nineml.abstraction_layer.component.AnalogPort

class nineml.abstraction_layer.component.AnalogPort(name, mode='send', reduce_op=None)

AnalogPort

An AnalogPort represents a continuous input or output to/from a Component. For example, this could be the membrane-voltage into a synapse component, or the current provided by a ion-channel.

__init__(name, mode='send', reduce_op=None)

Port Constructor.

Parameters:

• name – The name of the port, as a string
• mode – The mode of the port, which should be a string as either, send,``recv`` or reduce.
• reduce_op – This should be None unless the mode is reduce. If the mode is reduce, then this must be a supported reduce_op

Note

Currently support reduce_op s are: +.

Methods

__init__(name[, mode, reduce_op])	Port Constructor.
accept_visitor(visitor, **kwargs)	link to something about visitation.
is_incoming()	Returns True if the port’s mode is ‘recv’ or ‘reduce’
is_outgoing()	Returns True if the port’s mode is ‘send’

Attributes

mode	The mode of the port.
name	The name of the port, local to the current component
reduce_op	The reduce operation of the port, if it is a ‘reduce’ port
