GLIMPSE (Grid Layout Interface for Model Preview and System Exploration) v0.3.0 ✨

GLIMPSE is a graph-based web application to visualize and update GridLAB-D power grid models. The tool can be used to search and highlight power grid model objects. Additionally, it also update the model attributes and export the modified model future simulations. The application is developed using React.js, Electron.js, Node.js, and Python.

Build Instructions

Download Node and Nim

Node.js
Nim (Only if planning to export glm files updated with GLIMPSE tool)

git clone http://github.com/pnnl/GLIMPSE

cd /GLIMPSE/glimpse/

npm install

npm run watch

# on another terminal run the following: 
cd /GLIMPSE/glimpse/local-server/

python -m venv venv

In `/GLIMPSE/glimpse/local-server/` Activate Virtual Environment using the following command for your system

Platform	Shell	Command to activate virtual environment
POSIX	bash/zsh	`$ source <venv>/bin/activate`
-	fish	`$ source <venv>/bin/activate.fish`
-	csh/tcsh	`$ source <venv>/bin/activate.csh`
-	PowerShell	`$ <venv>/bin/Activate.ps1`
Windows	cmd.exe	`C:\> <venv>\Scripts\activate.bat`
-	PowerShell	`PS C:\> <venv>\Scripts\Activate.ps1`

pip install -r requirements.txt

Then in `GLIMPSE/glimpse/` run

npm run start

Example:

We provide few examples of exploring starndard IEEE bus models using GLIMPSE. From the home page, upload all the ".glm" files from data/123-bus-model.

To re-uplaod files after visualization, click on the HOME button
