Resource Management

This module provides a tool to manage dependencies on resources within a vivarium simulation. These resources take the form of things that can be created and utilized by components, for example columns in the state table or named value pipelines.

Because these resources need to be created before they can be used, they are sensitive to ordering. The intent behind this tool is to provide an interface that allows other managers to register resources with the resource manager and in turn ask for ordered sequences of these resources according to their dependencies or raise exceptions if this is not possible.
