pre-commit

- To run pre-commit checks before committing, run `pre-commit run --all-files`
- NONE OF THE FOLLOWING SHOULD BE DONE REGULARLY, AND ALL CHECKS SHOULD BE PASSING BEFORE BRANCHES ARE MERGED
    - To skip linting during commits, use `SKIP=ruff git commit ...`
    - To skip formatting during commits, use `SKIP=ruff-format git commit ...`
    - To skip all pre-commit hooks, use `git commit --no-verify ...`
- See [pre-commit documentation](https://pre-commit.com) for more

### Using pdm

- [Managing Dependencies](https://pdm-project.org/latest/usage/dependency/)
- [Build and Publish](https://pdm-project.org/latest/usage/publish/)
- [Running Using PDM](https://pdm-project.org/latest/usage/scripts/)
  - `pdm run engine <args>` to start the WEI engine
  - `pdm run server <args>` to start the WEI server
  - `pdm run <arbitrary command>` to run an arbitrary command inside the python environment

abstract  ="Advances in robotic automation{,} high-performance computing (HPC){,} and artificial intelligence (AI) encourage us to conceive of science factories: large{,} general-purpose computation- and AI-enabled self-driving laboratories (SDLs) with the generality and scale needed both to tackle large discovery problems and to support thousands of scientists. Science factories require modular hardware and software that can be replicated for scale and (re)configured to support many applications. To this end{,} we propose a prototype modular science factory architecture in which reconfigurable modules encapsulating scientific instruments are linked with manipulators to form workcells{,} that can themselves be combined to form larger assemblages{,} and linked with distributed computing for simulation{,} AI model training and inference{,} and related tasks. Workflows that perform sets of actions on modules can be specified{,} and various applications{,} comprising workflows plus associated computational and data manipulation steps{,} can be run concurrently. We report on our experiences prototyping this architecture and applying it in experiments involving 15 different robotic apparatus{,} five applications (one in education{,} two in biology{,} two in materials){,} and a variety of workflows{,} across four laboratories. We describe the reuse of modules{,} workcells{,} and workflows in different applications{,} the migration of applications between workcells{,} and the use of digital twins{,} and suggest directions for future work aimed at yet more generality and scalability. Code and data are available at https://ad-sdl.github.io/wei2023 and in the ESI."}
