CoBAMP
============

*CoBAMP* (Constraint-Based Analysis of Metabolic Pathways) is a Python package containing pathway analysis methods
for use with constraint-based metabolic models. The main purpose is to provide a framework that is both modular and
flexible enough to be integrated in other packages (such as cobrapy, framed or cameo) that already implement generic
data structures for metabolic models.

CoBAMP depends on *optlang* (https://github.com/biosustain/optlang) for solving (mixed-integer) linear programming
problems, and thus, requires a compatible solver and Python dependency installed from the following list:

-  `cplex <https://www-01.ibm.com/software/commerce/optimization/cplex-optimizer/>`__ (preferred)
-  `gurobi <http://www.gurobi.com>`__ (no explicit indicator variables)
-  `glpk <https://www.gnu.org/software/glpk/>`__ (no explicit indicator variables or solution pools)

Current methods include:
   -  Elementary flux modes: K-Shortest algorithm
   -  Minimal cut sets: MCSEnumerator approach
   -  Elementary flux patterns: K-Shortest algorithm
