gamslib

Overview

The gamslib library provides reusable modules for GAMS related software. GAMS is the Geisteswissenschaftliches Asset Management System, developed at Graz University (https://gams.uni-graz.at).

The package consists of several sub packages:

• formatdetect: Functions to identify file formats based on file content. Provides multiple detectors, which can be configured in the project configuration (e.g. pyproject.toml).
• gamsconfig: Tools for managing GAMS package configuration, including reading from pyproject.toml and validating configuration settings.
• objectcsv: Tools for reading, writing, validating, and managing object and datastream metadata in CSV format for GAMS objects. Supports batch editing, conversion to XLSX, and metadata aggregation.
• sip: Tools for creating, validating, and managing Submission Information Packages (SIPs) in accordance with GAMS and DSA standards.

Other modules may be added to support common tasks across GAMS packages.

Installation

gamlib is avaiable via pypi (). Use your package manager to install it like any other package from pypi:

pip install gamslib

or, if you prefer uv:

uv install gamslib

If you rely the (depricated) Magika Detector, use uv install gamslib[magika] instead.

Normally an explicit installation only makes sense for developers. For normal users, gamslib should be set as depenency in the programs using the library.

Contributing

The Github repository under https://github.com/dhgraz/gamslib/ is ment to be a read only mirror of the work repository hosted on our institutional private GitLab server. You can use the bug tracker on Github, but everything else should happen in the Zimlab Github repo.
