cobra.manipulation.modify.convert_to_irreversible(model)

[Zhao-Beauty]

I've noticed that when using a relatively new version of cobra and running the command cobra.manipulation.modify.convert_to_irreversible(model), it reports an error saying module 'cobra.manipulation.modify' has no attribute 'convert_to_irreversible'. However, this issue doesn't occur in cobra 0.13.3. I'm wondering if there have been some updates. Could you please tell me how to implement this command in the new version of cobra? Thank you very much!

Hi, yes there have been a lot of updates. Under the hood cobrapy models are now always irreversible, so that conversion is not necessary anymore. You can get access to the forward and reverse variables though Reaction.forward_variable and Reaction.reverse_variable. All irreversible model variables can also be accessed through Model.variables.
