Example for using the mosaik-docker JupyterLab extension

The mosaik-docker-demo repository contains two simulation setups that demonstrate the deployment of the mosaik co-simulation framework with Docker. To run these examples, packages mosaik-docker and Docker have to be installed. For running the examples from JupyterLab, package mosaik-docker-jl needs to be installed.

You can get the examples via git. In JupyterLab, you can open a terminal and clone the repository:

git clone https://github.com/ERIGrid2/mosaik-docker-demo.git

The repository contains two simulation setups:

• A monolithic setup is available in folder monolithic. The mosaik scenario file, all simulators and all aditional resources are added to a single Docker image. When running a simulation, a single container is instantiated from this image and executed on its own.

• A distributed setup is available in folder distributed. The mosaik scenario file and the simulators can be added to separate Docker images. When running a simulation, an individual container is instantiated from each of these images. At runtime, these containers are executed in parallel and communicate with each other (via the mosaik API).
