OpenSTEF is a Python package designed for generating short-term forecasts in the energy sector. The repository includes all the essential components required for machine learning pipelines that facilitate the forecasting process. To utilize the package, users are required to furnish their own data storage and retrieval interface.
pip install openstef
A version of the pywin32 package will be installed as a secondary dependency along with the installation of the openstef package. Since conda relies on an old version of pywin32, the new installation can break conda's functionality. The following command can solve this issue:
pip install pywin32==300
For more information on this issue see the readme of pywin32 or this Github issue.
If you want to install the openstef package on Apple Silicon (Mac with M1-chip or newer), you can encounter issues with the dependencies, such as xgboost. Solution:
brew install libomp (if you haven’t installed Homebrew: follow instructions here)libomp installation in /usr/local/bin, it is probably in /opt/brew/Cellar. Run:mkdir -p /usr/local/opt/libomp/
ln -s /opt/brew/Cellar/libomp/{your_version}/lib /usr/local/opt/libomp/lib
xgboost with pip (pip uninstall xgboost) and install with conda-forge (conda install -c conda-forge xgboost)lightgbm: uninstall lightgbm with pip (pip uninstall lightgbm) and install later version with conda-forge (conda install -c conda-forge 'lightgbm>=4.2.0')To help you get started, a set of fundamental example notebooks has been created. You can access these offline examples here.
