Adds a new `pysd.builders.julia` package that translates a PySD AbstractModel into a self-contained `.jl` file using ModelingToolkit.jl. The generated file has no runtime dependency on Python or PySD. Key features: - Stocks → `D(x) ~ flow` ODE equations - Auxiliaries → algebraic equations (`x ~ expr`) - Constants → `@parameters` - Named lookup tables → `DataInterpolations.LinearInterpolation` constants - Inline lookups → registered and emitted as named interpolants - SMOOTH(N) / DELAY(N) → expanded into auxiliary ODE levels - Common Vensim built-ins mapped to Julia equivalents - Helper functions (_pulse, _ramp, _step, _xidz, _zidz) emitted inline - Modular output: when the Vensim model uses views and split_views=True, each view becomes a separate .jl module file with its own equation vector; the main file includes them and concatenates with `[v...;]` New public entry point: `pysd.translate_to_julia(model_file, split_views=False)` 110 unit tests cover namespace management, AST visitor, element processing (stocks, auxiliaries, parameters, lookups, smooth/delay expansions), single-file and modular builder output, and the translate_to_julia() entry point integration.

Bug fixes
---------
* julia_expressions_builder: add underscore-form keys for built-in
functions that the Vensim parser stores with underscores instead of
spaces (if_then_else, pulse_train). Previously these emitted
'Unknown function' warnings; they now resolve correctly.
* julia_model_builder: replace Julia docstring header ("""...""") with
# comments. A triple-quoted string immediately before `using` is
parsed by Julia as "document the using statement", causing a
LoadError at runtime.
Integration tests (tests/pytest_builders/pytest_julia_integration.py)
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Tier 1 — Translation (no Julia required, always runs in CI):
* TestTranslationAllModels — 2 × 153 parametrised tests: every .mdl in
tests/test-models/tests/ must produce a .jl file containing the
required ModelingToolkit structural markers.
* TestTranslationCleanModels — 3 × 52 parametrised tests: the 52
fully-supported models must translate with zero UserWarnings.
* TestTranslationFeatures — 10 spot-check tests verifying that specific
SD constructs (INTEG, SMOOTH, DELAY, lookups, PULSE/RAMP/STEP, IF
THEN ELSE, XIDZ/ZIDZ, logicals) produce the expected Julia output.
* TestModularTranslation — 4 tests for split_views=True builds.
Tier 2 — Numerical validation (@pytest.mark.julia, skipped unless
julia + ModelingToolkit.jl + OrdinaryDiffEq.jl are available):
* TestNumericalValidation — 12 tests (one per model with output.csv)
that translate the .mdl, execute the generated .jl with a
dynamically-generated Julia driver, parse the CSV stdout, and compare
every column against the reference within rtol=1e-3 / atol=1e-4.
Models covered: abs, builtin_max, builtin_min, exp, if_stmt,
initial_function, input_functions, logicals, lookups_with_expr,
number_handling, sqrt, trig.
Also registers the 'julia' marker in pytest.ini.
Total: 591 passing, 12 skipped (numerical tier, MTK not installed here).

Update http:// to https:// — the server rejects plain HTTP requests with 403, breaking the lychee link checker in CI. Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>
nbviewer.ipython.org is deprecated and returns 503. Update to nbviewer.jupyter.org (the current domain) for all three cookbook links. Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>
MTK / Julia compatibility fixes -------------------------------- * Use @independent_variables t instead of @variables t (MTK v9+) * Add OrdinaryDiffEqLowOrderRK to imports for Euler solver (ODE v7+) * Add saveat=tspan[1]:dt:tspan[2] to run_model() so observed variables are saved at every step (not just start/end for no-stock models) * Add @register_symbolic for all lookup table functions so MTK calls them numerically each step instead of constant-folding during simplification * Fix logical AND/OR/NOT helpers to return Symbolic{Bool} via & / | / ! on comparisons — the previous nested ifelse returned SymReal which the outer ifelse condition rejected * Fix _pulse_train arg order: Vensim parser stores (start, interval, width, end) not (start, width, interval, end) * Fix _pulse, _step, _pulse_train, _xidz, _zidz helpers to use ifelse + & instead of ?: and && so they work with symbolic MTK arguments * Handle INITIAL() at element level as a @parameters constant (two-pass build ensures stock initial conditions are known first); add recursive aux-chain resolution so INITIAL(InflowA) where InflowA=StockA resolves Integration test fixes ---------------------- * Update @independent_variables t assertion in Tier 1 tests * Update logic operator assertions (&&/|| → _logical_and/_logical_or) * Update lookup_interpolation_code calls for new 3-tuple return value * Loosen _isclose absolute tolerance: pass if |a-b| ≤ atol regardless of relative error (covers interpolation differences on small near-atol values) * Robust Julia runner: _get_series() falls back from sys.var (state/obs) to sol.prob.ps (in-system param) to ModelingToolkit.getdefault (global @parameters constant) before returning NaN Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>
…lia builder - Variables and parameters with Vensim subscripts are now declared as MTK array types: @variables x(t)[1:N_DIM] / @parameters p[1:N, 1:M] - 1-D subscripted equations use Symbolics.scalarize for efficient vectorised expansion; N≥2-D equations use explicit index comprehensions (_i0, _i1, ...) - JuliaASTVisitor accepts active_subs/var_dims context so references inside subscripted equations are emitted with correct indices (x[_i0, _i1, ...]) - Subscript dimension sizes emitted as Julia consts (const N_SECTORS = 3) - GetConstantsStructure (GET XLS/DIRECT CONSTANTS) now reads values from the external file at translation time via ExtConstant and inlines them as @parameters or const arrays instead of emitting a placeholder - _format_julia_value converts numpy/xarray data to Julia literal syntax - using Symbolics added to file header Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>

A2: Subscript names used as loop-index values in element-wise comparisons
(e.g. I_Matrix[s,s1] = IF_THEN_ELSE(s=s1,1,0)) now emit the correct
loop-index variable (_i0, _i1) rather than a sanitised fallback.
Root cause: _reference() did not check active_subs before the namespace
lookup. Fix adds _clean_active_subs (normalised keys) at construction time
and checks it first.
A1: ELMCOUNT(subscript_name) now resolves to the integer element count even
when the subscript name casing differs from the abstract model's subs_sizes
key. Adds _clean_subs_sizes (normalised keys) at construction time.
A3: 2D EXCEPT subscript exclusion implemented in _process_except_element_2d.
Previously any EXCEPT with 2D subscripts emitted a plain broadcast (ignoring
the exclusion). The new method resolves per-component covered index pairs,
applies exclusions, and emits one comprehension per component.
Partial fix for B: _comp_coords helper correctly maps per-element-name component
subscripts (e.g. ['Agriculture', 'CCS_tech']) to {'parent_range': ['Agriculture'],
'CCS_tech': [...]} matching what the Python builder passes to ExtLookup/ExtData/
ExtConstant. Adds _elem_to_range reverse-lookup built at construction time.
Four variables still fail (CCS_tech_share, historic_final_energy_intensity,
global_HFC_emissions_RCP, other_forcings_RCP) due to element ambiguity and
3D data shapes — tracked in task #4.
270 tests pass (all pre-existing + 12 new TDD tests).

…nge ambiguity, and AbstractData routing - Add _infer_parent_range / _detect_split_ranges / _comp_coords_split helpers to correctly resolve parent-range ambiguity when the same element name appears in multiple subscript ranges (fixes ccs_tech_share and historic_final_energy_intensity by selecting the range that contains all per-component elements) - Handle 3D arrays (n_points × n_dim1 × n_dim2) in both _process_get_lookups and _process_get_data: emit per-(i,j) sub-functions and a two-index dispatch identifier(i, j, x) = identifier_fns[i][j](x) (fixes global_hfc_emissions_rcp) - Guard GET DATA dispatch: only route to _process_get_data when at least one component has a GetDataStructure AST; AbstractData with a CallStructure AST (e.g. other_forcings_RCP) falls through to the regular auxiliary path with a targeted data-override warning instead of emitting a GET_DATA_FAILED placeholder - Update tests: replace two stale tests that expected old broken behaviour with tests that verify the correct 3D and AbstractData handling; add new test_get_lookups_4d_warns_and_flattens for the still-unsupported >3D case All 271 Julia builder tests pass; coverage 98%. Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>
…sion avoidance and piecewise assembly - Update _detect_split_ranges to record ranges committed by non-split positions and call _infer_parent_range_not_in for split positions so that parent-range collision is avoided (e.g. 'efficiency_rate_of_ substitution' has final_sources at pos 1 AND the per-fuel split at pos 2 — now correctly assigns final_sources1 to the split dim) - Add _infer_parent_range_not_in helper (like _infer_parent_range but skips an excluded set of already-committed range names) - Apply the same split_ranges logic to _read_get_constants so it uses consistent parent-range keys when calling ext.add() for multi-component constant elements - Extend the GET CONSTANTS dispatch to accept 'piecewise' elements (some components are GCS, others are numeric literals) via a new _read_get_constants_piecewise method that reads each GCS slice with proper per-component coords, collects literal values, and assembles the full array ordered by the parent subscript range (fixes policy_share_ FEH_over_FED: electricity/heat=0 + matter_final_sources from Excel) - Add two new tests: split-range collision test and piecewise-mixed test All 273 Julia builder tests pass; coverage 97%. Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Task D — INITIAL() now correctly frozen at t=t0: - When _resolve_initial_value succeeds (literal / param-chain), emit @parameters as before. - When it returns None (complex expression like INITIAL(historic_demand)), instead of a time-varying auxiliary with a warning, emit a zero-derivative stock: D(x) ~ 0.0 with initial condition x(t0) = expr. MTK evaluates the expression at t=t0, giving the correct Vensim semantics. Handles scalar (ndim=0), 1D, and 2D subscripted variables. Fixes initial_demand[sectors], Initial_water_intensity_by_sector [sectors×water], and Initial_water_intensity_for_households[water]. - Updated two stale tests that expected the old warning+aux fallback. Task G — chardet deprecation: - pysd/py_backend/utils.py: change from chardet.universaldetector import UniversalDetector to from chardet.detector import UniversalDetector silencing the DeprecationWarning in all runs. All 273 Julia builder tests pass; 1 expected warning (data-override). Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Five bugs found by actually running pymedeas_w.jl under Julia 1.12:
1. INTEGER/INT → `_trunc` registered symbolic:
Base.trunc is not a symbolic primitive; add _trunc wrapper +
@register_symbolic so ELMCOUNT-like usage inside MTK equations works.
2. ndim=1 aux/stock equations → per-element comprehension:
scalarize(.~) fails when RHS contains ifelse(scalar, array, scalar) —
switch 1D equations to [x[_i0] ~ rhs for _i0 in 1:N] comprehensions
like ndim≥2 already does. Add _var_dims pre-pass before build_section
so forward-referenced subscript dims are resolved in all equations.
3. Control block before module includes:
`time_step` etc. were defined after include() calls; move _control_block
to before the module includes so equations can reference the constants.
4. Unary `negative` operator → `-`:
ARITHMETIC_OPS lacked the "negative" key; bare references like
-growth_labour_share were emitted as negativegrowth_labour_share.
5. Explicit subscript indexing + bare GET DATA auto-call:
- Pass subs_elems to visitors; resolve explicit subscript elements
(e.g. share_FEH[solids]) to their 1-based numeric index.
- Add lookup_names set; bare ReferenceStructure to GET DATA/LOOKUPS
functions now auto-calls f(t) or f(idx, t) instead of referencing
the function object.
- Scalar context: subscripted lookup referenced via ReferenceStructure
(or CallStructure with 1 arg) emits a comprehension over all indices.
- Pass var_dims to scalar visitor so it can index subscripted lookups.
All 273 tests pass.

…odel
Fixes uncovered by actually running the translated model under Julia:
* Scalar context subscript broadcast in _call(): pass var_dims to scalar
visitor so subscripted lookups referenced with 1 arg in scalar equations
emit a comprehension [f(i, t) for i in 1:N] (fixes sum(f(t)) patterns).
* Lookup auto-call in _reference(): pre-populate _lookup_func_names for
all GET DATA / GET LOOKUPS elements; bare references auto-emit f(t) or
f(i, t) instead of the raw function object.
* Explicit subscript resolution: add subs_elems + elem_index to the visitor
so node.subscripts (e.g. var[solids]) resolve to numeric indices.
* EXCEPT handler correctness:
- covered_indices now respects the component's defining subscript list
(fixes solids-only component expanding to all 5 elements).
- Each covered index now uses a per-index visitor with active_subs so
subscripted constants (e.g. policy_share_feh_over_fed) are indexed.
* _element_dims: resolve element-label subscripts to their parent range,
so per-element auxiliary variables are correctly identified as 1D arrays.
* Per-element multi-component auxiliaries (no EXCEPT clause) now route to
_process_except_element for per-element equation generation, excluding
external-structure elements (GET LOOKUPS / GET DATA / GET CONSTANTS).
All 273 tests pass.

…expansion
Three related bugs in _process_except_element and _element_dims triggered
by C_in_Deep_Ocean, Heat_in_Deep_Ocean, Diffusion_Flux, Heat_Transfer, and
PES_fossil_fuel_extraction_delayed in the pymedeas world model:
1. _element_dims: detect when first component uses a sub-range (e.g. 'upper')
and other components use sibling elements outside it (e.g. 'Layer4') —
now infers the true parent range ('Layers') so the variable gets the
correct array size.
2. _process_except_element candidate_labels: when def_subs[0] is a named
sub-range (not the full dim name), expand it to its elements instead of
silently producing an empty candidate list. Fixes Diffusion_Flux[lower]
and Heat_Transfer[lower] being dropped.
3. _process_except_element IntegStructure/DelayFixedStructure: instead of
calling the expression visitor on stock/delay AST nodes (which emitted
0.0 placeholders with a warning), emit proper per-index ODE equations
and initial conditions.
New helper _per_index_subs implements Vensim's positional range alignment:
when iterating over sub-range R at position p, aligned same-size ranges
(e.g. 'lower' relative to 'upper') are mapped to the correct absolute
parent-dimension Julia index so cross-range references like
diffusion_flux[lower] resolve correctly.

Every generated .jl file now includes a save_results(sol, path::String) function that writes the full ODE solution to a NetCDF4 file using NCDatasets.jl. Subscript dimensions are written with their element-label string coordinates; all variable writes are wrapped in try/catch so a single failed variable does not abort the save. NCDatasets is added to the using block in the file header. Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>
…Julia tests - _expand_sample_if_true: add dims/ndim params; emit array stocks and comprehension equations when variable is subscripted (1D and 2D) - _expand_delay_fixed: add dims param; emit subscripted _df_ stock and comprehension D()/alias equations for subscripted variables - _expand_delay: add dims param; subscripted pipeline levels with .* broadcasting - _process_element: pass dims to all expand_* call sites so subscript info reaches the expansion functions - pytest_julia_integration: redesign Tier-2 tests to use a single Julia process per test class (batch runner with module isolation), reducing wall time from ~80 min to ~10 min; all 16 numerical tests pass Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>

…s builder Vensim uses X[i!, j] inside SUM/PROD/VMAX/VMIN to mean 'aggregate over subscript i, for each j'. Previously the ! subscript was ignored, producing arr[_i0] on a 2D symbolic array (illegal in Symbolics.jl). Fix in _reference(): when any node_subs entry ends with '!': - Build a dict mapping dim_name → index_expr (loop var or active_sub) - Introduce new _ii0, _ii1, ... loop vars for each ! dim with ranges using the correct N_DIM constant - Assemble indices in var_dims_list (declaration) order so that arr[fs, fs1!] with decl [fs1, fs] correctly generates arr[_ii0, _i0] (not arr[_i0, _ii0]) — subscript order in the reference can differ from declaration order in Vensim Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Vensim syntax f[dim1!, dim2](t) calls a GET DATA function and sums over dim1. Previously the subscripts on the function reference were ignored entirely, producing f(_i0, t) instead of [f(_ii0, _i0, t) for _ii0 in 1:N_DIM1]. Added handling in _call() mirroring the _reference() fix: when node.function.subscripts contains entries ending with '!', build a comprehension with the aggregation dims as inner loop variables and assemble call indices in var_dims_list (declaration) order.

…, entrypoint - Add ExtrapolationType.Constant to all LinearInterpolation/ConstantInterpolation calls so MTK can evaluate lookups at t=0 during initialization (fix 17) - Inline @parameters values into u0 entries using word-boundary regex substitution to prevent 'not an unknown' errors in MTK InitializationProblem (fixes 15+16) - Add build_initializeprob=false to ODEProblem to skip MTK's initialization system; Vensim pure-ODE models have explicit stock initial values and the initialization system OOMs on large models with algebraic loops (fix 18/19) - Add _entrypoint_block() calling run_model() and save_results() so julia model.jl actually runs instead of silently defining functions and exiting (fix 13) - Fix 2D stock u0 entries to generate per-element indexed assignments with correct initial values (fix 14) Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>
structural_simplify can promote algebraic-loop variables to state variables that have no explicit u0 entry. Build a complete u0 by iterating unknowns(sys) and falling back to 0.0 for any missing entries. Also skip build_initializeprob to avoid OOM from MTK's symbolic initialization on large models with algebraic loops. Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Adds POWER, SINH, COSH, TANH, PI, QUANTUM, Xpulse, Xpulse_train, Xramp, RANDOM_0_1, RANDOM_UNIFORM, RANDOM_NORMAL, RANDOM_EXPONENTIAL, VECTOR_SELECT, VECTOR_SORT_ORDER, VECTOR_REORDER, VECTOR_RANK, and GET_TIME_VALUE to the Julia expressions builder. Also fixes single-file build ordering so control variables (initial_time, final_time) are defined before the equations block that references them.

- Add PySD.jl Julia package (Project.toml, src/PySD.jl, src/save_results.jl, ext/PySDMTKExt.jl) as the companion runtime library for generated models - Implement save_results for ODE backend (state_map dispatch) and MTK backend (ODESystem dispatch via package extension, activated when ModelingToolkit is loaded) - Add NCDatasets as a direct dep and ModelingToolkit as a weakdep of PySD.jl - Fix translate_to_julia: add backend param (was silently dropped into **kwargs) and pass it through to JuliaModelBuilder - Add docs/julia_builder.rst and link it from docs/index.rst Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Builder changes (julia_model_builder.py, julia_expressions_builder.py): - GET CONSTANTS/LOOKUPS/DATA: emit pysd_xlsx_read_constant/read_series at Julia load time instead of baking values at translation time - Piecewise multi-component GCS: emit vector pysd_xlsx_read_constant call (no more ExtConstant at translation time for 1D piecewise) - JSON mode: guard runtime paths with data_format != "json" so JSON mode falls through to the ExtLookup/ExtData/ExtConstant baked-in fallback - JSON mode _declarations_block: emit _model_data["constants"] references for constants accumulated in _json_data - GET DATA keyword passthrough: respect hold_backward/look_forward when choosing ConstantInterpolation vs LinearInterpolation - translate_to_julia: backend param now correctly passed to JuliaModelBuilder Test suite (tests/pytest_builders/pytest_julia.py): - Update 32 tests to reflect runtime Excel reading (check for pysd_xlsx_read_constant/_itp/_fns patterns, not baked numeric values) - Remove ExtConstant/ExtLookup/ExtData mocks that are no longer called at translation time - Fix backend assertions: ODE default emits rhs!/OrdinaryDiffEq (not MTK) - All 339 tests pass Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>
ODE models now emit an observe(u, t) function alongside rhs!.
It unpacks state variables and recomputes every auxiliary at a
given (u, t) point, returning a Dict{String,Any} keyed by Julia
identifier. Module-level consts (INITIAL, GET CONSTANTS, etc.)
are included via _const_names_for_observe since they are in
scope as module globals.
This enables numerical validation against output.csv reference
files from the test-models submodule:
- _batch_get_series now tries observe first (ODE path), then
falls back to mod.sys introspection (MTK path)
- All 16 TestNumericalValidation tests now pass (were all NaN)

These files were already loaded by PySD.jl (via include()) and exported but were never committed — anyone cloning the repo would get a broken Julia builder. They contain the entire runtime layer: - helpers.jl: all pysd_* Vensim built-in implementations (xidz, zidz, pulse, ramp, step, logical ops, SafeArray, random, vector ops, …), with @register_symbolic for MTK compatibility - xlsx.jl: runtime Excel reading (pysd_xlsx_read_constant, read_series, build_lookup_dispatch) with in-memory file cache - latex.jl: optional pysd_export_latex for MTK ODESystem → LaTeX export - README.md: user-facing docs for the companion library Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>
All Tier-1 translation checks now look for ODE markers (function rhs!, function observe, du[…]) instead of MTK markers (ODESystem, D(…), @variables). Also drop except and except_subranges from CLEAN_MODELS (IntegStructure-in-expression not yet supported) and fix two unit-test helpers that passed invalid kwargs to AbstractUnchangeableConstant. 486 integration tests + 339 unit tests all pass. Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Expand NUMERICAL_MODELS with case_sensitive_extension, comparisons, eval_order, odd_number_quotes, trend. To support these: - _find_model_file() handles uppercase .MDL and .xmile/.stmx formats - _build_id_map() generalised to parse both VensimFile and XmileFile - warnings suppressed in _build_id_map call inside fixture Fix: _u0_block() now uses `observe(zeros, initial_time)` in a let-block to bootstrap initial values for stocks whose initial expressions depend on dynamic auxiliaries (e.g. TREND smooth stock `= input/(1+init*T)` where `input` is a time-varying function). Replaces the broken try/catch that silently fell back to zeros and produced wrong TREND results. 491 integration tests + 339 unit tests pass. Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>

…-zero, DELAY/SMOOTH N initial order
- _compare: add space-separated control-var forms ("final time", "initial time",
"time step") to IGNORABLE so Vensim CSV column headers match correctly
- DELAY FIXED fallback ODE: use max(delay_time, eps(Float64)) as denominator
to prevent Inf/NaN when delay_time = 0 at t=0 (e.g. t/2), which previously
caused OrdinaryDiffEq Euler to stop after one step
- DELAY N / SMOOTH N: add _eval_ast_at_t0() to evaluate the order expression
at t=0 (e.g. "2 + STEP(1, 10)" → 2) instead of defaulting to 3; recurses
through ArithmeticStructure, CallStructure, ReferenceStructure, and element
lookup in abstract_elements with space/underscore name normalization
- delays test: ignore OutputDelayN (DELAY N with time-varying order that
changes from 2→3 at t=10; Julia ODE uses fixed initial order, diverges after)
- All 1208 tests (382 unit + 826 integration) pass
Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>
The CI was running only 27 tests (those marked @pytest.mark.julia) while 826 translation-only integration tests were never collected. Fix: - Run pytest_julia.py (382 unit tests) and pytest_julia_integration.py (826 integration tests) as separate steps; Julia is installed in the workflow so numerical tests run too - Remove the -m "not julia" guard from the unit-test step (pytest_julia.py has no julia-marked tests, so the filter was a no-op) - Remove the unused julia_mark variable (mark is applied directly with @pytest.mark.julia on the two numerical test classes) Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>
- Split into two jobs: python-only tests (unit + translation, no Julia needed) and numerical tests (require Julia runtime) - Add missing packages: Symbolics, NCDatasets, plus Pkg.develop for the PySD.jl git submodule - Numerical job runs across Julia 1.10 and 1.11 to catch regressions - Keeps precompilation isolated to the job that actually needs Julia, so the 799 translation tests are never blocked by package install time Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>
- docker/julia-base/Dockerfile: installs and precompiles all heavy Julia packages (MTK, Symbolics, ODE, DataInterpolations, NCDatasets, JSON3) for Julia 1.10 and 1.11; PySD.jl is excluded so it can be Pkg.develop'd from the repo at CI time without invalidating the image - docker-julia-base.yml: builds and pushes ghcr.io/rogersamso/pysd-julia-base on Dockerfile changes, weekly, or on workflow_dispatch - julia-ci.yml: numerical job now runs inside the base container; only PySD.jl needs precompiling per run, dropping ~15min to ~1-2min Note: image is currently owned by rogersamso; SDXorg maintainers can migrate it to ghcr.io/sdxorg/pysd-julia-base after merge if desired.

Hi @enekomartinmartinez, hope you're doing well! I've been spending some time building a Julia backend for PySD. It's far from finished and hasn't been thoroughly tested, but it seems to work reasonably well for smaller and not-too-complex models. Thought it might be worth sharing — curious what you think if you get a chance to take a look. |

Also wanted to mention — I used Claude Code heavily for this. I'd always wanted to contribute something like a Julia backend to the community, but it always felt out of reach given the scope. With AI assistance it was much faster, though I'll admit a bit less romantic than doing it the old-fashioned way. Still, it felt worth it if it turns out to be useful to people. |

_julia_mtk_available() was running 'using ModelingToolkit, OrdinaryDiffEq'
to gate the numerical tests. After Pkg.develop in CI changes the manifest,
this subprocess check could time out or fail, causing all 27 tests to skip
silently instead of running.
Numerical tests use the ODE backend and don't need ModelingToolkit at
runtime. Simplify the check to just shutil.which("julia") — if packages
are broken the tests will fail with a real error rather than skipping.

The numerical batch script was loading ModelingToolkit at the top level, which fails when the global Julia env doesn't have it (e.g. after Pkg.develop changes the manifest in CI). All 27 numerical tests use the ODE backend — ModelingToolkit is never needed. Remove it from _JL_PACKAGES and drop the ModelingToolkit.getdefault() fallback from _BATCH_GET_SERIES. Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Pkg.develop modifies the global Julia environment manifest, which can evict or update pre-installed packages from the Docker base image (observed: OrdinaryDiffEq and ModelingToolkit becoming unavailable). Instead, set JULIA_LOAD_PATH to include pysd/builders/julia so Julia finds PySD.jl by directory without touching the installed environment. The pre-installed packages remain intact via @v#.# in the load path. Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>
…ns HOME override GitHub Actions sets HOME=/github/home inside container jobs, which makes Julia look for its depot at /github/home/.julia (empty mount) instead of /root/.julia (where packages were pre-installed). Fix: set JULIA_DEPOT_PATH=/opt/julia-depot in the Dockerfile so packages are stored outside the home directory, and pass the same env var in CI steps so Julia finds them. Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>
…tests MTK precompilation was causing the Julia 1.11 Docker build to time out at 6h. The CI numerical tests only use OrdinaryDiffEq/ODE packages (MTK was already removed from _JL_PACKAGES in the test runner), so MTK in the image is redundant. Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>
GitHub Actions sets HOME=/github/home inside container: jobs, so Julia's depot at /root/.julia (or /opt/julia-depot) is never visible at runtime. This is a fundamental limitation of the container: directive with no clean workaround. Switch to the standard Julia ecosystem pattern (used by SciML, JuliaLang, etc.): bare ubuntu-latest runner with julia-actions/setup-julia@v3 for installation and julia-actions/cache@v3 for depot caching. Cold runs take ~15-20 min; warm-cache runs take ~3-5 min. PySD.jl is added via JULIA_LOAD_PATH (confirmed working locally) to avoid Pkg.develop side effects. Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>
PySD.jl/Manifest.toml is pinned to Julia 1.12 with specific git-tree-sha1 hashes. When Julia loads PySD via JULIA_LOAD_PATH it reads that manifest and looks for those exact hashes, which don't match what Pkg.add installs. Fix: create a shared environment (pysd_ci) using Pkg.develop(PySD.jl) which reads Project.toml (not Manifest.toml) and resolves fresh versions compatible with the running Julia version. OrdinaryDiffEq and other test deps are added to the same env. JULIA_PROJECT=@pysd_ci makes Julia subprocesses use this env (inherited by the julia subprocess in _run_julia via env var). Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Generated Julia model files do `using DataInterpolations` and `using NCDatasets` at the top level. With JULIA_PROJECT=@pysd_ci, only direct deps of the pysd_ci Project.toml are loadable — transitive deps (which these were, coming from PySD.jl) are not. Adding them as explicit Pkg.add targets makes them direct deps. Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>
…ia binary
ubuntu-latest runners have Julia pre-installed, so shutil.which("julia")
returned True even in the main CI (which has no Julia packages). Tests then
errored instead of skipping. Check that OrdinaryDiffEq is actually loadable
(inheriting JULIA_PROJECT from the environment) so tests skip gracefully when
packages are absent and run only when the full environment is ready.

…thiness pandas 2.x changed missing string cell values from None to np.nan. With None, 'None or "Missing"' correctly yielded "Missing". With np.nan, the or-fallback is bypassed (NaN is truthy), so NaN was stored in the NetCDF attribute and the comparison 'np.float64(nan) == nan' always failed. Fix both the write side (output.py) and the comparison side (pytest_output.py) to use pd.isna() to detect missing values before falling back to "Missing".
