Python code that implements the **active-finite-Voronoi (AFV) model** in 2D.
The AFV framework was introduced and developed in, for example, Refs. [[1](#huang2023bridging)&ndash;[3](#wang2026divergence)].


## Installation

**PyAFV** is available on **PyPI** and can be installed using *pip* directly:
```bash
pip install pyafv
```
The package supports Python ≥ 3.10 and < 3.15, including Python 3.14t (the free-threaded, no-GIL build).
To verify that the installation was successful and that the correct version is installed, run the following in Python:
```python
import pyafv
print(pyafv.__version__)
```

> On some HPC clusters, global Python path can contaminate the runtime environment. You may need to clear it explicitly using `unset PYTHONPATH` or prefixing the *pip* command with `PYTHONPATH=""`.

### Install from source

Installing from source can be necessary if *pip* installation does not work. First, download and unzip the source code, then navigate to the root directory of the package and run:
```bash
pip install .
```

> **Note:** A C/C++ compiler is required if you are building from source, since some components of **PyAFV** are implemented in Cython for performance optimization.


#### Windows MinGW GCC

If you are using **MinGW GCC** (rather than **MSVC**) on *Windows*, to build from the source code, add a `setup.cfg` file at the repository root before running `pip install .` with the following content:
```ini
# setup.cfg
[build_ext]
compiler=mingw32
```


### Install offline

If you need to install **PyAFV** on a machine without internet access, you can download the corresponding wheel file from **PyPI** and transfer it to the target machine, and then run the following command to install using *pip*:
```bash
pip install pyafv-<version>-<platform>.whl
```
Alternatively, you can build **PyAFV** from source as described in the previous section. In this case, in addition to the required prerequisites of the package, the build-time dependencies **hatchling** and **hatch-cython** must also be available.


### Install using Docker

Pull the Docker image from **Docker Hub**:
```bash
docker pull wwang721/pyafv:latest
```
It's also available in the **GitHub Container Registry (GHCR)** under [**GitHub Packages**](https://github.com/wwang721/pyafv/pkgs/container/pyafv); use `ghcr.io/wwang721/pyafv` to pull from GHCR instead.
Then run Python scripts with `pyafv` using:
```bash
docker run --rm -v $(pwd):/app wwang721/pyafv python <script_name>.py
```
Use `${PWD}` on Windows PowerShell instead of `$(pwd)`.


## Usage

[![Open In Colab](https://colab.research.google.com/assets/colab-badge.svg)](https://colab.research.google.com/github/pyafv/assets/blob/main/jupyter/getting_started.ipynb)

Here is a simple example to get you started, demonstrating how to construct a finite-Voronoi diagram (click the **Google Colab** badge above to run the notebook directly):
```python
import numpy as np
import pyafv as afv

N = 100                                          # number of cells
pts = np.random.rand(N, 2) * 10                  # initial positions
params = afv.PhysicalParams()                    # use default parameter values
sim = afv.FiniteVoronoiSimulator(pts, params)    # initialize the simulator
sim.plot_2d(show=True)                           # visualize the Voronoi diagram
```
To compute the conservative forces and extract detailed geometric information (e.g., cell areas, vertices, and edges), call:
```python
diag = sim.build()
```
The returned object `diag` is a Python `dict` containing these quantities.
