Dependencies

The simulator has a dependency system which allows you to specify dependencies for certain classes in the simulation system.

When talking about 'classes' we currently have 5 options:

  • Agents
  • Environments
  • Strategies
  • Metrics
  • Protocols

Each of these classes is separately a code structure that implements the respective interfaces that are made available from the Simulation SDK. And also includes a almanak-library.yaml file which defines some variables that are used by the simulator to run these code files.

A typical folder structure looks like this

.
├── agent
│   ├── defi
│   │   ├── almanak-library.yaml
│   │   └── main.py
│   ├── liquidator
│   │   ├── almanak-library.yaml
│   │   └── main.py
│   └── simple_borrow_agent
│       ├── almanak-library.yaml
│       └── main.py
└── configuration.yaml

This example shows how 3 different agents are implemented but this will work similarly for the other classes.

Subdependencies​

Most classes support subdependencies which can be configured in the almanak-library.yaml file. Depending on which class it can support different dependencies (different versions for example) depending on certain conditions; which chain is it running on in particular.
