# PrimAITE
## About The Project
PrimAITE (**PrimAITE**) simulation environment for training AI under the ARCD programme.It incorporates the functionality required
of a Primary-level environment, as specified in the Dstl ARCD Training Environment
**PrimAITE** is currently under a closed development stage.
## What's PrimAITE built with
- [OpenAI's Gym](https://gym.openai.com/)
- [Networkx](https://github.com/networkx/networkx)
- [Stable Baselines 3](https://github.com/DLR-RM/stable-baselines3)
- [Rllib (part of Ray)](https://github.com/ray-project/ray)
## Getting Started with PrimAITE
### Pre-Requisites
In order to get **PrimAITE** installed, you will need to have the following installed:
- `python3.8+`
- `python3-pip`
- `virtualenv`
**PrimAITE** is designed to be OS-agnostic, and thus should work on most variations/distros of Linux, Windows, and MacOS.
### Installation from source
#### 1. Navigate to the PrimAITE folder and create a new python virtual environment (venv)
```unix
python3 -m venv <name_of_venv>
```
#### 2. Activate the venv
##### Unix
```bash
source <name_of_venv>/bin/activate
```
##### Windows
```powershell
.\<name_of_venv>\Scripts\activate
```
#### 3. Install `PrimAITE` into the venv along with all of it's dependencies
```bash
python3 -m pip install -e .
```
This will install all the dependencies including algorithm libraries. These libraries
all use `torch`. If you'd like to install `tensorflow` for use with Rllib, you can do this manually
or install `tensorflow` as an optional dependency by postfixing the command in step 3 above with the `[tensorflow]` extra. Example:
To see all PrimAITE dependencies have a look at the dependencies page (:ref:`Dependencies`)
```bash
python3 -m pip install -e .[tensorflow]
```
### Development Installation
To install the development dependencies, postfix the command in step 3 above with the `[dev]` extra. Example:
```bash
python3 -m pip install -e .[dev]
```
