## What is PhysioFit?
**PhysioFit is a scientific tool designed to quantify cell growth parameters and uptake & production fluxes**

Fluxes are estimated using various mathematical models by fitting time-course measurements of the concentration of
cells and extracellular substrates and products. PhysioFit v3 includes by default the most common growth models, and
additional models can be implemented by users.

It is one of the routine tools that we use at the [MetaSys team](http://www.lisbp.fr/en/research/molecular-physiology-and-metabolism/metasys.html) 
and [MetaToul platform](http://www.metatoul.fr) in functional studies of metabolic systems.

The code is open-source, and available under a GPLv3 license. Additional information can be found in the following 
[publication](https://doi.org/10.1128/aem.00768-19).

Detailed documentation can be found online at Read the Docs 
([https://physiofit.readthedocs.io/](https://physiofit.readthedocs.io/)).

## Key features
   * **calculation of growth rate and extracellular (uptake and production) fluxes**,
   * default models for quantifying parameters in steady-state conditions (with and without lag & metabolite degradation
     over time),
   * **user-defined growth models**,
   * Monte-Carlo sensitivity analysis to **estimate the precision of the calculated fluxes**,
   * **evaluation of the goodness of fit and visual inspection of the fitted curves**,
   * shipped as a **library** with both a **graphical** and **command line** interface,
   * open-source, free and easy to install everywhere where Python 3 and pip run,
   * **biologist-friendly**.

## Quick-start
PhysioFit requires Python 3.7 or higher and run on all platforms.
Please check [the documentation](https://physiofit.readthedocs.io/en/latest/quickstart.html) for complete
installation and usage instructions.

Use `pip` to **install PhysioFit from PyPi**:

```bash
$ pip install physiofit
```

Then, start the graphical interface with:

```bash
$ physiofit
```

PhysioFit is also available directly from command-line and as a Python library.

## Bug and feature requests
If you have an idea on how we could improve PhysioFit please submit a new *issue*
to [our GitHub issue tracker](https://github.com/MetaSys-LISBP/PhysioFit/issues).


## Developers guide
### Contributions
Contributions are very welcome! :heart:

Please work on your own fork,
follow [PEP8](https://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0008/) style guide,
and make sure you pass all the tests before a pull request.

### Local install with pip
In development mode, do a `pip install -e /path/to/PhysioFit` to install
locally the development version.

### Build the documentation locally
Build the HTML documentation with:

```bash
$ cd doc
$ make html
```

The PDF documentation can be built locally by replacing `html` by `latexpdf`
in the command above. You will need a recent latex installation.
