## About 
A target agnostic translator for Agents Assembly. The translator can be tested live on [Agents Assembly website](https://agents-assembly.com/translator).
It is a part of the [Agents Assembly](https://agents-assembly.com) ecosystem.
Other applications are:
- [Local Interface](https://github.com/agent-based-information-flow-simulation/local-interface) - GUI for simulation definition, management, and analysis.
- [Simulation Run Environment](https://github.com/agent-based-information-flow-simulation/simulation-run-environment) - environment for running scalable agent-based simulations.
- [Communication Server](https://github.com/agent-based-information-flow-simulation/communication-server) - cluster of servers used for XMPP communication.

## Agents Assembly 
Documentation of Agents Assembly can be read [here](DOCS.md).

## Getting Started 

### Prerequisites

```
Python 3.10
```

### Installation
The translator can be installed by running:
```
pip install aasm
```
Alternatively, you can download this repository. No additional dependencies are required.

### Usage
You can run the translator as a package. To translate *agent.aasm* to SPADE, run:
```
python -m aasm.translate agent.aasm
```

For more usage information, run:
```
python -m aasm.translate --help
```
