pylabrobot.resources.ResourceStack#

class pylabrobot.resources.ResourceStack(name: str, direction: str, resources: List[Resource] | None = None)#

Bases: Resource

ResourceStack represent a group of resources that are stacked together and act as a single unit. Stacks can grow be configured to be able to grow in x, y, or z direction. Stacks growing in the x direction are from left to right. Stacks growing in the y direction are from front to back. Stacks growing in the z direction are from bottom to top, and function as the stack data type <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stack_(abstract_data_type)>.

Variables:

  • name – The name of the resource group.

  • location – The location of the resource group. This will be the location of the first resource in the group.

  • category – The category of the resource group.

  • resources – The resources in the resource group.

Parameters:

Examples

Making a resource group containing two resources:

>>> stack = ResourceStack(“patched_plate”, "z", [
...   Resource("plate1", size_x=1, size_y=1, size_z=10),
...   Resource("plate2", size_x=1, size_y=1, size_z=10),
... ])
>>> stack.get_size_x()
1
>>> stack.get_size_z()
30

Moving a plate to the a stacking area.

>>> lh.move_plate(plate, stacking_area)

Moving a lid to the stacking area.

>>> lh.move_lid(plate.lid, stacking_area)

Getting a plate from the stacking area and moving it to a PlateCarrier.

>>> lh.move_plate(stacking_area.get_top_item(), plt_car[0])
