Smart Python Agent Development Environment

A multi-agent systems platform written in Python and based on instant messaging (XMPP).

Develop agents that can chat both with other agents and humans.

Features

  • Multi-agent platform based on XMPP

  • Presence notification allows the system to know the current state of the agents in real-time

  • Python >=3.6

  • Asyncio-based

  • Agent model based on behaviours

  • Supports FIPA metadata using XMPP Data Forms (XEP-0004: Data Forms)

  • Web-based interface

  • Use any XMPP server

Plugins

This package was created with Cookiecutter and the audreyr/cookiecutter-pypackage project template.

History

3.1.0 (2019-03-22)

  • Agents now run in a single event loop managed by the container.

  • Behaviors can be waited for using the “join” method.

  • To check if a behaviours is done you can now use the “is_done” method.

  • The “setup” method is now a coroutine.

  • New “quit_spade” helper to stop the whole process.

  • The “start” and “stop” methods change depending on the context, since it is the container who will properly start or stop the agent. They return a coroutine or a future depending on whether they are called from a coroutine or a synchronous method.

3.0.9 (2018-10-24)

  • Added raw parameter to allow raw web responses.

  • Changed default agent urls to the “/spade” namespace to avoid conflicts.

3.0.8 (2018-10-02)

  • Added a container mechanism to speedup local sends.

  • Added performance example.

  • Improved API doc.

  • Added container tests.

3.0.7 (2018-09-27)

  • Fixed bug when running FSM states.

  • Improved Message __str__.
