gurobipy-pandas documentation¶
gurobipy-pandas
is a convenient (optional) wrapper to connect
pandas with gurobipy. It enables users to more easily
and efficiently build mathematical optimization models from data stored
in DataFrames and Series, and to read solutions back directly as pandas
objects. The package provides simple to use functions and pandas
accessors to help build optimization models efficiently from data and
query solutions as pandas structures.
gurobipy-pandas
is aimed at experienced pandas users who are
familiar with methods to transform, group, and aggregate data stored in
dataframes. It expects some familiarity with optimization modelling, but
does not require deep experience with gurobipy.
Installation¶
gurobipy-pandas
can be installed directly from PyPI:
python -m pip install gurobipy-pandas
This will also install pandas and gurobipy as dependencies.
Please note that gurobipy is commercial software and requires a license. The package ships with an evaluation license which is only for testing and can only solve models of limited size. You will be able to run all the examples given in this documentation using this evaluation license.
How to use this documentation¶
The Basic Usage page provides an overview of the key methods available for creating variables and constraints in an optimization model using pandas data as input.
The Examples provide complete model implementations as Jupyter notebooks.
The API Reference provides complete reference documentation for the library.
The remaining sections (see the contents sidebar for a full listing) cover further details and techniques, and provide advice on writing clean and performant model building code using this library.
