🎉 We are glad to release a new version of lca_algebraic : 1.1. 🍾
Main changes :
- Update to latest Brightway 2.4.X (not Brightway25 yet). Which itself enables the use of bw2io.import_ecoinvent_release for easier import of
Ecoinvent - 📚 Added full documentation of the API + example notebook
- Renamed multiLCAAlgebraic to compute_impacts
- Added
functional_unitargument tocompute_impacts(and other functions) : removing the need to manually build custom activities normalized by the functional units, and making it more flexible. - Added returns_params argument to compute_impact, to include the values of all parameters in the result, as a tabbed dataframe that can be saved as multisheet Excel file.
- Added support for axis : Flag your activities with custom attributes (by phase, subsystem or whatever) and get the impacts split by those.
- Added computed parameters : Parameters whose default values are Sympy expressions, computed from other parameters. Their values can be overwritten.
- Added linear interpolation of several activities, based on the value of a parameter.
- Improved compatibility with ActivityBrowser : It is now possible to compute impacts / sankey diagrams, etc on a frozen database (=a given scenario of parameters). Full parametric computation of impact in ActivityBrowser works for simple cases only.
- No more conda package. Use pip instead
- Many bug fixes 🐜
👷♂️ Next to come .... stay tuned ! :
- Explicit declaration and automatic check of physical units in inventories (using Pint)
- Automatic creation of dynamic web app from a parametric model, (using streamlit)
- Migration to Brightway 2.5.
Also, we now have a dedicated mailing list for updates and discussions. Please register !
