TraDemGen aims at providing a clean API, and the corresponding C++ implementation, able to generate demand for travel solutions (e.g., from JFK to PEK on 25-05-2019) according to characteristics (e.g., Willingness-To-Pay, preferred airline, etc).
TraDemGen makes an extensive use of existing open-source libraries for increased functionality, speed and accuracy. In particular the Boost (C++ Standard Extensions: https://www.boost.org) library is used.
TraDemGen is the one of the components of the Travel Market Simulator (https://travel-sim.org). However, it may be used in a stand-alone mode.
Just use DNF (or Yum on older distributions):
$ dnf -y install trademgen-devel trademgen-docYou can also get the RPM packages (which may work on Linux distributions like Suse and Mandriva) from the Fedora repository (e.g., for Fedora Rawhide, https://fr2.rpmfind.net/linux/RPM/fedora/devel/rawhide/x86_64/)
The Git repository may be cloned as following:
$ git clone [email protected]:airsim/trademgen.git trademgengit # through SSH
$ git clone https://github.com/airsim/trademgen.git # if the firewall filters SSH
$ cd trademgengitThen, you need the following packages (Fedora/RedHat/CentOS names here, but names may vary according to distributions):
- cmake
- gcc-c++
- boost-devel / libboost-dev
- python-devel / python-dev
- gettext-devel / gettext-dev
- sqlite3-devel / libsqlite3-dev
- readline-devel / readline-dev
- ncurses-devel
- soci-mysql-devel, soci-sqlite3-devel
- stdair-devel / libstdair-dev
- sevmgr-devel / libsevmgr-dev
- doxygen, ghostscript, graphviz
- tetex-latex (optional)
- rpm-build (optional)
The latest stable source tarball (trademgen*.tar.gz or .bz2) can be
found on GitHub: https://github.com/airsim/trademgen/tags
As TraDemGen depends on other Travel Market Simulator (TvlSim/AirSim) modules, more specifically StdAir and SEvMgr, it may be convenient to use the MetaSim project, which pulls at once all the components of TvlSim in the same place, and then orchestrates the dependencies for the builds, installations and use of components.
If MetaSim is not used, in order to customise the following to your environment, you can alter the path to the installation directory:
export INSTALL_BASEDIR="/home/user/dev/deliveries"
export TDG_VER="1.00.11"
if [ -d /usr/lib64 ]; then LIBSUFFIX="64"; fi
export LIBSUFFIX_4_CMAKE="-DLIB_SUFFIX=${LIBSUFFIX}"Then, as usual:
- To configure the project, type something like:
mkdir build && cd build
cmake -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=${INSTALL_BASEDIR}/trademgen-$TDG_VER \
-DWITH_SEVMGR_PREFIX=${INSTALL_BASEDIR}/sevmgr-stable \
-DWITH_STDAIR_PREFIX=${INSTALL_BASEDIR}/stdair-stable \
-DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE:STRING=Debug -DENABLE_TEST:BOOL=ON \
-DINSTALL_DOC:BOOL=ON -DRUN_GCOV:BOOL=OFF ${LIBSUFFIX_4_CMAKE} ..- To build the project, type:
make- To test the project, type:
make check- To install the library (
libtrademgen*.so*) and the binary (trademgen), just type:
make install
cd ${INSTALL_BASEDIR}
rm -f trademgen-stable && ln -s trademgen-${TDG_VER} trademgen-stable
cd -- To package the source files, type:
make dist- To package the binary and the (HTML and PDF) documentation:
make package- To browse the (just installed, if enabled) HTML documentation:
midori file://${INSTALL_BASEDIR}/trademgen-$TDG_VER/share/doc/trademgen/html/index.html- To browse the (just installed, if enabled) PDF documentation:
evince ${INSTALL_BASEDIR}/trademgen-$TDG_VER/share/doc/trademgen/html/refman.pdf- To run the local binary version:
./trademgen/trademgen -b- To run the installed version:
${INSTALL_BASEDIR}/trademgen-${TDG_VER}/bin/trademgen -b
${INSTALL_BASEDIR}/trademgen-${TDG_VER}/bin/pytrademgen
${INSTALL_BASEDIR}/trademgen-${TDG_VER}/bin/trademgen_generateDemand
${INSTALL_BASEDIR}/trademgen-${TDG_VER}/bin/trademgen_extractBookingRequests
${INSTALL_BASEDIR}/trademgen-${TDG_VER}/bin/trademgen_drawBookingArrivals
${INSTALL_BASEDIR}/trademgen-${TDG_VER}/bin/trademgen_with_dbThe way to interact with a C++-based Python extension is extensively described in the OpenTREP project. Only a quick start is given here.
- Install Python dependencies:
$ python3 -m pip install -U pip
$ python3 -m pip install -U wheel
$ python3 -m pip install -U build setuptools scikit-build tox pytest sphinx twine- Build the Python extension with SciKit-Build:
$ rm -rf _skbuild/ dist/ MANIFEST_
$ python3 setup.py --build-type=Debug build sdist bdist_wheel- The Python artifacts should be similar to:
$ ls -lFh dist/
total 7832
-rw-r--r-- 1 darnaud staff 3.4M Jun 1 17:25 trademgen-1.0.9.post1-cp38-cp38-macosx_10_15_x86_64.whl
-rw-r--r-- 1 darnaud staff 441K Jun 1 17:25 trademgen-1.0.9.post1.tar.gz- Updload the TraDemGen Python extension onto PyPi:
$ twine upload -u __token__ --repository-url https://upload.pypi.org/legacy/ dist/*- The TraDemGen Python artifacts may then be browsed on PyyPI: https://pypi.org/project/trademgen/
- Launch the Python interpreter:
$ export PYTHONPATH=${PWD}/_skbuild/macosx-10.15-x86_64-3.8/cmake-install/lib:${PWD}/_skbuild/macosx-10.15-x86_64-3.8/cmake-install/lib/python3.8/site-packages/pytrademgen

Python 3.8.3 (default, May 27 2020, 20:54:22)
[Clang 11.0.3 (clang-1103.0.32.59)] on darwin

>>> import pytrademgen
>>> trademgenLibrary = pytrademgen.Trademgener()

>>> quit()- Back to the Shell session, look for the results in the TraDemGen log file.
All the lines beginning with
