A Python-based toolkit for analyzing ensemble performance data.

To use thicket, install it with pip:

$ pip install llnl-thicket

Or, if you want to develop with this repo directly, run the install script from the root directory, which will build the package and add the cloned directory to your PYTHONPATH:

$ source install.sh

Thicket provides an interactive visualization which can be run inside of your Jupyter notebooks. It is dependent on different mechanism for building, which we describe here.

The software in the thicket/vis subdirectory (i.e., the thicket.vis package) requires Node.js and the Node Package Manager (NPM) for the development and building of JavaScript code.

If you are just using our built-in visualizations, the visualization code will be built automatically when you access the thicket.vis module. All that users have to do is make sure they have NPM installed. If NPM is not installed, accessing the thicket.vis module will raise a FileNotFoundError.

If you are developing a visualization, it is recommended that you build the visualization code manually. To manually build this code, follow the instructions below.

Once you have Node and NPM installed on your system, you can install all necessary node packages by running the following line in your terminal from the thicket/vis directory:

npm install

To build out JavaScript into the static bundles used by the Jupyter visualizations, run the following line from the thicket/vis directory in your terminal:

npm run build

Alternatively, you can run the following line to force bundles to automatically update when you change the JavaScript source code:

npm run watch
