cobra.io.dict._fix_type(value: str | float | bool | Set | Dict) str | float | bool | List | collections.OrderedDict[source]#

Convert possible types to correct Python types.

Parameters:

value (str, float, bool, set, dict) – The value to fix type for.

Returns:

The fixed type for the value.

Return type:

str, float, bool, list, dict

cobra.io.dict._update_optional(cobra_object: cobra.Object, new_dict: Dict, optional_attribute_dict: Dict, ordered_keys: Sequence) None[source]#

Update new_dict with optional attributes from cobra_object.

Parameters:
  • cobra_object (cobra.Object) – The cobra Object to update optional attributes from.

  • new_dict (dict) – The dictionary to update optional attributes for.

  • optional_attribute_dict (dict) – The dictionary to use as default value lookup store.

  • ordered_keys (list, tuple) – The keys to update values for.

Raises:
  • IndexError – If key in ordered_keys is not found in optional_attribute_dict.

  • AttributeError – If key in ordered_keys is not found in cobra_object.

cobra.io.dict._metabolite_to_dict(metabolite: cobra.core.Metabolite) collections.OrderedDict[source]#

Parameters:

reaction (cobra.Reaction) – The cobra.Reaction to convert to dictionary.

Returns:

The converted dictionary object.

Return type:

dict

See also

_reaction_from_dict

Convert a dictionary to a cobra Reaction object.

cobra.io.dict._reaction_from_dict(reaction: Dict, model: cobra.core.Model) cobra.core.Reaction[source]#

Convert a dictionary to a cobra Reaction object.

Parameters:
  • reaction (dict) – The dictionary to convert to cobra.Reaction .

  • model (cobra.Model) – The model to which the reaction should associate with.

Returns:

_reaction_to_dict

Convert a cobra Reaction object to a dictionary.

cobra.io.dict.model_to_dict(model: cobra.core.Model, sort: bool = False) collections.OrderedDict[source]#

Convert a cobra Model to a dictionary.

Parameters:
  • model (cobra.Model) – The model to reformulate as a dict.

  • sort (bool, optional) – Whether to sort the metabolites, reactions, and genes or maintain the order defined in the model (default False).

Returns:

A dictionary with keys: ‘genes’, ‘compartments’, ‘id’, ‘metabolites’, ‘notes’ and ‘reactions’; where ‘metabolites’, ‘genes’ and ‘metabolites’ are in turn lists of dictionaries holding all attributes to form the corresponding object.

Return type:

OrderedDict

See also

model_from_dict

Convert a dictionary to a cobra Model.

cobra.io.dict.model_from_dict(obj: Dict) cobra.core.Model[source]#

Build a cobra Model from a dictionary.

Models stored in JSON are first formulated as a dictionary that can be read to a cobra Model using this function.

Parameters:

obj (dict) – A dictionary with keys: ‘genes’, ‘compartments’, ‘id’, ‘metabolites’, ‘notes’ and ‘reactions’; where ‘metabolites’, ‘genes’ and ‘metabolites’ are in turn lists of dictionaries holding all attributes to form the corresponding object.

Returns:

The generated model.

Return type:

cobra.Model

Raises:

ValueError – If obj has no ‘reactions’ attribute.
