AutoLinkedBooleanVar

(class from pyomo.gdp.disjunct)

class pyomo.gdp.disjunct.AutoLinkedBooleanVar(*args, **kwds)

Bases: ScalarBooleanVar

A Boolean variable implicitly linked to its equivalent binary variable.

This class provides a deprecation path for GDP. Originally, Disjunct indicator_var was a binary variable. This simplified early transformations. However, with the introduction of a proper logical expression system, the mathematically correct approach is for the Disjunct’s indicator_var attribute to be a proper BooleanVar. As part of the transition, indicator_var attributes are instances of AutoLinkedBooleanVar, which allow the indicator_var to be used in logical expressions, but also implicitly converted (with deprecation warning) into their equivalent binary variable.

Basic operations like setting values and fixing/unfixing this variable are also automatically applied to the associated binary variable.

As this class is only intended to provide a deprecation path for Disjunct.indicator_var, it only supports Scalar instances and does not support indexing.

add(index)

Add a variable with a particular index.

as_numeric()

Return the binary variable associated with this Boolean variable.

This method returns the associated binary variable along with a deprecation warning about using the Boolean variable in a numeric context.

Construct an EquivalenceExpression between this BooleanValue and its operand.

extract_values(include_fixed_values=True)

fix(value=NOTSET, skip_validation=False)

items(sort=<SortComponents.UNSORTED: 0>, ordered=NOTSET)

Return an iterator of (index,data) component data tuples

Parameters:

• sort (bool or SortComponents) – Iterate over the declared component items in a specified sorted order. See SortComponents for valid options and descriptions.

• ordered (bool) – DEPRECATED: Please use sort=SortComponents.ORDERED_INDICES. If True, then the items are returned in a deterministic order (using the underlying set’s ordered_iter().

iteritems()

DEPRECATED.

Return a list (index,data) tuples from the dictionary

Deprecated since version 6.0: The iteritems method is deprecated. Use dict.items().

iterkeys()

DEPRECATED.

Return a list of keys in the dictionary

Deprecated since version 6.0: The iterkeys method is deprecated. Use dict.keys().

itervalues()

keys(sort=<SortComponents.UNSORTED: 0>, ordered=NOTSET)

This method sets the ordering of component data objects within this IndexedComponent container. For consistency, __init__(), values(), and items() all leverage this method to ensure consistent ordering.

Parameters:

• sort (bool or SortComponents) – Iterate over the declared component keys in a specified sorted order. See SortComponents for valid options and descriptions.

• ordered (bool) – DEPRECATED: Please use sort=SortComponents.ORDERED_INDICES. If True, then the keys are returned in a deterministic order (using the underlying set’s ordered_iter()).

model()

Return the model of the component that owns this data.

Return the parent of the component that owns this data.

parent_component()

Returns the component associated with this object.

pprint(ostream=None, verbose=False, prefix='', sort=NOTSET)

Print component information

reconstruct(data=None)

REMOVED: reconstruct() was removed in Pyomo 6.0.

Re-constructing model components was fragile and did not correctly update instances of the component used in other components or contexts (this was particularly problemmatic for Var, Param, and Set). Users who wish to reproduce the old behavior of reconstruct(), are comfortable manipulating non-public interfaces, and who take the time to verify that the correct thing happens to their model can approximate the old behavior of reconstruct with:

component.clear() component._constructed = False component.construct()

root_block()

Return self.model()

set_suffix_value(suffix_or_name, value, expand=True)

Set the suffix value for this component data

set_value(val, skip_validation=False, _propagate_value=True)

Set the value of this numeric object, after validating its value. If the ‘valid’ flag is True, then the validation step is skipped.

set_values(new_values, skip_validation=False)

Set data values from a dictionary.

The default behavior is to validate the values in the dictionary.

to_dense_data()

TODO

to_string(verbose=None, labeler=None, smap=None, compute_values=False)

Return a string representation of the expression tree.

Parameters:

• verbose (bool) – If True, then the the string representation consists of nested functions. Otherwise, the string representation is an algebraic equation. Defaults to False.

• labeler – An object that generates string labels for variables in the expression tree. Defaults to None.

Returns:

A string representation for the expression tree.

Return an iterator of the component data objects

Parameters:

• sort (bool or SortComponents) – Iterate over the declared component values in a specified sorted order. See SortComponents for valid options and descriptions.

• ordered (bool) – DEPRECATED: Please use sort=SortComponents.ORDERED_INDICES. If True, then the values are returned in a deterministic order (using the underlying set’s ordered_iter().
