An example simulation consists of a simple counter and a sink. The counter increments up a given value and then passes this value to a sink.
A simulation is defined using a yaml file, in which the graphing of the required components is denoted. This file defines a Counter device named counter and a Sink device named counter_sink. The output _value of counter is wired to the input of counter_sink.
- type: examples.devices.counter.Counter
name: counter
inputs: {}
- type: tickit.devices.sink.Sink
name: counter_sink
inputs:
input:
component: counter
port: _value
This file is executed to run the simulation.
python -m tickit all examples/configs/counter.yaml
The simulation will output logs depicting the incrementing of the counter:
DEBUG:examples.devices.counter:Counter initialized with value => 0
DEBUG:asyncio:Using selector: EpollSelector
DEBUG:tickit.core.management.ticker:Doing tick @ 0
DEBUG:tickit.core.components.component:counter got Input(target='counter', time=0, changes=immutables.Map({}))

The counting device is defined as below. It increments a given value and logs as it increments.
@dataclass
class Counter(ComponentConfig):
"""Simple counting device."""
def __call__(self) -> Component: # noqa: D102
return DeviceComponent(
name=self.name,
device=CounterDevice(),
)
class CounterDevice(Device):
"""A simple device which increments a value."""
class Inputs(TypedDict):
...
class Outputs(TypedDict):
value: int
def __init__(self, initial_value: int = 0, callback_period: int = int(1e9)) -> None:
self._value = initial_value
self.callback_period = SimTime(callback_period)
LOGGER.debug(f"Counter initialized with value => {self._value}")
def update(self, time: SimTime, inputs: Inputs) -> DeviceUpdate[Outputs]:
self._value = self._value + 1
LOGGER.debug(f"Counter incremented to {self._value}")
return DeviceUpdate(
CounterDevice.Outputs(value=self._value),
SimTime(time + self.callback_period),
)
